    I’m formulating a skin serum which would be claimed as skin lightening and anti-acne ,can anyone suggest me a single molecule or actives which can have both the combined effects.

    I think that this is a bad idea, not to mention not able to be made or sold in the US. OTC drugs are best if they perform one function at a time.

    dipotassium glycyrrhizate has been noted as beneficial.

    Recently I had a sample of Apprecier arrive, and from the product literature, it claims to build collagen and have an anti-acne effect. However, getting stability is an issue with any vitamin C compound.
