Wonderfully informative video as always! I’ve enjoyed a couple PCA skincare products tho it was years ago And this is great timing as this is a video/product recs I feel great about recommending to my niece who could also benefit from adding kojic acid to her skincare regimen-definitely sounds like its a better option for her after hearing this info than hydroquinone. And your videos on the importance of sunscreen have been such a blessing not only to my knowledge for protecting my skin but has allowed me to pass on this important info to my niece to help her get an earlier start on protecting her own much younger skin.

I picked up the PCA Pigment Bar months ago when you first reviewed it. I was skeptical of the added fragrance they used in it but I have had no issues at all from the product. It is in fact, one of my favourite products to use and really helped to lighten the sun damage I had on the side of my neck. I also purchased the gel a while later and love that too, it's expensive but I think I will continue to purchase it. It helps heal the breakouts faster and helps the redness go away quicker. Thank you for covering this ingredient, enjoyed the video very much :).

I have been using the PCA Pigment Bar, at your recommendation, and I LOVE it. I have hyperpigmentation that I just thought was extreme freckles, but have discovered that it is actually melasma that appeared during pregnancy and 3.5 years later it has not let up. The PCA bar has helped along with a few other products you have recommended. I used to think that sunscreen did not agree with my skin, but it was that US sunscreens don't agree with my skin. I have been loving Alturist, and Japanese Biore and Nivea sunscreens to help the melasma patches from darkening. Thank you for putting so much care into your videos helping to educate and protect out skin.

So in the morning after cleansing and putting the pigment gel do I have to put a moisterizer or can I just use my sunscreen on that. I have normal skin. And in the evening after cleansing and putting the pigment gel on can I use retinol on top of the pigment. Appreciate a response thank you God bless.

I noticed that the very first ingredient, which means there's a very high percentage of it, in the first product you recommended was Alcohol. Can you comment on why that should or should not be a concern going in?

Love this topic. I have a prescription compound formula consisting of Kojic acid, Retin/A and HQ I love it ! I have another with ONLY Kojic acid and Retin/A works for me

Carol Chadwick How do you get that compound formula? And how expensive is it? I’ve gotten the individual tubes for about $100 plus. Never a “cocktail” mix though.

What can you say about using Kojic Acid and Tranexamic Acid at the same time?

I got the PCA gel. It automatically faded my dark spots due to acne, but it gives me pruritus :( I only put a little bit only in the spots not every day (and at night) and my skin reacts. Even after cleaning it.
