How it works
Missha is a mainstream Korean drugstore brand with one of the longest-running catalogs in Korean skincare, and Vita C Plus Spot Correcting Sleeping Mask Pack Cream 50ml is formulated as an overnight mask for the Korean market rather than a US-shelf reformulation. retinol is a retinoid ingredient with a long clinical record, and Korean formulation typically wraps it in stabilizing bases like this one to keep it usable for a daily routine. It sits at position 45 of 63 ingredients on this row's own list, ahead of most of the formula's supporting agents. niacinamide is one of the most established multi-tasking actives in Korean formulation, valued for supporting an even, calm-looking tone and a smoother surface texture with continued use. Further down the list, adenosine appears at position 36 of 63, adding a supporting layer rather than the lead role.
Key benefits
- retinol closes out the back half of the list at position 45 of 63, a supporting rather than lead role.

- adenosine closes out the back half of the list at position 36 of 63, a supporting rather than lead role.
- ceramide NP closes out the back half of the list at position 56 of 63, a supporting rather than lead role.
- sodium hyaluronate appears at position 21 of 63 on the ingredient list, ahead of most of the formula's supporting agents.
- No fragrance or parfum appears on this 63-ingredient list.
Inside the formula
Inside the formula
What is the Vita C Plus Spot Correcting Sleeping Mask Pack Cream 50ml?
It is Missha's overnight mask. retinol is a retinoid ingredient with a long clinical record, and Korean formulation typically wraps it in stabilizing bases like this one to keep it usable for a daily routine. Apply as the last step of your evening routine and leave on overnight, rinsing or wiping away in the morning if the texture calls for it.
What does retinol do in the Vita C Plus Spot Correcting Sleeping Mask Pack Cream 50ml?
retinol is a retinoid ingredient with a long clinical record, and Korean formulation typically wraps it in stabilizing bases like this one to keep it usable for a daily routine. It sits at position 45 of 63 on this row's own ingredient list.
Who is the Vita C Plus Spot Correcting Sleeping Mask Pack Cream 50ml suited for?
It suits normal, dry and combination skin looking for overnight hydration. Alcohol Denat is on the list, so very dry or reactive skin may want to patch test before working this into a full routine.
How do I use the Vita C Plus Spot Correcting Sleeping Mask Pack Cream 50ml?
Apply as the last step of your evening routine and leave on overnight, rinsing or wiping away in the morning if the texture calls for it. Give it a few weeks in that slot before judging the result, since an overnight mask works cumulatively rather than after one use.
Is the Vita C Plus Spot Correcting Sleeping Mask Pack Cream 50ml the authentic Korean-market formula?
Yes. We stock Missha's Korean-market formula rather than a version reformulated for US shelves. What ships is the 50ml unit sold on Korean shelves, with the Korean barcode and batch code intact on the box.

Ingredient list read from jolse.com on 10 September 2026.
53 of 60 explained
- Purified water solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- glycerin humectant
- Glycerin is the most used humectant in skincare. It draws water into the outer layer of skin and holds it there, and it is one of the very few ingredients whose hydrating effect is settled science rather than marketing. Higher amounts feel tacky, which is why it is usually blended.
- 1,2-hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- pentylene glycol humectant
- Pentylene Glycol hydrates and, like the other longer-chain glycols, makes a formula less hospitable to microbes so the preservative system can be lighter. It also improves how evenly a product spreads.
- niacinamide active
- Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is used at roughly 2 to 5 percent for the look of uneven tone and visible pores, and it is water soluble, stable and comfortable beside almost every other active, which is why it turns up in so many lists.
- diglycerin humectant
- Diglycerin is two glycerin units joined together. It holds water like glycerin but feels less tacky, so it is used where a formula needs hydration without drag.
- dipropylene glycol humectant
- Dipropylene Glycol is a glycol used as a solvent and a light humectant. Its main job is keeping the rest of the formula dissolved and the texture fluid rather than adding hydration of its own.
- phellodendron amurense bark extract plant extract
- Amur cork tree bark, another traditional berberine-bearing herbal ingredient. It is yellow and appears in blends aimed at the look of congested skin.
- haematococcus pluvialis extract antioxidant
- An algae extract that is the main natural source of astaxanthin, the deep red carotenoid. It is used as a plant antioxidant and colours a formula orange-red.
