Skin1004 Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule

Skin1004 made this ampoule for uneven tone, dullness and the look of dark spots:

• Old breakout marks: the flat marks a pimple leaves behind.
• Uneven tone: patches darker than the rest of your face.
• Dullness: skin that looks tired and flat.

In Korea, it’s registered as a brightening functional cosmetic.

It works best with sunscreen every morning. See our Dark Spots Kit.

It’s your serum step, after toner and before moisturizer.

• Morning: cleanse, tone, this ampoule, moisturizer, then sunscreen.
• Night: cleanse, tone, this ampoule, then moisturizer.

Using retinol at night? Keep this ampoule for your morning routine.

Niacinamide makes up 4% and tranexamic acid 2%, joined by a vitamin C derivative:

• Niacinamide: a form of vitamin B3 that helps brighten.
• Tranexamic acid: there to even out skin tone.
• 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid: a vitamin C derivative chosen for stability.

Together they help address melanin, the pigment behind dark spots.

• MadeWhite™: encapsulated madecassoside, from Madagascar centella.
• The capsules: tiny white beads that melt as you spread the gel.
• Centella extract: soothes skin that’s easily upset.
• Panthenol and betaine: add hydration.

Popular brightening serums attract fakes. A fake can sting, or simply do nothing.

On deeper skin, irritation can leave new dark marks, the very thing you’re trying to fade.

We sell only authentic Korean skincare, sourced from authorized distributors and wholesalers.
