🌿 Key Ingredients
5% Niacinamide
A versatile brightening and skin-conditioning ingredient that helps improve the appearance of uneven tone, dullness, pores and post-blemish marks.
3% Tranexamic Acid (TXA)
A targeted brightening ingredient that helps improve the appearance of dark spots and uneven pigmentation, making it a key component of this tone-correcting formula.
🔬 Hydrolyzed Sponge / Spicules
The formula contains hydrolyzed sponge, providing the distinctive spicule technology. These tiny structures create a noticeable tingling sensation and are intended to support delivery of the serum's active ingredients.

Additional brightening ingredients that complement Niacinamide and TXA for a more radiant, even-looking complexion.
Gluconolactone + Betaine Salicylate

- Dark spots
- Post-acne marks
- Visible pores

The manufacturer lists the product for all skin types, but because this is an active spicule formula, sensitive or reactive skin should introduce it cautiously.
🇧🇩 Why It's Great for Skin in Bangladesh
Bangladesh's strong sun exposure, hot weather, humidity and outdoor pollution can contribute to dullness, tanning and the appearance of uneven pigmentation.
APRILSKIN TXA Niacinamide Toning Shot 99 is particularly suited to a brightening-focused routine because it combines Niacinamide + TXA with exfoliating and skin-texture ingredients in one concentrated treatment.
For the best brightening routine, pair it with daily SPF50+ sunscreen. Consistent sun protection is essential when targeting dark spots and uneven tone.
🧴 How to Use
- Cleanse your face thoroughly.
- Pat the skin completely dry.
- Apply an appropriate amount of the serum directly to the face, avoiding the eye and lip areas.
- Gently massage/rub until absorbed, following the product's directions.
- Once absorbed, apply a hydrating serum, essence or moisturizer.
- Use at night as the first step of your skincare routine.
⚠️ Important Usage Tips
- A tingling or stimulating sensation can occur because of the spicule formula.
- Do not apply to damaged or wounded skin.
- If you have sensitive skin, start gradually rather than immediately using it every night.
- Avoid combining it initially with multiple strong exfoliating acids or retinoids.
- Wear sunscreen every morning.
- If persistent redness, burning, swelling or itching occurs, discontinue use.
It works best if you use it with a niacinamide. Depending on your skin tolerance you should choose the percentage. It helps with penetration of other products
