Major Fade products were created with all skin types in mind. On oily skin, they are lightweight enough to not feel overbearing. On dry skin, they absorb easily and leave your skin feeling buttery soft for hours. If you have extra-dry skin or live in a dry climate, you can apply a rich basic moisturizer (no active ingredients!) after Major Fade Active Seal.

All the products work individually to improve discoloration. For the best results, use them together because they're designed to work synergistically. Major Fade Hyper Serum has the most potent level of skin-brightening actives.

You’ll start to notice a difference in four weeks, but expect to see most results—including improvement in skin tone, faded discoloration, and fewer dark spots—in six to eight weeks. As your skin improves, continue to use the products. Dr. Shereene Idriss’s #1 rule for patients with discoloration is: Be Consistent! You need to maintain a skincare routine that targets multiple points in the pigment production pathway, even when you’re not flaring up.

No. To treat melasma, the use of RX hydroquinone under the supervision of your doctor is required. The Major Fade Solution System is a cosmetic, not a drug. As defined by the FDA, a cosmetic cannot claim to diagnose, cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease or claim that it otherwise affects the structure or functions of the human body. That said, the Solution System has been clinically tested to improve skin tone, and Dr. Shereene Idriss recommends it to patients who want to improve all types of discoloration.

The Major Fade Solution System helps to improve all types of discoloration, including post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (the areas of discoloration that remain after pimples have healed), which can contribute to the overall look of acne scarring. While it has ingredients that help to improve skin texture, it is not formulated to treat the pitting and textural changes caused by acne.

Absolutely! A retinoid can boost the effects of the Major Fade Solution System and up your skin game. If you use a retinoid while using products from the Major Fade Solution System, we recommend applying it on the nights that you are not using Major Fade Flash Mask (or another exfoliating product). If you have sensitive skin, apply your retinoid after Major Fade Active Seal, which acts as a buffer. If you don’t have sensitive skin, you can apply the retinoid before or after Major Fade Hyper Serum.

Yes. The products are not designed to treat rosacea, but they contain ingredients that help to improve uneven skin tone and decrease redness.

Yes, but introduce one product at a time and patch test each product before you apply it fully. Be cautious with Major Fade Flash Mask, which contains exfoliating acids and may cause sensitivity for some people.

Yes! All skin types benefit from a brighter, more even-toned complexion.
