Skin lightening serum is a type of skincare product that is designed to help lighten and brighten the skin by reducing the appearance of dark spots, age spots, uneven skin tone, and hyperpigmentation. It's typically formulated with ingredients that can help to inhibit the production of melanin, the pigment that gives color to the skin, hair, and eyes.

Skin lightening serums are typically formulated with ingredients such as:

• Hydroquinone: a skin lightening agent that is known to inhibit the production of melanin
• Kojic acid: a natural ingredient that is derived from mushrooms, known to inhibit the production of melanin
• Vitamin C: an antioxidant that can help to brighten the skin and reduce the appearance of dark spots
• Glycolic acid: an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that can help to exfoliate the skin and improve its texture
• Arbutin: a natural skin lightening agent

It's important to note that while skin lightening serums can be effective in reducing the appearance of dark spots, age spots, uneven skin tone, and hyperpigmentation, it's not recommended for everyone. They should be used with caution, particularly for those with sensitive skin, as some of the ingredients may cause irritation or allergic reactions. It's also important to avoid prolonged sun exposure and use sunscreen as a part of daily routine to prevent further darkening of the skin. It's best to consult with a dermatologist before starting to use any skin lightening products.
