FAQs:
Q. Does Lightning use hydroquinone?
A: No.
CosMedix does not use hydroquinone due to its inflammatory nature
and potential for further skin damage.
Q. How does Lightning work?
A:
Lightning’s natural skin brightening ingredients work to inhibit
the tyrosinase enzyme responsible for discoloration and minimize
the unwanted stimulation of melanin. Once the source of the
discoloration is controlled, exfoliation is then often recommended
to draw pigmented areas out.
