Medicube Kojic Turmeric Niacinamide Serum 30ml is a Korean brightening serum powered by a 70,500 ppm active complex of kojic acid, 5% niacinamide, and turmeric extract to visibly fade dark spots, even skin tone, and restore radiance in two weeks. Encapsulated snowflake-like micro-capsules release squalane and thioctic acid on application for deep absorption and barrier care.
Why This Serum Works
The triple-action formula targets pigmentation at the source. Kojic acid inhibits tyrosinase activity to slow new melanin formation, niacinamide refines tone and reinforces the moisture barrier, and turmeric delivers antioxidant defence against oxidative stress and inflammation, both of which trigger dark spots in the first place. Clinically tested by the Global Institute of Dermatological Sciences, the lightweight formula is calibrated to be gentle enough for sensitive skin while still powerful on stubborn marks. The encapsulated delivery system protects unstable actives from oxidation until application, so every drop reaches your skin at full potency.
Ideal For
Anyone in the UAE dealing with dark spots, post-acne marks (PIH), melasma, dullness, or uneven skin tone caused by sun exposure or breakouts. The dermatologist-tested, fragrance-light formula suits all skin types including sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin, and works especially well in the warm Dubai climate where heavy occlusive products are uncomfortable. For external use only; patch test on the inner arm before first use and consult a dermatologist if irritation persists beyond a few days.
Each drop is engineered around five clinically supported actives:
• Kojic Acid (9,900 ppm / ~0.99%): A well-studied tyrosinase inhibitor that visibly fades dark spots and post-acne marks.
• Niacinamide 5% (50,000 ppm): Vitamin B3 that evens tone, refines texture, minimises pore appearance, and supports barrier function.
• Turmeric Extract (10,600 ppm): Antioxidant-rich Curcuma Longa Root that soothes irritation and protects against environmental stress.
• Squalane and Thioctic Acid (Glow Capsules): Released by burst-on-contact micro-capsules to lock in moisture and reinforce the lipid barrier.
• Glycolic Acid and Vitamin E (Tocopherol): A low-percentage AHA paired with vitamin E to gently refine texture and add antioxidant support.
1. Cleanse and tone your skin in the morning and evening.
2. Dispense 2-3 drops onto your fingertips.
3. Gently pat across the face until the glow capsules fully absorb.
4. Follow with moisturiser. In the AM, always finish with broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, as kojic acid can increase sun sensitivity.
