    As an asian, we really care about skin brightening.
    A lot of my skincare products contain the ingredients mentioned.
    These are what i've used. All of these are Korean products except The Ordinary. It's not i don't use western skincare at all, but when it comes to brightening product, it seems that asian skincare have more potent brightening ingredient 😅
    I have tons of products that i have tried but i list down products that have the mentioned ingredients located at top 5 in their ingredient list.
    ...
    Vitamin C: Tia'm C Source Serum (Contain 20% L-ascorbic acid), Some By Mi Yuja Niacin Serum (Contain 82.3% Yuja fruit)
    Hydroquinone: Cos De Baha 2% Hydroquinone Brightening Serum.
    Kojic Acid: Cos De Baha 2% Hydroquinone Brightening Serum.
    Azelaic Acid: Cos De Baha 10% Azelaic Acid Serum.
    Vitamin A: The Ordinary Retinol.
    Salicylic Acid: Cosrx Blackhead Power Liquid (4% Natural BHA consists of willow bark water as the 1st ingredient and Betaine Salicylate as the 3rd), Cos De Baha Salacylic Acid BHA 4% Serum
    Licorice Root: Acwell Licorice pH Balancing Cleansing Toner (This have 10% Licorice root extract as 2nd ingredient after water).
    Niacinamide: Tia'm 10% Niacinamide+2% Arbutin, The Ordinary 10% Niacinamide+1% Zinc.
    Sunscreen: Purito Centella Green Level Unscented
    ...
    The most powerful brightening product goes to Cos De Baha Hydroquinone Brightening Serum. This serum alone contains a lot of actives mainly for brightening which is 2% Hydroquinone, 4% Azelaic Acid, 4% Niacinamide, Kojic Acid, Salacylic Acid, Lactic Acid, Hyaluronic Acid.
    I used this for spot treatment and it works wonder😭
    ...
    Sorry, most of them are unfamiliar to you, but i suggest you to try them since they are very cheap yet effective!!!
    If you don't know what to choose among the list, I suggest you to try Tia'm C Source Serum, Cos De Baha Hydroquinone Brightening Serum and Cos De Baha Azelaic Acid Serum.
    The Tia'm C Source Serum is for people who are familiar with vitamin C as it's too potent. Otherwise, i suggest you to try their niacinamide one as it did brightened my friend's face significantly while he has sensitive skin.
    Hope it helps whoever read this 😁

      Dr Dray hello why you never discuss taking medicine to calm & balance hormones most melasma occurs due to imbalance hormones please discuss tablets to take for melasma putting things on top layer of skin doesn’t help much. Thats why melasma always comes back. You have to control the hormones otherwise buying skincare products is just waste of money

Still got my wrinkles and spots but the quality of my skin is glowing and supple. I really don't think there is much you can do about the natural effects of age.....I just live with them and use a light to medium coverage foundation when I feel like it NOT full because I'd rather have real looking skin than a mask.....right?

    I just wanted to tell you that I brought you up to her and she really appreciates you for the information you're providing people regarding skincare and such.

      Monica Newton those sunscreens sting my face! I can only use zinc sunscreens. I have tried quite a few, from the drugstore, and from YesStyle and Korean brands but the only one i really like that has spf 50 is heliocare 360. Most mineral sunscreens unfortunately dry me out and so far this is the only one that doesnt. La roche posay has a mineral colour correcter for people with rosacea and fair skin with spf 30 that i plan on trying as the days get shorter.

    I have had incredible results with Vitamin C, but I do sometimes have oxidation issues. I've tried Drunk Elephant, Tarte (my current fave), Glow Recipe, Timeless, REN, Mad Hippie and Sunday Riley. Timeless has one that is effective, cosmetically elegant, has air tight packaging, doesn't oxidize and is less than $20.00 in the US. Dr. Brenner has one also under $20.00, that is almost identical to the $135.00 Skinceuticals C Ferulic. I use my AHA right before I apply my Vitamin C, as that seems to help it absorb better.
