Description
The Medicube TXA Niacinamide Capsule Cream is an innovative Korean skincare product specifically formulated to target uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, and dullness, leading to a visibly clearer and more radiant complexion. It employs a unique dual-texture system, combining a transparent gel with suspended capsules containing key active ingredients.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Dual-Texture System: Similar to other Medicube capsule creams, this product features a unique “red gel” base and “pink capsules.” This allows users to customize the blend ratio, mixing more gel for a lighter feel or more capsules for concentrated brightening and hydration, depending on their skin’s daily needs. The capsules dissolve upon application, releasing the active ingredients.
- Targeted Pigmentation Correction:
- Tranexamic Acid (TXA) (often 99% pure in capsules): This is a powerful ingredient known for its ability to reduce the appearance of dark spots, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) from acne scars, and sun spots. It works by inhibiting melanin synthesis.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) (often 5% concentration): A multi-functional ingredient that significantly improves skin tone, reduces the appearance of hyperpigmentation, minimizes pores, strengthens the skin barrier, and enhances overall skin radiance and elasticity.
- Alpha-Arbutin: Another well-regarded skin-brightening agent that helps to inhibit melanin production, further contributing to an even and lighter skin tone.
- Glutathione: A potent antioxidant and tripeptide that aids in brightening the complexion and improving skin clarity by interrupting the enzyme pathway that triggers hyperpigmentation.
- Deep Hydration and Barrier Support:
- Ceramide NP: Crucial lipids that help to restore and strengthen the skin’s natural barrier, preventing moisture loss and protecting against environmental aggressors.
- Hyaluronic Acid: Provides intense and long-lasting hydration, plumping the skin and improving suppleness.
- Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): Offers soothing and moisturizing benefits, reducing potential irritation and promoting skin healing.
- Antioxidant Protection: Includes ingredients like 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (a stable Vitamin C derivative) and Ferulic Acid, which combat oxidative stress and protect the skin from free radical damage, supporting overall skin health and luminosity.
- Soothing Properties: Ingredients such as Bisabolol and Okra Fruit Extract are often included to calm and comfort the skin, minimizing potential irritation.
- Clinically Proven Results: Medicube highlights clinical studies showing improvements in skin radiance, hydration, and more balanced skin tone after single use and sustained improvement over weeks.
- Suitable for Various Skin Types: Formulated to be gentle, non-comedogenic, and low-irritation (often with a 0.00% irritation index in clinical tests), making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin.
How to Use :
- At the final step of your skincare routine (after cleansing, toning, and serum), use the provided spatula to scoop out a desired amount of the red gel and 1-3 pink capsules onto the back of your hand.
- Mix the capsules with the gel until they are completely dissolved, creating a blended cream. You can adjust the ratio of capsule to gel based on your skin’s hydration and brightening needs.
- Apply the mixture evenly over your face and neck.
- Gently pat to promote absorption.
