SUNGBOON EDITOR Kojic Acid Niacinamide Brightening Ampoule is an intensive yet skin-friendly tone-correcting treatment designed to improve the appearance of dark spots, uneven pigmentation and overall skin clarity.
At the heart of the formula is a concentrated combination of Kojic Acid, Niacinamide and Turmeric. According to the brand, the brightening base contains a total of 76,000 ppm of key tone-correcting ingredients, including 9,000 ppm Kojic Acid, 50,000 ppm Niacinamide and 17,000 ppm Turmeric Complex.
Kojic Acid targets melanin formation and helps reduce the visible appearance of dark spots, post-acne marks and other areas of uneven pigmentation.
Niacinamide supports a clearer, more even-looking complexion while helping maintain the skin barrier and overall skin resilience.
Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Water provides antioxidant and soothing care, helping stressed or uneven-looking skin appear calmer and more balanced.
The formula also contains Gluconolactone, a PHA, which gently exfoliates the surface of the skin and helps remove accumulated dead skin cells. This can improve the appearance of roughness and support a clearer, smoother-looking complexion without relying on more aggressive exfoliation.
Its brightening system is further supported by Ascorbic Acid, Ascorbyl Glucoside and Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, providing multiple forms of Vitamin C, while Glutathione adds antioxidant support for a more radiant-looking complexion.
Hydrating and soothing ingredients including glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Panthenol and Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate help maintain comfort, while Adenosine adds additional care for visible fine lines.
A distinctive feature of the ampoule is its tone-correcting beads or golden threads, designed to dissolve as the product is applied and blend into the formula.
The brand describes the product as clinically tested and suitable for sensitive skin. However, because it combines Kojic Acid, PHA and several Vitamin C ingredients, highly reactive skin may benefit from introducing it gradually.
This ampoule can also be used beyond the face. It may be applied to areas of uneven body tone, including the underarms, elbows, knees or other areas affected by discoloration.
