About this item
Highlights
- Lightning Wand is a triple threat that tackles dark spots in 3 ways:
- Exfoliates with Glycolic Acid to clear away dead skin and help the serum work faster.
- Brightens with a supercharged trifecta of Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid, and Vitamin C. When these 3 ingredients combine, they get even stronger, delivering a hyper-potent brightening strike unlike any other. Color-corrects with a sheer peachy-yellow tint to keep spots under wraps while the serum works its magic.
- Designed in a super-portable wand with a stainless steel rollerball, it's the perfect way to spot treat whenever, wherever. Use it 2x daily for noticeably bright, even-looking skin.
Description
Lightning Wand is a twice-daily brightening and illuminating serum that visibly fades the look of post-acne marks. The rollerball zaps dark spots with a trio of advanced brighteners, glycolic acid, and sheer color-correcting tint — so you can bounce back after a breakout.
Lightning Wand is perfect for brightening post-acne marks and scars. (Got sun spots? It handles those, too.)
Lightning Wand's texture is designed to seal ultra-powerful brighteners into your skin. The serum has a slightly stick, which dries as the ingredients get locked in.
You can layer it under makeup or go totally makeup-free — either way, the translucent yellow tint will stay totally invisible on all skin tones (and help hide dark spots).

For some reason when I used this product I had a horrible allergic reaction. I don’t have sensitive skin so I’m not quite sure what happened.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It really helped w my big marks but it dried out my skin and I found that there were smaller marks that appeared. I stopped using it and it seems that these marks are going away now. Compared to this, I would prefer the post blemish cream.
Wow,I love it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] HERO LIGHTNING WAND: this wand is wonderful, its function is incredible, it helps to lighten those dark spots and remove dead skin, it is very easy to use since it has a metal roller at the tip making it much easier when applying, in addition to everything it is a wand that has ingredients such as niacinamide, tranexamic acid and vitamin C, which are ingredients that help to have a more luminous and radiant skin, it is a serum that since I have been using it for 2 weeks now I have liked it a lot. I love to apply it in the morning and at night after applying my toner I use my LIGHTNING Wand and of course then I continue with my other skin care products and so it has worked perfectly for me.
so good

I used the Lightening Wand for a couple of months continuously. It's easy to use, lightweight and absorbs quickly. I noticed a slight result but nothing significant.
Indeed a magic wand!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is becoming one of my favorite and reliable brand out there, I have always had hormonal acne issues for the past 20yrs, I have this habit of picking my pimple and that left so many scares and dark spots, I’m now using the pimple patch which is preventing from further dark spots but this serum works wonderfully well the all those pigmentation and prevents from new acne too. I must say it’s one of the coolest packaging, want is very convenient to travel with and application is super easy, works every single penny. Love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a free sample of this Hero Lightening Wand for Dark Spot Brightening Serum under your eyes. I like that it has vitamin C and it also makes your skin smooth. I recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I get an adult ace once in a while so I decided to try this serum. I apply this at night, just before going to bed. This pen is so easy to use and easy to store too. Does not take much space. My first Hero product was the acne patches years ago and I have continued to use that product. This one is good too. After a week's use I see that the acne marks have become less apparent. The dispenser is reasonable with no wastage, so it will last a long time. Overall I would say this wand is effective for fading dark spots over the face.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you're looking for a serum that brightens and smooths, then I highly recommend Hero Lightning Wand. It's easy to apply in 3 simple steps. It helped reduce the dark spots tremendously. This rollerball serum also brightens your skin.

KC - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
I’ve been using this product for a while, and I have noticed a difference in some of my dark spots. My acne is more cystic and always leaves dark spots on my face after a breakout. This product helped some of the lighter, smaller spots fade away. However, I’ve noticed that recently, when my wand is about half empty, it’ll start to leak. I end up losing a significant amount of product and it makes me feel like I’m wasting my money since I don’t get a full use out of it.
Amazing product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just love this product. It does what it says it will. Dries fast on your skin. The only complaint I have is the delivery system is ridiculous. Press the button they say. The product will come out on the roller ball. Well, only after I’ve pressed the button about 100 times. It’s annoying as heck. I’ve purchased a few of this product over the last year or so and it’s always the same. It’s a roller ball! Why doesn’t it come out easier?
Worked for my melasma

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have melasma/hyperpigmentation on my upper lip caused by oral contraceptives - I stopped taking the pill years ago but unfortunately the hyperpigmentation stuck around. I have tried various serums and treatments, and even laser therapy, and this is the most effective remedy I've tried. Other treatment usually cause dryness and flakiness but this one doesn't, plus it's super effective. I used it consistently for 3 weeks and I see a noticeable difference. I also love the component, it's super easy to apply and doesn't get messy. I highly recommend, at least for melasma.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i really love this stuff! this and the ordinary alpha arbutin is the only stuff that helps my dark spots fade but i’ve purchased 3 or 4 of these from my local shop and each time when i store it on my counter standing up it starts to leak after awhile which really sucks because i end up losing so much product! i’m going to start laying it on its side and hopefully have better results with the leaking issue but i think the packaging might need an upgrade <3
Amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My skin has been prone to random breakouts from stress and dairy, new pimples would pop up everyday and all of them would leave marks. I use this product in combination with normal pimple patches as well as my normal skincare including spf. So far, I have actually seen results in the past 3ish weeks! Some of my larger areas of concern saw less progress but many of my less intense marks have been lightening up very quickly. Hoping to see more progress as it has only been a few weeks, but I’m hopeful because I still have over half of the bottle left and have been using it 2x/day.
