Was wondering if you could do an episode on Thiamidol? It is patented ingredient by Beiersdorf, included in their Eucerin and Nivea lines for hyperpigmentation. They make strong claims that Thiamidol is currently the most effective inhibitor of human tyrosinase, 500 times stronger than Kojic Acid as well as stronger than Hydroquionine. They also claim they have isolated the human enzymes to test on, unlike most companies that test on mushrooms. The product has been gaining popularity rapidly on melasmaskincare subreddit and it seems the hype seems warranted with impressive results. It seems to blow pretty much all commonly suggested pigmentation ingredients like Kojic Acid, Tranxemic, Azelaic etc. out of water. It is Europe only product and not available in US right now.

The Ordinary has a resveratrol serum for folks who don't want to spend too much. Or even the Medik8 Oxy-R peptides serum which is still less expensive than the Skinceuticals. I've seen wild turkeys twice. A few years ago driving down a quiet street in San Jose, CA a flock taking their time to cross the road. More recently around the Oakland hills though this time they weren't in the street.
