How it works
Glutathione leads the ingredient panel on this formula. Glutathione is a small peptide the body uses as one of its main antioxidants. In skincare it is used as an antioxidant and for the look of dullness; it is unstable in water, so formulas that carry it are usually built around protecting it. On this panel it sits alongside Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid and Carnitine. 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.

Key actives
Glutathione
Glutathione is a small peptide the body uses as one of its main antioxidants. In skincare it is used as an antioxidant and for the look of dullness; it is unstable in water, so formulas that carry it are usually built around protecting it.
Niacinamide
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.
Tranexamic Acid
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.
Carnitine
Carnitine is an amino acid derivative the body uses to move fatty acids inside cells. In a formula it is a conditioning, water-holding ingredient.
What is the PURCELL 88B/ml L-Glutathione Flexible Liposome 20ml for?
It is a PURCELL serum sized at 20 ml, used after toner, before moisturizer. In practice that means it goes on a few drops smoothed over the face and pressed in until absorbed. It is one step in a routine rather than a stand-alone treatment.
Where does a serum go in my routine?
After toner and before moisturizer. That is the standard serum-step placement, whether it is used once a day or in both the morning and evening routine. Applying it to slightly damp skin after toner helps it spread evenly.
Can I use it with another serum?
One serum step at a time is the more common approach so that neither one is diluted against the other. If more than one serum is wanted, alternating them by day or by time of day is a simpler way to fit both in without stacking actives.
Is this the Korean-market version of the 88B/ml L-Glutathione Flexible Liposome 20ml?
Yes. What ships is the PURCELL formula sold on shelves in Korea, in the same 20 ml, not a version reformulated for the US market.
Is this safe for sensitive skin?
There is no single answer that fits every skin, so a patch test on a small area is the safer way to try any new serum for the first time. Watching for redness or irritation over a day or two before using it on the full face or body is the usual approach.

How to use
- Use the PURCELL 88B/ml L-Glutathione Flexible Liposome 20ml after toner, before moisturizer. A few drops smoothed over the face and pressed in until absorbed.
Worth knowing
- Layering more than one serum in the same step can dilute what each one is doing rather than add benefit, so one serum at a time is usually enough.
- As with any new skincare step, patch-test on a small area first if you have a history of reacting to new products.
