Key actives
Ascorbic Acidantioxidant
Ascorbic Acid is pure vitamin C, the most researched form and also the least stable: it needs a low pH and airtight packaging to stay active. It is an antioxidant used for the look of dullness and uneven tone. It is the entry this lotion is named after, and the list carries it.
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. The panel names it sixth on this lotion's list, beside Ascorbic Acid.
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 twenty-eighth on this lotion's list, beside Ascorbic Acid.
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-fifth on this lotion's list, alongside Ascorbic Acid.
Xanthophyllantioxidant
Xanthophyll is the yellow carotenoid family lutein belongs to, found in marigold and leafy greens. It is used as a plant antioxidant and tints a formula yellow. It is named thirty-sixth on this lotion's list, alongside Ascorbic Acid.
How to use
- Apply after cleansing and toning, patting or smoothing a small amount evenly over the face and neck. Follow with the next step in your routine, layering thinnest to thickest. Use morning and night unless your skin runs sensitive, in which case start with once daily.
Where does this lotion go in my routine?
As the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. Anything thinner than a lotion 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 Ascorbic Acid and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market lotion or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Ascorbic Acid and all. We match this lotion 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 Ascorbic Acid?
Niacinamide, Adenosine and Tranexamic Acid. The order they are printed in on this lotion's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Ascorbic Acid sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Xanthophyll, Tocopherol and Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate.

How it works
The Vitamin C Glow Capsule Lotion is a 80ml lotion, used as the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. The antioxidant it is built around is Ascorbic Acid, named thirty-eighth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Adenosine and Tranexamic Acid, so the antioxidant is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Ascorbic Acid stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the lotion format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the lotion Hanskin sells in Korea, Ascorbic Acid and all.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this lotion on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Ascorbic Acid on the list.
- Introduce this lotion on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Ascorbic Acid 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.
