This product is a serious investment in brightening! The Vitamin C is stabilized with gold to keep it potent and helps to correct blue and brown dark circles over time.

K-Beauty Secret Weapon! This uses retinal, which is a stronger, faster-acting form of retinol, but the addition of ginseng keeps it soothing. Great for firming!
