## How it works

Arbutin is named on the ingredient panel on this serum. Arbutin is the naturally occurring form of the same compound, from bearberry and related plants, used for the look of uneven tone. The alpha isomer is the more stable of the two. On this panel it sits alongside niacinamide, tocopheryl acetate and allantoin. 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.

## How to use

1. Cleanse and tone, then apply this while the skin is still slightly damp so it spreads without dragging.
2. Use one or two pumps for the whole face and press it in with flat palms rather than rubbing in circles.
3. Wait until the surface feels tacky rather than wet, then put your moisturiser on top.
4. Do not use it as your only layer on dry skin, since a light fluid left uncovered is the first thing to evaporate.

## FAQ

### Where does this sit in a routine?

After toner or essence and before moisturizer, as a concentrated middle step rather than the first thing applied to unprepped skin. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.

### Can I use it under makeup?

Yes, let it fully absorb before applying the rest of your routine and any makeup, rather than layering on top of a wet serum. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.

### How much should I apply?

A small amount, about the size of a coin, covers the face and neck; more product does not absorb any faster. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.

### Can I mix it with other serums?

Introduce it gradually alongside other actives rather than combining several new products at once, so any reaction is easy to trace. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.

### Morning, night, or both?

Many people use it both morning and night, though starting once a day and building up is a reasonable way to test your skin's response. If your skin reacts in a way that feels off, stop use and give your skin a few days to settle before trying it again.
