- Q
I have redness around my cheeks and all over my face does this serum help get rid of redness?
- Asked by Cberg
- Official Answer By Anua - Brand EngageThank you for reaching out! Our Niacinamide 10 TXA 4 Serum is formulated to help brighten the skin and improve the appearance of uneven tone, and it may support overall skin clarity. However, if your redness is due to sensitivity or inflammation, we would recommend using a more soothing product first - such as our Azelaic Acid 10 Hyaluron Redness Soothing Serum, which is specially designed to calm redness and support a healthy skin barrier. Please note that this recommendation is intended for redness caused by dryness and not associated with any medical condition. If you're unsure about the cause of your redness, we suggest doing a patch test first and starting with gentle products before gradually introducing stronger actives like niacinamide at higher concentrations.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can I use this at the same time as hydroquinone?
- Asked by Lu
- Official Answer By Anua - Brand EngageThank you for your inquiry. While hydroquinone is a potent skin-lightening agent used in targeted treatments, it can also increase skin sensitivity. Using it alongside our Anua NIACINAMIDE 10% + TXA 4% SERUM containing niacinamide may be tolerated by some users, as niacinamide is generally soothing and supportive of the skin barrier. However, since both ingredients affect pigmentation, we highly recommend consulting with a dermatologist or medical professional before combining them - especially if you’re using a hydroquinone-based product prescribed for a specific condition. Also, please ensure that proper sun protection is used during the day, as hydroquinone can make your skin more susceptible to UV damage.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can this be used after exfoliating?
- Asked by Nat
- Official Answer By Anua - Brand EngageThank you for your question! The ANUA Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Serum can generally be used after exfoliating, as both niacinamide and tranexamic acid are known to be gentle and supportive of the skin barrier. This combination can help soothe and brighten the skin following exfoliation. However, since exfoliation may increase skin sensitivity temporarily, it’s important to ensure your skin tolerates this layering well. We recommend using a hydrating toner or essence first, then applying the serum, and always following up with a moisturizer and sunscreen if used during the day. A patch test is also advised when introducing new products into your routine. If you have any other questions, feel free to let us know!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can this be used for dark spotsaround the eyes?
- Asked by Marie
- Official Answer By Anua - Brand EngageThank you for your question! This serum is designed to target hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone. While it may help reduce dark spots, we do not recommend using it around the delicate eye area, as it contains active ingredients that may cause irritation. Please use an eye cream specifically formulated for that area instead. Please let us know if you have any other questions — we’re happy to assist!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Do you put this on before or after a toner?
- Asked by Amanda
- Official Answer By Anua - Brand EngageThe ANUA Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Serum should be applied after toner and before moisturizer in your skincare routine. Using it after toner allows the serum to absorb more effectively and deliver its benefits to your skin. Here’s a simple order for reference: 1. Cleanser 2. Toner 3. Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Serum 4. Moisturizer 5. Sunscreen (AM routine only) We hope this helps you get the best results from your routine. If you have any more questions, feel free to reach out!Was this answer helpful to you

My New Skincare Obsession
I've tried my fair share of serums, but this one? It's a total game-changer. If you're on the hunt for tighter, brighter skin, keep reading because this serum is everything. First Impressions Let's talk about the packaging. Simple, clean, and chic. The dropper is super easy to use, and you don't ne...

Not for me
The NIACINAMIDE 10%+TXA 4% Serum by Anua wasn't for me. Some background, I'm a 42 year old Master Esthetician that loves super hydrating (bordering on indulgent) skincare. My combo skin leans a bit dry these days, especially during the winter. My experience using this serum was brief (a week) bu...

It was meh
Honestly, was not the biggest fan of this product. It was super sticky and I felt like it never absorbed. Initially, it caused a little bit of surface acne, but that went away after a couple of days. I give it three stars because it didn't really cause any damage or made my skin irritated, but I just didn't like the fact that my face felt sticky all day. The Ordinary line works better for me.
Smoother skin!!
Noticed clean smoother feeling skin
Glowy skin
My face looks so glowy after using this product. I havent been using routinely so I can't say for certain that I noticed a outstanding difference but I love the glowy effect after I apply this product on.
Too strong
This product caused me to breakout.
Sticky and ineffective
I wanted to love this product after reading all the postive reviews, but it did nothing for my skin. It was tacky and sticky and made my face shine with a plasticy look. I'm not even finishing the bottle which is rare.
