💫 The more you know! 🌈

This was a good reminder for me, and hopefully some of you won't make the same mistake I did. Would you be interested in a dedicated hyperpigmentation video? Let me know what products you've tried or what pigmentation predicaments you've experienced and I'll see about making us a video!

Here's the study I was referring to
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38560...

I will do a proper QuickTake Review down the road, using this as a booster to my maintenance hyperpigmentation routine and see where it gets me.