- apple extract plant extract
- An apple extract declared by common name, with the plant part unstated. Apple fruit carries malic acid, sugars and polyphenols, while the leaf carries phloridzin instead.
- papaya fruit extract plant extract
- Papaya fruit extract. The fruit is where the enzyme papain comes from, and the extract is used both as a conditioning extract and in gentle enzyme formulas.
- grape extract plant extract
- A grape extract declared by common name, with the plant part unstated. Grape fruit and skin carry polyphenols and fruit acids, while the seed is the source of proanthocyanidins.
41 more explained
- orange peel oil fragrance component
- Sweet Orange Peel Oil is a citrus essential oil carrying limonene. It scents a formula, and limonene is one of the components EU labelling names separately.
- hydrogenated lecithin emulsifier
- Hydrogenated Lecithin is lecithin with its unsaturated bonds filled in, which makes it far more stable. It emulsifies and is the standard shell for the liposomes that carry actives into the outer layer of skin.
- sodium hyaluronate humectant
- Sodium Hyaluronate is the salt of hyaluronic acid, and it is what most products labelled hyaluronic actually contain. The salt dissolves more readily and the molecule is smaller, so it sits in the outer layer of skin rather than only on top of it.
- dicaprylyl ether emollient
- Dicaprylyl Ether is a very light emollient used to make a formula spread quickly and feel dry rather than oily.
- ammonium acryloyldimethyl taurate/VP copolymer thickener
- This is a synthetic thickener that gels quickly and holds an emulsion stable across a wide pH range. It gives a light, non-tacky body.
- panthenol humectant
- Panthenol is pro-vitamin B5: skin converts it to pantothenic acid. It is a humectant that holds water and leaves skin feeling soft and less tight, and it is one of the ingredients formulators reach for when a formula also contains something harsh.
- vinyl dimethicone silicone
- Vinyl Dimethicone is a silicone used as a building block of the crosspolymer gels that give a formula its soft, blurring feel.
- isononyl isononanoate emollient
- Isononyl Isononanoate is a branched ester used as a dry emollient. It spreads far for its weight and leaves almost no residue, which is why it appears in formulas that have to feel weightless.
- tromethamine pH adjuster
- Tromethamine neutralises acidic thickeners such as carbomer so they gel, and holds a formula near skin-friendly pH. It is used at a fraction of a percent.
- acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer thickener
- This is a carbomer relative with fatty side chains, so it thickens and stabilises an emulsion at the same time. It gives a light gel-cream body rather than a heavy one.
- Hydroxyacetophenone preservative booster
- Hydroxyacetophenone is an antioxidant that also strengthens a preservative system, so a formula needs less traditional preservative. Korean formulas pair it with 1,2-hexanediol constantly.
- dimethiconol silicone
- Dimethiconol is a high-molecular-weight silicone that leaves a longer-lasting smooth film than dimethicone. It is used for lasting slip and shine.
- alcohol denat solvent
- Alcohol Denat. is ethanol with a bitter additive that makes it undrinkable, which is a tax rule rather than a formulation choice. It behaves like alcohol: a fast-evaporating solvent that gives a weightless finish and can feel drying at higher levels.
- ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate (1,500,000 ppb) antioxidant
- Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate is an oil-soluble vitamin C ester, also sold as tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate. Being oil soluble it sits in the oil phase and is far more stable than pure vitamin C.
- ethylhexylglycerin preservative booster
- Ethylhexylglycerin softens skin and boosts a preservative system, which is why it is nearly always sitting beside phenoxyethanol or 1,2-hexanediol. It also cuts down the odour bacteria produce, so it turns up in deodorising products.
- adenosine active
- 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.
- sodium phytate chelator
- Sodium Phytate is a rice-derived chelator used in place of EDTA. It ties up trace metals so the formula stays stable and its colour and scent hold.
- butylene glycol humectant
- Butylene Glycol is a small glycol that does two jobs at once: it holds water in the top layer of skin and it dissolves plant extracts and actives that plain water cannot. It also thins a formula, which is why watery Korean essences lean on it.
- hydroxydecyl ubiquinone antioxidant
- Hydroxydecyl Ubiquinone is idebenone, a synthetic relative of coenzyme Q10 made to be more stable and more soluble than the natural molecule.
- agar thickener
- Agar is a seaweed polysaccharide that sets into a firm gel. It is the gelling agent behind jelly masks and thick sleeping packs.
