The SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule interrupts both ends, holding a stabilised Vitamin C derivative inside visible capsules and carrying Niacinamide through a Madagascar Centella base. SKIN1004 has built everything it makes in Seoul since 2013 on that Centella, which is what keeps a formula this active comfortable on skin that reacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapsules keep the Vitamin C intact until the moment of use:\u003c\/strong\u003e The floating capsules seal the Vitamin C derivative away from air and light, and they break only when the ampoule is worked into the skin. The last dose from the bottle is as potent as the first.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVitamin C shuts down tyrosinase, Niacinamide blocks the handover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tyrosinase is the enzyme that manufactures melanin, and the stabilised Vitamin C derivative inhibits it, while Niacinamide stops the pigment that does get made from being transferred into surface skin cells. Existing dark spots lose definition and new ones have fewer routes to the surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBehind both actives sits the Centella that makes them wearable:\u003c\/strong\u003e Madecassoside and the other Madagascar Centella compounds calm the inflammation that drives pigment production in the first place, which is most of the story behind the marks left after breakouts. It is also the reason reactive skin stays on a brightening ampoule long enough to see the tone change.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTexture \u0026amp; Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe capsules are visible in the bottle and break down under your fingers as the ampoule is worked in, so nothing of them is left sitting on the skin. Beyond that it layers like any other ampoule, at the serum step and under everything that follows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkin types:\u003c\/strong\u003e All skin types, including sensitive, reactive, oily, combination, dry and mature skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkin concerns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark spots, marks left behind after breakouts, sun damage, uneven skin tone, and dullness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest used by:\u003c\/strong\u003e If you have abandoned a Vitamin C serum once already because it turned brown in the bottle or stung on application, this is the format built around both of those problems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does a capsule ampoule compare to a standard Vitamin C serum?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: A conventional Vitamin C serum begins oxidising the moment air and light reach it, and its potency falls across the life of the bottle. In the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule the derivative stays sealed inside the capsules until they are physically broken on the skin, so the dose you get on the final day is the dose you got on the first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Are the capsules just for show?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: No. They are the delivery system rather than decoration. The Vitamin C derivative sits inside them, protected from oxidation, and it is released when the capsules rupture during normal application, with no technique required to make that happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Where does this sit alongside my other actives?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: At the serum step, after cleansing and any toner or essence, before moisturiser, with sunscreen last in the morning. Because the Vitamin C and the Niacinamide are already coming at pigment from two directions in one bottle, there is no need to run a second brightening serum next to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe capsules are the part everyone notices first, and the Centella underneath is the part that decides whether you are still using the bottle in six weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sn-explore-more\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLayer this brightening ampoule alongside a Centella calming treatment from the \u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-au\/collections\/centella-asiatica\"\u003ecentella asiatica collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-au\/collections\/centella-asiatica\"\u003eCentella asiatica\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-au\/collections\/niacinamide\"\u003eNiacinamide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-au\/collections\/skin1004\"\u003eMore from SKIN1004\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"SKIN1004","offers":[{"title":"50 ml","offer_id":54547182027086,"sku":"S1004S01-AC50","price":27.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":54547182059854,"sku":"S1004S01-AC","price":32.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/5057\/0062\/files\/S1004S01-AC.png?v=1778671450","url":"https:\/\/skinnomid.com\/en-au\/products\/skin1004-madagascar-centella-tone-brightening-capsule-ampoule","provider":"Skin-Nomad","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
