How it works
The Green Tomato Serum is a serum, used after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. The plant extract it is built around is Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract, named first on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Adenosine and Gluconolactone, so the plant extract is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract 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 FULLY sells in Korea, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract and all.

Key actives
Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extractplant extract
Tomato fruit extract, a source of lycopene and other carotenoids. It is used as a plant antioxidant extract. It is the entry this serum is named after, and the list carries it.
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is named eighth on this serum's list, alongside Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract.
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. The panel names it forty-first on this serum's list, beside Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract.
Gluconolactoneexfoliant
Gluconolactone is a PHA, the gentlest exfoliant class. It is named thirty-ninth on this serum's list, alongside Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract.
Capryloyl Salicylic Acidexfoliant
Capryloyl Salicylic Acid is salicylic acid with a fatty tail, sometimes sold as LHA. It stays nearer the surface than salicylic acid and works at a higher pH, so it exfoliates more evenly and more gently. It is named fifty-first on this serum's list, alongside Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract.
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 Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market serum or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract 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 Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract?
Niacinamide, Adenosine and Gluconolactone. The order they are printed in on this serum's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Capryloyl Salicylic Acid, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 and Bifida Ferment Lysate.

How to use
- Use the Green Tomato Serum after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening.
- Apply a moderate amount evenly over the face and pat lightly for better absorption.
- Toner first so the surface is damp, then this, then about a minute before your moisturizer goes over the top.
- Twice a day, every day. Do not stack it with a second serum of the same kind; two hydrating serums in one routine do the work of one.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this serum on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract on the list.
- Gluconolactone and Salicylic Acid on this list makes this serum an exfoliating step, so do not stack it with another one on the same night.

BHAs like salicylic acid get really deep into the pores, whereas the water-soluble ones don't go as deep.

This means that gluconolactone acts as an exfoliating acid, but also as a moisturizer. It has moisturizing, soothing, and lightening properties, working well on dry skin.
