Description
Beauty of Joseon Light On Serum Centella + Vitamin C is a lightweight Korean brightening serum that pairs 68% centella asiatica extract with 10% stable vitamin C to even skin tone, fade the look of dark spots, and calm redness. Built on a 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid derivative, it delivers vitamin C brightening without the stickiness, greasiness, or irritation of traditional formulas, absorbing quickly for a fresh, comfortable finish.
Why This Serum Works
Pure vitamin C is effective but unstable and can sting sensitive skin. This serum uses 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid, a stable derivative with high skin affinity that brightens and targets hyperpigmentation while staying gentle, and it holds up better over time than raw ascorbic acid. Centella asiatica, long known in Korean skincare as tiger grass, soothes irritation and supports the skin barrier. Together they brighten, even tone, and calm, making the formula friendly for daily use on most skin types.
Ideal For
Suitable for all skin types, this serum is especially suited to anyone dealing with dullness, uneven tone, dark spots, or post-blemish marks who wants vitamin C brightening without irritation. The gentle, soothing centella base makes it a comfortable choice for reactive and redness-prone skin too. If your skin is very sensitive, start with a small amount and build up gradually, and patch test before first use.

How to Use
Use after cleansing and toning, morning and evening:
1. Smooth out the skin with your toner first.
