How To Use

For faster brightening results use the takesumi bright double dose method:

STEP 1: the kojic acid bar:
Moisten the bar and apply the lather to affected areas with a soft and gentle cloth or silicone exfoliating brush (fingers can be used if exfoliating has occurred more than twice a week). Massage for 30 seconds to allow the actives to penetrate the area before rinsing off.

STEP 2: the niacinamide brightening deodorant:
Follow with a generous application of deodorant to clean, dry underarms daily.

This bar may also be used on dark spot pigmentation on arms, elbows, knees, inner thighs and buttocks for effective management of pigmentation in these regions. 

Do not use in the vaginal region or to shave underarms. Do not use after shaving. Always shave in the evening and allow your skin to calm before using this product.

Note: The longer the pigmentation has been present the longer it will take to see significant improvement. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is a result of irritation. Brightening treatments will be unsuccessful until underlying cause of inflammation has been addressed.

For external use only. Do not use in vaginal area. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue use if irritation develops or persists. Do not use on broken skin.

These products are downright miraculous

My 33 year old handicapped daughter has had "butt acne," or specifically, bad pustular break-outs, on her upper thighs and buttocks for at least ten years. I thought this was caused because she doesn't walk well and must sit for long periods of time. She has also had acne scattered across her back. ...

Haven't seen any major difference?

Bought this product about a month or so ago, I havent seen much difference to be honest. This item may take some time to see the results & probably requires every day use. I have not been using this every day, I would say I've used about 3x a week. Will continue to use to see if better results appea...

I had pigmentation issues on my face following a messed up laser treatment, used the brightening bar constantly for a month and I am seeing a big difference. The patches i used yo have on my face are fading (not completely gone but not as dark as they used to be). I am definitely ordering more and gifting this to my sisters too.

My 33 year old handicapped daughter has had "butt acne," or specifically, bad pustular break-outs, on her upper thighs and buttocks for at least ten years. I thought this was caused because she doesn't walk well and must sit for long periods of time. She has also had acne scattered across her back. Otherwise, she has always, even as a teenager, had a beautiful complexion requiring very little care. We've tried many soaps and cremes touted on social media with limited success. We started using this bar just several weeks ago. Although she still has hyper-pigmented splotches on the backs of her thighs, she has almost completely bump-free skin on her butt, thighs and back. We also use the underarm bar (also on feet) in conjunction with ACV. These products are downright miraculous. Originally reviewed on kaianaturals.com on 03/02/2024
