TXA

TRANEXAMIC ACID TECHNOLOGY

Science-backed fading.

Visible results.

Tranexamic acid is a science-backed brightening ingredient that targets the root cause of melasma, dark spots, and uneven pigmentation — inhibiting the signalling pathways that trigger excess melanin production. Unlike harsh bleaching agents, it works without irritating the skin barrier, making it safe for long-term daily use. Combined with Vitamin C, Ferulic Acid, and an AHA exfoliation complex, True Tone delivers a comprehensive approach to brighter, more even, and radiant skin.

0% Brighter, more radiant skin

PATHWAY 01

Melanin Inhibition

Tranexamic Acid — The Brightening Hero

TXA → Blocks Melanin Signals → Even Tone

Tranexamic acid blocks the UV-induced signalling between keratinocytes and melanocytes — the root cause of melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. The result is a gradual, controlled fade of dark spots without irritating or stripping the skin barrier.

02
PATHWAY 02

Radiance & Renewal

Vitamin C + Ferulic Acid + AHA Complex

AHAs → Resurface → Vitamin C → Brighten

AHAs gently exfoliate away dull, pigmented surface cells to reveal fresher skin underneath. Vitamin C then brightens and evens tone at a cellular level, while Ferulic Acid stabilises and amplifies its effect — delivering a compounding brightening benefit with every application.

Two pathways. One serum. Visibly brighter, more even skin.

KEY INGREDIENTS

What's in every drop.

Science-backed brighteners. No harsh bleaching agents.

Hero Brightener
Tranexamic Acid

A science-backed brightening ingredient that inhibits the UV-triggered signalling pathway responsible for excess melanin production — the root cause of melasma, dark spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Effective without the irritation or risks associated with bleaching agents.

Radiance Booster
Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid)

Inhibits melanin synthesis at the tyrosinase enzyme level, brightening existing pigmentation and preventing new dark spots from forming. Also a potent antioxidant that protects skin from free radical damage and supports collagen production.

Gentle Resurfacing
AHA Complex

A blend of alpha hydroxy acids that gently dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells, accelerating surface renewal and fading post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — priming skin to absorb brightening actives more effectively.

Supporting Actives

🌿
Ferulic Acid

Stabilises and amplifies the effectiveness of Vitamin C, while also defending against free radicals and reducing melanin activity.

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)

Powerful antioxidant that energises skin cells, supports resilience, and helps protect against environmental triggers of pigmentation.

💧
Hyaluronic Acid

Draws moisture into skin and maintains hydration balance — keeping skin comfortable and plump while actives work.

Beta-Glucan

Activates skin immunity, reduces inflammation and amplifies PDRN receptor uptake.

🔋
Adenosine

Naturally occurring anti-wrinkle compound that energises skin cells and works with Matrixyl.

Licorice Root Extract

Inhibits tyrosinase to reduce hyperpigmentation and post-inflammatory redness.

🍃
Green Tea Extract

High-potency antioxidant. Neutralises free radical damage and protects active ingredients.

⚗️
Arginine

Amino acid that optimises pH for maximum active stability and conditions the moisture barrier.

YOUR BRIGHTENING RITUAL

How to Use.

01
STEP 01 · CLEANSE
🧴

Cleanse

Cleanse your face with the Helloskin Cleanser and pat dry. Starting with clean skin maximises absorption of the brightening actives.

02
STEP 02 · APPLY

Apply True Tone

Apply a pea-sized amount to your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Gently massage in upward motions until fully absorbed. Use once daily — preferably in the evening.

03
STEP 03 · MOISTURISE
🛡️

Moisturise + SPF

Follow with the Helloskin Face Moisturiser. In the morning, always apply SPF 30+ — essential when using AHAs and brightening actives to protect your skin and results.

EXPECTED RESULTS

Day 3–5

Skin feels brighter and more refreshed. Early glow improvement as AHAs begin resurfacing dull surface cells.

Week 2–3

Visible improvement in overall tone. Early fading of lighter dark spots and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Week 4–6

Significant reduction in melasma and dark spots. Skin tone noticeably more even, radiant, and clear with consistent daily use.

💡 Pro Tips

Use in the evening — AHAs and Vitamin C work best overnight

Always apply SPF 30+ in the morning when using this serum

If new to AHAs, start with every other night and build to daily use

Patch test before first use, especially if you have sensitive skin

“I've been fighting melasma for what feels like a lifetime. I've been on the True Tone Serum for 3 weeks and the results are already showing. I can't wait to see where I am at 8 weeks. Using it with the cleanser and moisturiser.”

“I became self-conscious when the melasma spots appeared. A simple 3-step routine and in a week I started noticing the colour changing. By 4 weeks it had come down to barely noticeable. Now I have to look closely to even spot it. Absolutely life-changing.”

“I had heavy acne scarring and had basically given up after trying so many products. This is the only one that's worked. I didn't know what tranexamic acid was before this — now I tell everyone about it.”
