Bizarre side effect from "Super Rhodiola"

I am experiencing patches of hyperpigmentation on both of my hands, the pigmentation is not symmetric across my left and right hands. I am still not sure that Ceretropics Super Rhodiola is causing this, but it started 3 days after I added the supplement to my usual stack. The other culprit could fasoracetam, but i have been using it for about 3 weeks now without such side effects.
My phone camera had a hard time focusing and resolving the spots, but here they are: http://imgur.com/Oqll4S7
Has anyone tried the Super Rhodiola for an extended amount of time and experienced something similiar? I will discontinue all my substances and see if it goes away.

UPDATE: I woke up tonight to find that the spots have greatly decreased in intensity, in fact I can only see two right now. Since stopping my fasoracetam and Rhodiola I am experiencing some withdrawal symptoms which I would mostly have to attribute to fasoracetam since I have used it for a relatively long time. I am not experiencing any orgasm when I ejaculate, I just ejaculate and feel the same afterwords, strange. Also, I am experiencing insomnia as I sit here and write…

Specifically for rhodiola. It seems to me that what goes up must eventually come down, and rhodiola's effects are hardly subtle (especially in concentrated extracts).

I do not notice any withdrawals. Adaptogenic herbs do not seem to have withdrawal effects. You might feel more tired than usual, but nothing like a real withdrawal.
