There’s little to no posts on here about hexylresorcinol so i was wondering if anyone has had experience with this agent? Studies indicated “that the utilization of a 1% hexylresorcinol lotion yields skin-lightening outcomes that are comparable to those obtained with a 2% hydroquinone lotion.” [ResearchGate]
Not only this, hexylresorcinol does not cause sun sensitivity or any adverse harsh sides that hydroquinone may. Could this be superior to HQ?
