EXTRA STRENGTH FADING KIT

8% Alpha Arbutin | 4% Kojic Acid | Multi-Pathway Brightening Technology | Fresh-Mixed Powder + Solution System

Advanced Dark Spot + Hyperpigmentation Treatment

HEDO Extra Strength Fading Kit is an intensive multi-pathway brightening treatment designed to target the appearance of dark spots, uneven tone and stubborn hyperpigmentation without Hydroquinone.

At the center of the formula are confirmed concentrations of 8% Alpha Arbutin + 4% Kojic Acid, supported by multiple complementary brightening technologies including Ascorbic Acid, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Tetrahydrodiferuloylmethane, Ferulic Acid, Methyl Gentisate, Octyl Gentisate, Phytic Acid and Mandelic Acid.

The treatment uses a fresh-mixed powder + solution system, keeping key ingredients separate until activation. Once mixed, the treatment solution is absorbed into the dry pads for targeted use on areas of visible discoloration.

8% ALPHA ARBUTIN | 4% KOJIC ACID | DUAL VITAMIN C | GENTISATE COMPLEX | TETRAHYDRODIFERULOYLMETHANE | FERULIC ACID

HERE'S THE SCIENCE.

Why Target Hyperpigmentation From Multiple Pathways?

Visible hyperpigmentation is complex.

Dark spots and uneven-looking tone can be influenced by multiple stages involved in pigment formation, transfer and the accumulation of pigmented surface cells.

For that reason, HEDO doesn't rely on a single brightening ingredient.

Extra Strength Fading Kit combines multiple pigment-targeting ingredients + antioxidants + exfoliating acids + peptides + advanced formulation support to address visible discoloration through a broader cosmetic strategy.

8% ALPHA ARBUTIN

High-Level Targeted Brightening

Alpha Arbutin is a well-known cosmetic brightening ingredient used to help reduce the appearance of uneven pigmentation and dark spots.

HEDO Extra Strength Fading Kit contains a confirmed 8% Alpha Arbutin, making it one of the central actives within the formula's intensive brightening system.

8% ALPHA ARBUTIN

TARGETED DARK SPOT SUPPORT

VISIBLE TONE REFINEMENT

4% KOJIC ACID

Advanced Pigment Support

Kojic Acid provides a second major pathway within the formula.

HEDO uses a confirmed 4% Kojic Acid, complementing Alpha Arbutin within the treatment's approach to stubborn visible discoloration.

Rather than relying on either ingredient alone:

8% ALPHA ARBUTIN + 4% KOJIC ACID

form the foundation of HEDO's Extra Strength Fading system.

DUAL VITAMIN C SYSTEM

The powder contains two forms of Vitamin C:

ASCORBIC ACID

The direct form of Vitamin C, incorporated for antioxidant and visible brightening support.

SODIUM ASCORBYL PHOSPHATE

A Vitamin C derivative that provides complementary antioxidant and skin-brightening support.

Together, they create a dual Vitamin C system within the broader pigment-correcting formula.

ADVANCED GENTISATE COMPLEX

Extra Strength Fading Kit also incorporates:

Methyl Gentisate

Octyl Gentisate

These specialized ingredients expand the formula beyond conventional Arbutin and Kojic Acid brightening and contribute to its multi-pathway approach to visible discoloration.

TETRAHYDRODIFERULOYLMETHANE

Tetrahydrodiferuloylmethane is incorporated as part of the formula's advanced antioxidant and visible tone-support system.

It complements Alpha Arbutin, Kojic Acid, Vitamin C and the Gentisate complex within the broader brightening strategy.

FERULIC ACID

Ferulic Acid adds further antioxidant support and complements the formula's Vitamin C and broader antioxidant system.

MANDELIC + MALIC + PHYTIC ACIDS

Extra Strength Fading Kit also addresses accumulated surface discoloration through gentle exfoliating support.

MANDELIC ACID

Helps refine accumulated surface cells and supports brighter, more even-looking skin.

MALIC ACID

Provides complementary surface-refining support.

PHYTIC ACID

Contributes both antioxidant and visible tone-support benefits.

Together, these acids help improve surface clarity while the formula's targeted brightening ingredients address the appearance of uneven pigmentation.

ADVANCED PEPTIDE SUPPORT

The solution contains:

Myristoyl Hexapeptide-5

Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17

These peptides add another layer of advanced skin-conditioning technology to the treatment.

DIMETHYL ISOSORBIDE + PHOSPHOLIPIDS

The solution incorporates Dimethyl Isosorbide and Phospholipids as part of its sophisticated formulation system.

