No.5 Vitamin-Niacinamide Concentrated Pad
A soaked pad you swipe over clean skin to lay down a concentrated dose of brightening vitamins in a single step. It's aimed at dull, uneven tone and lingering dark marks, sweeping away surface buildup as you wipe. A convenient tone-care step for normal, combination or oily skin that wants glow without adding a separate serum.
More detail
Each pad is drenched in an essence led by niacinamide at 5% (50,000 ppm), with two forms of vitamin C (ascorbic acid and ascorbyl glucoside), tranexamic acid and glutathione working to brighten and even out tone over time. Mild exfoliating acids, gluconolactone (a PHA) and capryloyl salicylic acid (an LHA), help smooth texture and clear surface buildup, while glycerin, sodium hyaluronate and panthenol keep things hydrated. It's fragrance-free, though it does contain a small amount of alcohol low down in the formula. After cleansing, wipe one pad over the face as your first treatment step; because of the vitamin C and gentle acids, ease in a few times a week to start, always follow with sunscreen in the morning, and patch test if your skin is acid-sensitive.
