- The Korean-market release of this serum, confirmed against its Korean barcode

## How it works

The Aqua Marine Deep Serum is a 30ml serum, used after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. The active it is built around is Niacinamide, named fifth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Adenosine, Raffinose and Panthenol, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Niacinamide stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the serum format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the serum Dr.Althea sells in Korea, Niacinamide and all.

## How to use

1. Use the Aqua Marine Deep Serum after your toner and before your moisturizer, morning and evening.
2. Two or three drops for the whole face, pressed in with the flats of your fingers while skin is still damp.
3. Follow with a moisturizer within a minute or two, because a thin serum left bare dries down and takes surface water with it.
4. Twice a day, every day. Do not use it as your only layer on skin that already feels tight; a serum is not a seal.

## FAQ

### Where does this serum go in my routine?

After toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. Anything thinner than a serum goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Niacinamide and not three changes at once.

### Is this the Korean-market serum or a US version?

The Korean-market one, Niacinamide and all. We match this serum to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.

### What else is on the list besides Niacinamide?

Adenosine, Raffinose and Panthenol. The order they are printed in on this serum's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Niacinamide sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Sodium Hyaluronate.