These ingredients support the overall formulation and help create an effective vehicle for the treatment's extensive active complex.

FRESH-MIX POWDER + SOLUTION TECHNOLOGY

One of the most distinctive features of HEDO Extra Strength Fading Kit is its two-part system.

The treatment's powder and liquid solution remain separate until activation.

STEP 1 | MIX

Add the powder to the pad solution and shake well.

STEP 2 | ACTIVATE THE PADS

Remove the dry pads from the jar and pour in the freshly mixed solution.

STEP 3 | SATURATE

Return the pads to the jar a few at a time, allowing them to absorb the treatment evenly.

STEP 4 | WAIT

Allow the pads to soak for approximately 15 to 20 minutes before use.

POWDER + SOLUTION | FRESHLY MIXED | ACTIVATED AT DISPENSING

THE HEDO MULTI-PATHWAY BRIGHTENING SYSTEM

TARGET + BRIGHTEN + REFINE + DEFEND

8% Alpha Arbutin

Tetrahydrodiferuloylmethane + Ferulic Acid
Provide advanced antioxidant and visible tone support.

Help refine accumulated surface cells and improve visible clarity.

Provide complementary peptide-based skin-conditioning support.

Customer video review of Extra Strength Fading Kit

I’m 53 years old and have suffered with melasma for a very long time. I’ve tried so many different products but none have worked as well as the hedo fading kit! I’m not wearing any foundation in this video so you can see how well is working. I’m ordering my third refill. My best advice is to stay consistent and be patient!

Extra Strength Fading Kit

Customer photo review of Extra Strength Fading Kit

The fading kit is amazing! My before and after pics prove it! Acne scars almost gone and my big sunspot has faded so much. This was after just a couple weeks.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

if I could give 100 stars. the pads have really helped with my dark spots. love love. everything HEDO. Thank you Christy.❤

Extra Strength Fading Kit

This is the only product along with the rest of the kit that basically unclog my pores and reduces my acne marks. Its always a struggle to find balance and keep your skin from freaking out. Hedo does it well. These pads are not harsh, but they are strong. I started out at night only and now use them day and night with the ocasional day off. One of my acne scars actually keloid and this has flattened it by 90%. So many benefits, I think this might be a pad I leave as a permanent staple in my routine. Its not that other products don't work, for example skinbetter science, they work very good and fast, but my skin gets congested for some reason and I develop blackheads, which I then have to extract, therefore causing the skin injury and then back to scar. This kit actually clears my skin, and I can see the blackheads basically dry out and dissappear. And if I do have a small hormonal pimple, this kit shrinks it and sometimes makes it disappear over night. Love it!!

Extra Strength Fading Kit

This fading kit is one of my staples I use every day. Its helping diminish my dark spots . I love the high effective ingredients from Hedo.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I've been using the 3-piece fading kit, and I'm really happy with the results! This is the first product I've used (and I've tried many) that has worked to fade my melasma. I have sensitive skin and contact dermatitis, but this hasn't bothered me at all!

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I was hesitant to try this fading kit, but I’m so glad I did. I’ve already noticed some lightening of my melasma and plan to continue using it. I’m especially happy to be off hydroquinone.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I have been using a month. The results are there. Will repurchase.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I truly saw a brightening of my skin regarding sun spots. Still working on it. It been about a month so far.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I’ve been using the kit for a year now, and I’m seriously impressed. My hyperpigmentation is fading, my skin tone looks way more even, and my face just looks brighter overall. It’s labeled “extra strength,” but it hasn’t irritated my skin at all. The kit comes with everything you need, which I love because I didn’t have to guess what to pair it with. Super easy to use—just follow the steps and be consistent. Oh, and don’t skip sunscreen while using it. Use Hedo SPF mist spray. Trust me. Long story short: if you’re tired of dark spots that won’t budge, give this a try. It’s become a staple in my skincare routine.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

This is my 3rd order of this kit. I absolutely LOVE this formulation for my dark spots. Its a daily must in my routine. I love the HEDO Skincare line soo much!

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I managed to do summer on the coast of south africa and still use same make up shades. I was super careful with sunscreen and avoid sun exposure, particularly during high UV index times. And i had my hedo fading kit twice a day! Thank you.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

Love Hedo! Anything I’ve used from Hedo is fantastic. The exfoliating pads, the sunscreen !

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I’m really impressed! These pads are incredibly effective! They’re gentle yet powerful, and I noticed visible improvement after three weeks. I use them morning and night. My skin feels smoother, and the dark spots on my face have lightened. I also appreciate that they don’t cause irritation. Overall, I’m very happy with the results and will definitely continue using them! Highly recommend for anyone looking to brighten their complexion and fade hyperpigmentation. Love it!

