- Does this kit contain hydroquinone?
- No. ZO's brightening products in this program rely on non-hydroquinone brightening actives, so they can be used longer term than hydroquinone creams.
- How long until I see brightening?
- Most users notice smoother texture within a couple of weeks, but visible fading of dark spots usually takes six to twelve weeks of consistent use.
- Can I use it if I have sensitive skin?
- It is aimed at normal skin and includes a retinol, so sensitive or reactive skin may sting or peel. Introduce the retinol slowly and use the moisturizer with SPF daily.
- Do I need sunscreen with this kit?
- Yes. Brightening actives and retinol make skin more sun-sensitive, and unprotected sun exposure undoes the fading. The included moisturizer has SPF, but reapply through the day.
- What is in the box?
- Five pieces: a facial cleanser, an exfoliating polish, a brightening serum, a retinol treatment and a daily moisturizer with SPF, in pump, tube and jar formats.
- Is it worth it over a single brightening serum?
- The kit gives you cleansing, exfoliation, treatment and sun protection working together, which is more complete than one serum. If you already have a routine you like, a single brightening serum is simpler and gentler.
- Where is the Zo Skin Health Skin Brightening Program Kit cheapest?
- At Rue La La, for $189.99, as of our latest check.
