Glow Starts Here
Size: 1oz
Give your glow a jumpstart. This hydroquinone-free formula helps fade dark spots, reduce inflammation, and brighten skin tone. Ideal for melanin-rich skin or anyone dealing with hyperpigmentation or dullness, this serum combines the exfoliating power of Glycolic Acid with the calming strength of Witch Hazel and MSM.
Why You’ll See Multiple Ingredient Lists
To ensure the highest quality, stability, and regulatory compliance, the Brighten & Glow Serum has undergone minor refinements, typically under 2%, over the years, as part of routine modernization and improved ingredient sourcing.
Across all versions, the serum’s core identity remains consistent: a brightening, resurfacing AHA-based formula featuring glycolic acid, willow bark, MSM, licorice, reishi, ginseng, gotu kola, and a supportive blend of antioxidant-rich botanicals.
The January 2025 update reflects a cleaner, more refined evolution of the original serum, with all key actives and performance benefits fully preserved.
Because our products have a two-year shelf life, you may receive a prior version depending on production timing. For complete transparency, we have included:

I emailed about this on Monday (3 days ago) and no one has responded to me about why this once thick serum is cloudy and liquid-like.

The product I received was basically a bottle of water. I’ve bought this product in the past to great satisfaction but I’m not sure what happened with this batch. I thought about returning it but I had already opened it and I didn’t think it would be accepted. In any case, more care should be taken in ensuring the consistency and quality of the products.

I have PCSO and it had my chin area really dark from ingrown hair and from me tweezing every day. Since I have been using the complete line of Yelle for oily skin with addition to the scrub daily I now can go without makeup when running a quick errand. Before I never left the house without makeup. I get compliments on my skin stating your skin is so smooth and even toned. Thank you Yelle “Yandy”

I will definitely purchase this again I have noticed with time my dark spots are clearing up gradually. I’m hoping after use of my second bottle I will no longer have acne scars and even tone.
Candy L. 5/5 Verified
Great product unlike the other popular cosmetic companies this product really does work. Yelle has been one of the most trustworthy products. I have started using this product for myself and also my teenage son. It really helps teens who suffer from acne and adults who suffered from hyperpigmentation. This product is worth every dollar.
