Ingredient

Cruelty-free Tranexamic Acid, from brands that actually pass.

A tone-tagged ingredient from brands that meet all three rules \u2014 not a bleach.

What it is

Tranexamic acid is used in leave-on skincare for the look of dark spots. It is not hydroquinone, and it is not a ranking of brighteners.

This page is the catalog’s Tranexamic Acid tag, with the standard already applied. It is not every brightener.

Who appears here

Every product on this page is from a brand that passes the Bunny Index Standard: no animal testing at any stage, not sold where testing is required, not owned by a parent that tests.

If a brand fails that bar, it does not make this page — even if the product is famous, even if the INCI list matches, even if the box has a bunny on it.

The three rules: The Standard.

Tranexamic Acid is the filter. The standard is the company. We list both, or we list nothing.
