Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad

These curved pads carry 5% niacinamide and tranexamic acid to fade the look of dark spots and post-breakout marks, shaped specifically to sit against areas like the under-eyes and cheekbones. A mix of seven peptides is folded in to support elasticity and moisture alongside the brightening actives, and betaine salicylate offers mild exfoliation. Anua recommends leaving them on like a mask for up to 20 minutes before smoothing the residue into skin.
