KEY INGREDIENTS
Our advanced brightening formula is powered by:
UP302
Researchers screened over two thousand plant extracts and found dianella ensifolia to have powerful properties. UP302, Clinique’s proprietary brightening molecule, was bioengineered to mimic the botanical and found to have powerful antioxidant and brightening benefits.
Vitamin C
This serum is made with two types of vitamin C—magnesium ascorbyl phosphate and ascorbyl glucoside—for precisely calibrated formulation. Together these potent brightening antioxidants help visibly reduce dark spots, including post-acne marks, and help skin tone look more even.
Pure niacinamide
Helps visibly reduce discoloration such as dark spots and post-acne marks.
Salicylic acid
Gently sloughs off the uppermost layers of the skin to help reveal fresher, more even-looking skin.
Glucosamine
Helps weaken the bonds that hold dead skin cells together to encourage the exfoliation of surface discoloration for brighter, more even-looking skin.
And it’s balanced by:
Glycyrrhetinic acid, derived from licorice extract
A potent anti-irritant, it helps calm skin by visibly reducing skin irritation that could trigger dark spots.
Gyokuro
This green tea is hand-harvested in Japan in such a way that its natural anti-irritant properties are optimized for full potential. Helps quell the look of irritation that could lead to discoloration.
