Glow-Signal TXA Serum 4.0, Why "4.0"?+
Same logic as the Capsule Crème's naming, different four: Tranexamic Acid, NAG, Niacinamide, and Chlorophyll, four actives working on pigment and redness from different angles. Serum and Crème share the "4.0" name because together they're built as one system, not two separate products that happen to rhyme.
Is Tranexamic Acid safe to use every day?+
Yes, at the 3% concentration used here, TXA is well-tolerated for daily topical use and works upstream of pigment formation rather than through exfoliation, so there's no cumulative irritation risk like with acids.
What is Tranexamic Acid (TXA) and how does it differ from Vitamin C?+
While Vitamin C is a great antioxidant, TXA is a powerful "Pigment Interceptor" that targets the inflammatory pathway to stop melanin before it forms. It is significantly more stable in humid climates and less irritating than high-percentage Vitamin C or Retinol
Why is the serum green?+
The green hue is 100% natural, derived from Chlorophyll. It acts as a functional antioxidant that neutralizes surface redness while the TXA works on deeper pigmentation
Is it safe for sensitive Indian skin?+
Yes. By utilizing a base of Aloevera and Licorice extract, we ensure the formula is anti-inflammatory and soothing, preventing the "rebound" darkening often caused by harsh acids.
Can I use this serum along with Vitamin C or Retinol?+
Generally yes, though we'd suggest alternating Retinol to a separate part of your routine (e.g., PM only) to avoid overloading your barrier. Introduce one new active at a time.
Will this serum help with acne scars, or just sun-related dark spots?+
It's formulated to work on pigmentation regardless of what triggered it, sun exposure, old acne marks, or inflammation-driven dark spots all follow the same melanin-signaling pathway this serum is designed to interrupt.
How is TXA different from Kojic Acid or Alpha Arbutin?+
TXA works on the inflammatory signal that triggers pigment production; Kojic Acid and Alpha Arbutin work by inhibiting the enzyme (tyrosinase) that produces melanin. This serum combines TXA with NAG for both mechanisms at once.
Can I use this serum if I have oily or acne-prone skin?+
Yes, Tranexamic Acid isn't comedogenic, and this serum's gel texture is lightweight and non-greasy, so it layers well under other oily-skin-friendly products without adding heaviness.
Can I use this under makeup?+
Yes, it absorbs fully within a minute or two and leaves a smooth base that won't interfere with makeup application.adding heaviness.
Can I use this if I'm also using the Capsule Crème, isn't that repetitive?+
Not repetitive, complementary. The serum focuses on signal interception at a lighter, faster-absorbing concentration; the Capsule Crème adds a denser, barrier-supporting layer with additional actives like Alpha-Arbutin and Glutathione. Used together, they work at different depths and speeds
