Overview
This targeted essence from Rohto's beloved Melano CC line delivers pure vitamin C (ascorbic acid) along with vitamin E to help fade existing dark spots, acne marks, and hyperpigmentation while working to prevent new ones from forming. Its lightweight, fast-absorbing texture sinks in quickly without stickiness, making it a practical daily addition for clearer, more even-toned skin. A cult favorite in Japanese skincare for its straightforward, effective approach to brightening and spot care.
Why You’ll Love It
- Helps visibly reduce dark spots, pimple marks, and uneven tone with consistent use
- Light and non-greasy formula that layers easily under moisturizer or makeup
- Supports acne-prone skin by helping prevent breakouts and inflammation
Formulated for Excellence
At its core, this essence relies on active vitamin C to suppress melanin production and brighten skin, paired with vitamin E for added antioxidant support. Anti-inflammatory and antibacterial ingredients like dipotassium glycyrrhizinate and isopropyl methylphenol help calm and protect, while the stable delivery allows it to penetrate effectively without oxidizing quickly in its tube packaging.
Ideal if you're dealing with post-acne marks, mild hyperpigmentation, or want preventive brightening without heavy textures. It suits most skin types, including oily and acne-prone, and is gentle enough for regular use—though patch testing is smart if you have very sensitive skin or are new to vitamin C.
- After cleansing and applying toner/lotion, dispense 4-5 drops onto your palm or fingertips.
- Gently pat or massage into the face, focusing on areas with dark spots, acne scars, or uneven tone (can be used all over or as a spot treatment).
- Follow with moisturizer and sunscreen during the day. Use once daily (morning or evening); consistent use yields best results— one tube lasts about 5-6 months with this amount.
- Ascorbic Acid (Active Vitamin C) – Pure form that brightens, fades spots, and supports collagen
- Tocopherol Acetate (Vitamin E Derivative) – Antioxidant that stabilizes vitamin C and protects skin
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate – Soothes inflammation and calms irritated skin
- Isopropyl Methylphenol – Antibacterial to help prevent acne-causing bacteria
- Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (Vitamin C Derivative) – Additional stable vitamin C for enhanced brightening
