So sorry to hear that. But I don't think it's a purging because there's no active ingredients that can lead to purge

I'm pretty sure it's purging. Purging appears on the skin when we use acids or retinoids, you can see purging at first 1-3 months and then your skin gets better so all I can say is "brace yourself, it will get better" :)

TA in general will not cause purging, it may be other ingredients in the products which caused your purging. You can look for other TA products such as TIL one instead of this brand.

Thank you so much for the recommendation, I will look more into this product and hoping I would convince myself to afford another serum after wasting on this current onešŸ˜­šŸ’ø

No there shouldnā€™t be purging with tranexamic acid. There is no ingredient in it that would cause purging, itā€™s not retinol. Stop using it. It may be that brand or it could be tranexamic acid all together but usually itā€™s very gentle. I looked at the ingredients and there is a lot of fruit extracts and saffron in it so that might be the reason as to why you broke out.
