Product overview
Fade Out Anti-Wrinkle Whitening Day Cream SPF25 (50ml) is a daily brightening moisturiser with sun protection from Fade Out, formulated with Niacinamide, Lactic Acid, and botanical brightening extracts.
Naming note: Fade Out's UK/official site names this product "Anti-Wrinkle Brightening Day Cream SPF25" (without "whitening" wording), while South and Southeast Asian retailers sell the identical formula as "Anti-Wrinkle Whitening Day Cream SPF25" -- this is a regional naming variant, not a different formula. Ingredient note: this product does not contain retinol or any retinoid; its actives are Niacinamide, Lactic Acid, and plant extracts. Sun protection note: an independent ingredient review has noted that this formulation relies on UVB-focused filters without a dedicated UVA filter, so it should not be assumed to provide broad-spectrum UVA protection.
