Active Ingredients

The science inside Brightening Boost Cream.

Click any ingredient to see exactly how it works and why Dr. Truesdale chose it.

Kojic Acid
AM + PM · Melanin inhibitor
+
Most effective OTC melanin-production inhibitor
Blocks tyrosinase — the enzyme responsible for melanin synthesis. Works at the source of hyperpigmentation, preventing new dark spots while gradually fading existing ones. Particularly effective for PIH in melanin-rich skin.
Dark spot reductionMelanin inhibitionPIH treatmentTone evenness
Oligopeptide-68
AM + PM · Multi-pathway brightening
+
Peptide targeting hyperpigmentation through three simultaneous pathways
Unlike single-mechanism brighteners, Oligopeptide-68 inhibits melanin synthesis, reduces melanin transfer, AND promotes melanin degradation. Outperforms kojic acid alone without triggering sensitivity.
Multi-pathway brighteningPIH-safePeptide technology
Niacinamide 5%
AM + PM · Tone equalizer
+
Highest evidence-backed concentration for tone-evening
At 5% — higher than the Masterpiece collection — niacinamide specifically targets the melanin transfer pathway. Works synergistically with every other brightening active.

How To Use

Your routine

☀ Morning

Apply after cleansing, before SPF. Use every morning. Brightening actives work best with consistent daily application and strict SPF use — UV exposure reverses brightening progress.

🌙 Evening

Apply as your final moisturizing step in the evening. Some customers combine with the Masterpiece Collection (Brightening in AM, Masterpiece AM/PM) for comprehensive results.

Quick answers
Yes — specifically designed for it. Every formula is tested across all skin tones in Dr. Truesdale's Beverly Hills practice.
If you're not satisfied for any reason within 30 days, we'll refund every dollar — no forms, no hoops.
Most users report visible brightening at 4–6 weeks of consistent daily use paired with strict morning SPF. Deeper PIH and post-acne marks can take 8–12 weeks to fully fade.
