How it works
3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is named on the ingredient panel on this cream. 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a stable vitamin C derivative that skin converts to ascorbic acid. It survives in a formula far better than pure vitamin C and works at a gentler pH, so it suits skin that finds the pure acid uncomfortable. On this panel it sits alongside Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract, Niacinamide and Tranexamic Acid. Grape Fruit Extract carries polyphenols and fruit acids. It is used as an antioxidant plant extract.

Key actives
3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid
3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a stable vitamin C derivative that skin converts to ascorbic acid. It survives in a formula far better than pure vitamin C and works at a gentler pH, so it suits skin that finds the pure acid uncomfortable.
Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract
Grape Fruit Extract carries polyphenols and fruit acids. It is used as an antioxidant plant extract.
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.

Is this the Korean-market formula or a US version?
This is the Korean-market formula Sungboon Editor sells on shelves in Korea, not a version reformulated for the US shelf.
What step does this cream go in a routine?
Smooth over the face as one of the last steps of a routine, morning or night.
Can I use this with other actives in my routine?
Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Water generally layers well alongside a normal routine; introduce any new active gradually and watch how your skin responds over the first week or two.

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.
