Deconstruct Pigmentation Control Serum is a uniquely formulated power combination of 3% Tranexamic and 2% Glycolic acid that functions well towards tackling pigmentation, melasma, hyperpigmentation, post inflammatory hyperpigmentation(PIH), PIE(Erythema) and acne scars.

    I am surprised

    Usually i don’t finish skincare products because most of them irritate and i end up throwing.
    But this serum is really good. I finish one bottle and it helped in calming acne and reducing pih.
    Doesn’t provide any glow/plumpness or hydration.
    I think its very good treatment product. I will repurchase (i have oily combo sensitive skin)

    I like deconstruct's serums, but i felt this one is peeling my skin. I have only recently started using it so can't say if it's just beginning's side effects or not. Will update after a month'a use.
