Anua Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad 210ml

Dark spots and uneven skin tone are some of the trickiest concerns to tackle, which is exactly why the Anua Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad has become such a cult favorite. Each pad is soaked in a potent yet gentle essence featuring 5% Niacinamide and Tranexamic Acid (TXA) — two of the most clinically respected ingredients for fading hyperpigmentation and brightening dull skin. The dual-textured design gives you a smooth side for soothing toning and an embossed side for gentle exfoliation, making this a true multitasker.

What we love about the Anua Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad is how balanced the formula feels. Alongside the brightening duo, it includes PHA for mild resurfacing and Centella Asiatica to keep skin calm and comfortable. The Anua Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad suits most skin types, especially those with dullness, post-acne marks, or stubborn melasma. Pair it with a  Vitamin C Serum for amplified results.

Key Ingredients

Here’s what powers the Anua Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad:

Niacinamide 5% (Vitamin B3) A clinically backed brightening hero that visibly fades dark spots, evens skin tone, and refines pores. At 5%, it delivers strong results while staying gentle enough for daily use, and it also strengthens the skin barrier over time.

Tranexamic Acid (TXA) One of the most effective ingredients for tackling melasma and stubborn pigmentation. It works at the source by interrupting the pathway that triggers excess melanin, helping to fade discoloration that other ingredients struggle with.

PHA (Polyhydroxy Acid) A mild exfoliant that gently sweeps away dead skin cells without the sting of stronger acids. It refines texture, unclogs pores, and adds a hydrating boost — ideal for sensitive skin types.

Centella Asiatica Extract A soothing botanical that calms redness and irritation, balancing out the active ingredients so skin stays comfortable.

Panthenol (Vitamin B5) Locks in moisture and supports the skin’s natural barrier, leaving skin soft and plump after every swipe.

Allantoin Soothes and helps speed up surface skin recovery, reducing the look of irritation or post-acne redness.

Hyaluronic Acid Pulls moisture into the skin for that plump, dewy finish even after exfoliation.