Extra Strength Fading Kit

Part of my pigmentation management regime. I cant live without it

Extra Strength Fading Kit

A definite if you have hyperpigmentation. I've been using it weekly along with other HEDO products and do see some fading occurring. I'm not done with them yet, but am sure I'll have better results when I'm done. A definite repurchase.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I love this formula so far. I use it on my face, neck, chest and back of hands. So versatile!

Extra Strength Fading Kit

My favorite brightening product ! I’m on my second refill . Love that there is a eco friendly refill of solution & pads .

Extra Strength Fading Kit

This stuff does not work. In fact, it has made one of my brown spots darker. I use it morning and night and there is NO difference in my sun spots. Wasted my money on this. I believed the hype and reviews but my recommendations is don’t waste your money. Find something that truly works.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

Store owner replied: This review is up as it is the law and with the guidelines that it must be. And I emailed to say no problem we are 100% guaranteed and I will refund you and you can return the product W Loox it is to post with in 14 days of the review but because it wasn't immediately posted you sent two more 1 star reviews and saying things that are not true w reviews. which I will copy and paste here so all can see what you felt you needed to say not once but 3 times for 1 product. C Spark Display name: C S. I wrote a negative review and they refuse to post it. Don’t believe the hype. This kit doesn’t work. It makes sun spots worse. They hid all the negative reviews Cynthia Sparks Display name: Cynthia S. This stuff does not work. In fact, it has made one of my brown spots darker. I use it morning and night and there is NO difference in my sun spots. Wasted my money on this. I believed the hype and reviews but my recommendations is don’t waste your money. Find something that truly works. Cynthia Sparks Display name: Cynthia S. Did absolutely NOTHING. In fact, it made one of my brown spots darker. Don’t believe the hype. What a waste of my money. NOW a bit about science and this product When using a product with ingredients like Alpha Arbutin, Kojic Acid, and Ascorbic Acid, dark spots can initially appear darker before lightening due to the exfoliation and skin renewal process. Which is a 28 day cycle and product was only purchased a little over 2 weeks from review Here was my initial email after your first review: Hi Cynthia I just received your review My apologies for your experience The fading pads can take time and consistency With that you will never waste your  money w my company because I am 💯 % Guaranteed So I am more than happy to refund you if you have any product left you can send back w a return label I will send to your email This isn’t hype the fading pads have no HQ that can disrupt your hormones so as stated it takes time and consistency This is my first 1 star so I will take the hit but you will receive your refund Ty Christy as stated I wrote that I will take the hit for the 1 star but you will receive your refund. HEDO has integrity and the only thing we want is our customers to be completely happy with our products or your money back w our guarantee. Three 1 stars on the same product will change my rating for our Fading Kit but there is always a first. Best, Christy

I love knowing it's 'fresh' because I am mixing the ingredients. It's something I use morning and night and am loving how bright my skin is becoming after only less than a month of using .

Extra Strength Fading Kit

The Extra Strength Fading Kit and the Radiance Tone Corrector are the best products I’ve ever used! I’ve been a “skincare junkie” for 35 years and have never had a product work like this! Although my dark spots are no longer visible, I will continue to use these products as maintenance and I also love how my skin looks all day when I’ve used the Fading Kit. I can’t say enough about this product and this AMAZING company.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

Love this product! Will always have in my skincare routine!

Extra Strength Fading Kit

This has helped with my dark spots from sun damage. They have faded so much. I accomplished the his by using the Extra Strength Fading Kit twice a day and the the low oh. vitamin c with glutathione. At the age of 63, I have tried so many products for dark spots. I had almost given up! Hedo products work. Get advice from Christy Buss, owner. She will tell you specifically which products you need. and how to introduce them into your current routine. Dee

Extra Strength Fading Kit

Excellent. It is still early but I’ve been using it daily and am very happy.

Extra Strength Fading Kit

WOW! Just WOW!!!! What an awesome product!!! My skin is so bright!!! Thank you HEDO!!

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I love this product using every morning with my other Hedo products

Extra Strength Fading Kit

I really like the skin brightening pads as I can already see some brightness after just a few weeks. Very easy instructions from Christy on how to mix and prepare pads. They have the perfect amount of moisture to the pads for whole face and neck. Leaves a clean feeling even with all the brightening ingredients. Excited to continue using daily to work on my stubborn sun spots. Highly recommend.
