What it targets
Vivier lists two benefits: it targets stubborn hyperpigmentation and dark spots, and helps prevent new discoloration from forming. The brand positions it for all skin types, especially moderate to intensely hyperpigmented skin.
Key ingredients
Vivier lists vitamin C and hydroquinone, specified in the product description as 10% L-ascorbic acid USP plus 2% hydroquinone USP. Combining the two is the brand’s approach to correcting existing pigment while working against new discoloration.
Who it is for
Moderate to intense hyperpigmentation, per Vivier. This is the strongest pigment product in the range in serum form, and like any hydroquinone product it deserves a plan and a review date rather than open-ended use.
How to use it
One to two drops in the palm, applied as a thin layer to face, neck, chest and the backs of the hands, once or twice daily on clean dry skin. Vivier states it is important to limit sun exposure and always wear a sunscreen rated SPF 30 or higher while using it.
How it fits with your treatments at Bar Beauty
Pigment is the concern where home care and in-clinic treatment most need to be coordinated, and where sun protection decides the outcome. We plan the whole thing together rather than selling a serum in isolation.

Frequently asked questions
What is in the Advanced Skin Lightening Serum?
Vivier lists 10% vitamin C as L-ascorbic acid USP together with 2% hydroquinone USP.
How is it different from Corrector 2?
Both carry 2% hydroquinone USP. Corrector 2 is a cream applied to affected areas; this is a serum applied more broadly to face, neck, chest and hands, and it adds 10% L-ascorbic acid USP.
How many drops do I use?
Vivier directs one to two drops, applied as a thin layer, once or twice daily on clean dry skin.
Is sunscreen essential?
Yes. Vivier states it is important to limit sun exposure and always wear a sunscreen rated SPF 30 or higher while using it.
Can I get advice before buying?
Yes. The consultation is free and includes a skin analysis, and pigment is the category where that conversation saves the most wasted spending.