- xanthan gum thickener
- Xanthan Gum is a polysaccharide made by fermenting sugar. It thickens a watery formula into a gel and holds the whole thing in suspension so nothing separates. Too much of it and a serum turns stringy, which is why it appears in fractions of a percent.
- tocopherol antioxidant
- Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer.
- gluconolactone exfoliant
- Gluconolactone is a PHA, the gentlest exfoliant class. Its molecule is too large to penetrate quickly, so it smooths the surface without the sting of an AHA, and it is a humectant at the same time.
- retinol active
- Retinol is the alcohol form of vitamin A and the strongest retinoid available without a prescription. Skin converts it in two steps to retinoic acid, and it is used at night, at low percentages, for the look of fine lines and rough texture. It can leave skin flaking while it acclimatises.
- citric acid pH adjuster
- Citric Acid is used in tiny amounts to bring a formula to the pH its actives need, not as an exfoliant at that level. It is an AHA, so at much higher concentrations it can also exfoliate.
- capryloyl salicylic acid exfoliant
- 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.
- hydrolyzed collagen protein
- Hydrolyzed Collagen is collagen broken into fragments small enough to dissolve in water. It cannot become collagen in skin; what it does is hold water at the surface and leave a smooth, conditioned film.
- mannitol humectant
- Mannitol is a sugar alcohol used as a humectant and antioxidant. It hydrates and helps stabilise the rest of the formula against oxidation.
- papain exfoliant
- Papain is a protein-cutting enzyme from papaya. Enzyme exfoliants act on protein rather than on the bonds an acid targets, and they need water to work, which is why they suit powder washes.
- propanediol humectant
- Propanediol is a plant-derived glycol used in place of propylene glycol. It hydrates, carries actives into solution, and gives a lighter, less sticky slip than glycerin at the same strength.
- raffinose sugar
- Raffinose is a three-unit plant sugar found in beans and beetroot. It holds water in the outer layer of skin and helps a formula stay comfortable as it dries down.
- bromelain active
- Bromelain is the protein splitting enzyme group found in pineapple stem and fruit. In cosmetics it is used in enzyme formulas that loosen the keratin holding dead surface cells together.
- cholesterol barrier lipid
- Cholesterol is the third of the three lipids the outer layer of skin is built from, with ceramides and fatty acids. Formulas that carry all three are following the ratio skin itself holds.
- ceramide NP barrier lipid
- Ceramide NP is the most used cosmetic ceramide, the same class of lipid that makes up roughly half the mortar between cells in the outer layer of skin. Added to a cream it slots into that structure, which is why ceramide formulas feel less leaky rather than merely greasy.
- ascorbic acid (0.04 ppb) antioxidant
- 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.
- ascorbyl glucoside (0.04 ppb) antioxidant
- Ascorbyl Glucoside is vitamin C bound to glucose, which keeps it stable until enzymes in skin release it. It is a mild, slow-release route to a vitamin C formula.
- glycine amino acid
- Glycine is the smallest amino acid and one of the free amino acids skin holds to keep water in the outer layer. In a formula it is a humectant and a mild buffer.
- glutamic acid amino acid
- Glutamic Acid is an amino acid used as a humectant and a mild pH adjuster. It is one of the components of skin's natural moisturising factor.
- arginine amino acid
- Arginine is an amino acid that does two jobs here: it holds water in the outer layer of skin, and it neutralises acidic gelling agents, which is why it often stands in for a synthetic pH adjuster.
- limonene fragrance component
- Limonene is the citrus-peel aromatic. It appears here because EU labelling requires 26 fragrance components to be named individually rather than hidden inside "fragrance", and it is one of them.
- linalool fragrance component
- Linalool is a floral aromatic found in lavender, bergamot and coriander. It is one of the 26 fragrance components EU labelling requires to be declared by name.

How to use
- Finish your evening routine first so this goes on over your thinner steps.
- Spread an even layer over the face, thicker on the areas that go dry overnight.
- Leave it on until morning, then rinse with lukewarm water and carry on with your usual routine.
- Do not sleep in it on a pillow you care about without a night to test it first, and never apply it on the waterline of the eye.
Worth knowing
- Alcohol Denat is on the list, so very dry or reactive skin may want to patch test before working this into a full routine.
- Retinol is on this list, so this step is best kept to the evening and paired with daytime sun care.
