Dr.Althea Vitamin C Boosting Serum 30ml

Dullness and uneven tone get a targeted response here, with Dr. Althea packing this serum with a high concentration of sea buckthorn (Hippophae Rhamnoides) water, long used in Korean skincare as a natural source of vitamin C.

Niacinamide and tranexamic acid work alongside it to target dark spots, while centella extract and multiple types of hyaluronic acid keep the formula from feeling harsh.
