  The Alpha-Arbutin 2 Discoloration Care Serum

  I use this around my period or when I get acne, and since I haven't gotten any noticeable acne scars since I started using it, I wonder if that's thanks to this? It seems to work on dark spots, freckles, and skin clarity too, but I don't use it every day, so I can't really say. Also, I use it specifically for its soothing effect, so it's not particularly moisturizing or anything. I think it's good to apply it to my skin as a precaution when my skin is acting up, then get moisture from other skincare products. I'll keep counting on its soothing effect!

  Advanced Brightening Serum

  This is a brightening serum I used and loved for about 5 years! I started using it when I began noticing dark spots, and although I sometimes strayed and tried other brightening serums along the way, I ended up using this one for a long time I used it for about 5 years, from age 33 to 38, and really felt like it kept my dark spots from getting worse. Rather than caring for existing dark spots, I used it because I felt like “I don’t want to get any more dark spots and want to keep preventing them.” It’s 4,950 yen for 36 mL. In my case, one bottle lasted about 1.5 months, so it came to around 3,300 yen per month. The relatively affordable price for a brightening serum was another reason I was able to keep using it for so long. I tried other products here and there, but this was ultimately a favorite that I kept using for about 5 years. I recommend it for preventive care if you don’t have many dark spots yet, or for anyone who wants to keep up with brightening care while prioritizing value for money! I wanted to take my skincare more seriously, so I doubled my budget and now use a different brightening serum.

  The Alpha-Arbutin 2 Discoloration Care Serum

  I tried it because it seemed like it might help with melasma and skin redness, but after one bottle, I couldn't really tell if it had any effect. In a good way, it barely feels like anything on the skin, so I think it works fine slotted into a routine like toner → this → other serums. It does feel a little sticky, but not enough to really bother me. It didn't irritate my skin, so it's not that it doesn't agree with me, but I guess I won't know unless I keep using it a little longer... I'd seen a lot of promos that made it seem like it would work quickly, so it was a bit of a letdown. There are other products I'm interested in too, so I'm not considering repurchasing for now.

  TXA Niacinamide 15% Serum

  I used this to brighten my skin tone and help with dark spots and dullness. Honestly, I didn't really notice much of a visible effect. The texture is light and not too sticky, but sometimes it did feel a little tacky. It doesn't feel all that moisturizing. Rather than giving dramatic results, I think it's the kind of product you use long-term and hope to see gradual changes with.

  HAKU

  Melanofocus IV

  I bought this because I wanted to stay consistent with my brightening care. My skin is thin and prone to redness, so I use it on days when my skin is doing well and take a break on days when it feels sensitive. I started my first bottle on March 12 and finished it on August 31. I didn't use it every morning and night, so in my case, it lasted about five and a half months. The texture is fresh and glides smoothly over the skin. It doesn't feel very sticky after it absorbs, so it's also easy to use before makeup in the morning. I sometimes use it together with POLA White Shot, and I also like that it doesn't feel too heavy. The full-size bottle costs 11,000 yen, so honestly, I thought it was expensive when I bought it. But with the way I use it, one bottle lasted about five and a half months, so it actually works out to around 2,000 yen a month. It was easier to keep using than I expected. I'm also happy that refills are available. Instead of transferring the contents, you replace the entire inner container, so it was easy. After I finished it, the pouch inside had shriveled down really small, and I like being able to see that I really used every last bit! I'm now on my second bottle and have been repurchasing the refill. When I bought mine, there was a campaign where you could receive a special 20 g size if you purchased two eligible HAKU products and applied using the product barcodes. I was already planning to keep using it, so I bought two at once and applied, and it arrived at my home later as promised. The regular size is 45 g, so I was happy that 20 g was a generous amount that I could get plenty of use out of! It's not cheap, but it feels good to use and is easy to work into my routine at my own pace while keeping an eye on how my skin is doing, so for now, it's a brightening serum I want to continue using.

  White Shot SXS N

  After giving birth, I couldn't get any cosmetic treatments because I'm breastfeeding, and the medications I can use are limited, so I bought this as a last resort. I'm concerned about my acne scars and apply a thick layer every night, but even after using it for about three months now, they still haven't faded much. Also, the cream is very rich, and when I apply it with the pad of my finger, quite a lot of it sticks to my finger too, which feels like such a waste... I still haven't finished the first tube, but since I haven't seen any results in the short term, I'm starting to feel like maybe I'd be better off spending this much money on cosmetic treatments?

  White Shot SXS N

  I bought this because I was concerned about the dark spots on my cheeks. I've now finished two tubes and started my third! It's a pretty thick cream, and the texture makes it easy to target specific dark spots rather than spreading it all over your face. I use it as a spot treatment on the dark spots on both cheeks, morning and night. I use HAKU brightening serum all over my face, so I'm currently using HAKU + White Shot together. I use HAKU all over and White Shot only on the dark spots I'm especially concerned about. I started using it on 1/10 and finished my second tube on 8/27. At this rate, one tube lasts around 100 days. It's pricey at $13,200, but in my case that works out to around $4,000 a month, so it lasted longer than I expected. What made me happiest after continuing to use it was that when I compared photos, the small dark spots I'd been concerned about looked lighter than before! Personally, I really feel like it's working. The larger dark spots, on the other hand, are still stubborn...! And at the end, I wondered, "Could there still be some left inside?" so I cut open the container, and quite a lot came out😂 Even when I thought I'd used it all up, there was still some left inside, so I recommend cutting it open at the end. It's expensive, but the thick cream is easy to apply exactly where you want it, and it lasts a really long time if you use it as a spot treatment. I could also see a difference when comparing photos, so I'll keep using it. I'm planning to buy a fourth tube too.

  The Alpha-Arbutin 2 Discoloration Care Serum

  I tried using this because I wanted my skin to look more radiant. The serum is so runny that it drips down when you put it on your skin, but as you work it in, it leaves a slightly tacky finish. I haven't noticed a definite improvement in radiance, but I like how it feels, and my skin somehow seems to be in better condition the next day, so I keep repurchasing it.

  TXA Niacinamide 15% Serum

  It's a lightweight serum, and I noticed a clear brightening effect. It's my favorite tranexamic acid serum, and once I start using it, I feel like my dullness disappears. I apply it to my neck too, so it's really useful.

  Kiehl's

  Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution

  A serum that’s been selling well for ages! The product that made me fall in love with Kiehl's ♡ ･As I keep using it, I get the feeling that it leads to a smoother-looking complexion with a clear, radiant glow✨ ･The scent is also so soothing and lovely The scent of natural lavender oil ･The balance between hydration and freshness is just perfect, making it easy to use in any season✨ I love the silky, slightly runny texture ･I feel like the redness from my acne scars has become less noticeable※This is just my personal impression ･I used it up once and took a break for a while, but during that time there was a period when my skin just didn’t feel quite settled, and it made me realize again that this serum really is a good match for me✨
