How it works
The Mela Zero Dark Spot Toning Ampoule is a 32ml ampoule, used after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. The active it is built around is Niacinamide, named fourth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Adenosine, Hexylresorcinol and Tranexamic Acid, 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 ampoule format rather than by the list alone. Fation sells this Niacinamide ampoule in Korea, and this is that version.

Key actives
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. On this ampoule's own ingredient list it is named fourth.
Adenosineactive
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated. It is named twenty-sixth on this ampoule's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Hexylresorcinolactive
Hexylresorcinol is a resorcinol derivative used for the look of dark spots and uneven tone. It is one of the stronger non-prescription tone ingredients. The panel names it thirty-fourth on this ampoule's list, beside Niacinamide.
Tranexamic Acidactive
Tranexamic Acid is a synthetic amino acid derivative used for the look of stubborn discolouration and post-blemish marks. It is water soluble, stable and comfortable next to niacinamide, which is how it is usually paired. It is named thirty-seventh on this ampoule's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Arbutinactive
Arbutin is the naturally occurring form of the same compound, from bearberry and related plants, used for the look of uneven tone. The alpha isomer is the more stable of the two. It is named thirty-eighth on this ampoule's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Where does this ampoule go in my routine?
After toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. Anything thinner than an ampoule 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.
What else is on the list besides Niacinamide?
Adenosine, Hexylresorcinol and Tranexamic Acid. The order they are printed in on this ampoule's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Niacinamide sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Arbutin, Bisabolol and Glutathione.

How to use
- Apply a few drops to clean skin after toner, morning or night as directed on the pack, and follow with moisturizer to seal it in. Ampoules are typically used as a concentrated course rather than an everyday staple.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this ampoule on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Niacinamide on the list.
- Introduce this ampoule on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Niacinamide rather than to three changes at once.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
