Lycon Pinkini Lightening Serum 30ml

Anti-pigment serum with vitamin C for bikini and sensitive areas

Dark discolorations in the bikini area, underarms, or on the backs of the hands almost always arise from the same cause: a combination of friction, repeated hair removal, and exposure to factors that overactivate pigment cells. These are the spots literally trapped in daily routines — under tight clothing, in deodorant areas, after shaving. And that is exactly why they feel like a personal frustration point for many women, rarely taken seriously in standard products.

The Pinkini Lightening Serum is formulated to target these areas specifically. A lightweight, fast-absorbing gel-serum with four active ingredients that gradually even out skin tone, lighten pigmented spots, and help prevent new pigmentation. Hydroquinone-free and arbutin-free — two common but controversial bleaching agents deliberately omitted from this formula in favor of gentler, EU-compliant alternatives that deliver results with patience.

Advantages

• Gradually evens out skin tone on pigmented areas such as the bikini line, underarms, and hands
• Helps prevent new pigmentation formation with regular use
• Lightweight gel-serum absorbs quickly without a sticky film or stains on clothing or underwear
• Multitasker: also usable as an anti-aging facial serum for fine lines and dull skin
• Hydroquinone-free and arbutin-free — suitable for those who consciously choose milder alternatives
• Vegan, cruelty-free, and gluten-free — Australian made

Active ingredients

Vitamin C Complex (Ascorbyl Glucoside): The stable, time-release form of vitamin C that gradually provides the skin with active antioxidants. Ascorbyl Glucoside inhibits melanin production in the skin, gradually fading existing pigmentation spots and helping to prevent new ones from forming. Additionally, it stimulates collagen production, making this ingredient valuable for facial application as well.

Hyaluronic Acid: A naturally occurring substance in the skin that binds water and hydrates the skin. A serum that targets pigmentation without hydration risks leaving the skin feeling dry or tight — hyaluronic acid compensates for this. It also provides an immediate, visible smoothing of skin texture.

Sodium Lactate: A mild humectant that maintains skin moisture and contributes to a more even skin tone. With regular use, it supports the action of vitamin C without causing irritation — an important difference from stronger AHAs that are not always suitable for delicate areas.

Yeast Beta-Glucan: A skin-soothing and revitalizing ingredient derived from yeast. It supports the skin’s natural repair ability, soothes reactive areas, and strengthens the barrier function. In a serum applied twice daily, this ingredient provides essential calming effects that enable long-term use.

How to use

1. Cleanse the skin of the area to be treated, preferably with Pinkini Intimate Wash for the bikini area or a mild cleanser for the face
2. Pat the skin thoroughly dry — the serum works best on clean, completely dry skin
3. Pump 1 to 2 doses onto your fingertips, depending on the size of the area you are treating
4. Gently spread the serum over the pigmented spot and lightly massage until fully absorbed
5. Wait a few minutes to allow the serum to absorb before putting on clothes or applying a moisturizer
6. Use twice daily — in the morning and evening — for optimal results, and always apply sun protection during the day on exposed areas such as the face, neck, or hands

• Use on elbows, knees, and other areas prone to darkening

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to see results on pigmentation spots?

Most users notice a visibly lighter appearance of the treated area after four to eight weeks of consistent daily use. For deeper or longer-standing pigmentation, it can take twelve weeks to several months for the full result to appear. Patience is essential — this is a gradual process without a quick fix.

Is this serum safe for daily use on the face?

Yes, the formula is suitable for application on the face, neck, and décolleté and also has an additional anti-aging effect due to the collagen-stimulating action of vitamin C. Combine with a day and night cream of your choice and always use an SPF during the day to protect the results from UV damage.

Can I use this serum during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

There are no specific contraindications for use on the bikini area, underarms, and hands during pregnancy, but we advise consulting a midwife or general practitioner before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. The manufacturer advises against use on the breasts during breastfeeding. Be cautious with daily use on large areas and stop if in doubt.

Does this serum contain hydroquinone or arbutin?

No. The formula is deliberately free of hydroquinone and arbutin. Hydroquinone is completely banned in European cosmetics, and arbutin is subject to stricter regulation. Lycon opts for milder, EU-compliant alternatives such as vitamin C and sodium lactate that work gradually and safely without stressing the skin barrier.

Does this product fit in my hand luggage during a flight?

Yes. With 30 ml, the bottle remains well within the European limit of 100 ml per container for liquids and gels in hand luggage. Place it in your transparent toiletry bag along with other care products.
