After Dark is Bushbalm's brightening gel formulated with tranexamic acid and niacinamide to target dark spots and uneven tone, particularly in areas like the bikini line and underarms where friction and hair removal cause discoloration. Aloe vera helps offset any irritation, and the brand's own testing found visible improvement in dark spots within about four weeks.
