Minimises Oil & Sebum, Anti-Inflammatory and Evens Skin Tone.

10% Niacinamide does the technical work of regulating sebum, refining pores, fading post-acne marks, strengthening the barrier. We also added 0.5% Ginseng Root Extract sourced from Korea — a centuries-old skin-radiance ingredient at the heart of Korean skincare, prized for both its antioxidant glow and its calming, anti-inflammatory properties — because clear skin without glow isn't the goal; bright, even-toned & calm skin is.

Why it Works?

Regulates oil, refines pores, anti-inflammatory and stays gentle on skin.

10% Niacinamide — the workhorse. Regulates sebum, refines pores, fades post-acne marks, strengthens the barrier.

0.5% Korean Ginseng — the calming hero. Sourced and manufactured in Korea. Used in Korean skincare for centuries for its anti-inflammatory ginsenosides, which soothe irritation, calm redness, and keep skin balanced.

Kakadu Plum Extract — the brightener. Amplifies niacinamide's work on pigmentation and uneven tone, and gives the formula its glow.

Papaya Fruit Extract — the pore clarifier. Contains papain, a natural enzyme that gently dissolves the dead skin cells clogging pores from the inside.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this serum break me out or cause purging?

No. Korean Ginseng calms inflammation as the niacinamide works, and Papaya enzyme keeps pores clear from the inside instead of forcing congestion to the surface. If your skin is sensitive or new to actives, start with once a day for the first week before moving to twice daily.

Can I use this with Vitamin C, Retinol, or AHAs/BHAs?

Yes, with timing. Use Vitamin C in the morning and Niacinamide in the evening, or apply ten minutes apart; with retinol, use retinol at night and niacinamide in the morning. Avoid layering directly with strong AHAs or BHAs in the same step — alternate days work better.

How long before I see results?

Most users notice less shine and smaller-looking pores within two to three weeks of consistent use. Post-acne marks and uneven tone take longer — six to eight weeks of daily use is realistic, and consistency matters more than frequency.

Is the Korean Ginseng actually from Korea?

Yes. Our Korean Ginseng extract is sourced and manufactured in Korea, with a Certificate of Analysis to confirm it — available on request with any order.

Is this safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Niacinamide and Korean Ginseng are both generally considered safe, and this formula contains no retinoids, salicylic acid, or essential oils. That said, every pregnancy is different — please check with your doctor before adding any new product to your routine.
