About this deal

The serum is formulated with a 7% concentration of a vitamin C derivative, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, which is more stable than pure vitamin C, yet absorbs into your skin and metabolizes into pure vitamin C in your skin to provide antioxidant, collagen-boosting, and brightening benefits. Ascorbic Acid: This serum uses pure vitamin C to brighten your skin while improving your skin texture and reducing the look of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone. Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate: Sodium ascorbyl phosphate (SAP) is a vitamin C derivative that is a gentle, stable alternative to pure vitamin C. It has antioxidant benefits and may even promote collagen production, which improves elasticity and reduces the look of skin aging. SAP also brightens skin tone as well as lightens hyperpigmentation, including post-acne marks. It even has antimicrobial properties which fight P. acnes, the acne-causing bacteria. How long have I been using this?: I had the bottle in the cupboard for a month before opening it and using it (I shouldn’t have done that and I should have kept this in the fridge – but I just can’t be bothered to refrigerate my skincare). So once I started using it, the product had already begun to turn yellow (you’ll see what it looks like in the Youtube video above, when it started to oxidise). And how yellow the product is in the pictures is what it looked like a month after opening and using in my routine.

Turmeric Root Extract: A natural antioxidant, this ingredient helps to reduce inflammation and improve circulation for a brighter complexion.

Niacinamide can even help regulate sebum production, helping to balance oily and acne-prone skin. Centella Asiatica Extract, Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract, Madecassoside, and Asiaticoside: These ingredients are all derived from the Centella Asiatica plant, which helps promote wound healing and skin regeneration. Please note that there are essential oils (bergamot and lavender) in this Korean serum, although it is free of artificial fragrance.

O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid: This is a stabilized form of vitamin C that helps brighten skin, reduce signs of aging, and promote collagen production. It tends to be less irritating than pure vitamin C. Panthenol: Also known as pro-vitamin B-5, panthenol is soothing, moisturizing, and has healing properties. Meebak Cica & Vitamin C Serum is formulated with two kinds of vitamin C to brighten your complexion, plus cica to restore your skin barrier and soothe dry, irritated skin. Most vitamin C derivatives used in skincare are both stable and non-irritating. They provide many of the same benefits as pure vitamin C.
