Formulation Deep Dive
Beauty of Joseon’s Glow Deep Serum Rice + Alpha-Arbutin is formulated as a high-performance brightening serum designed to target hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone. The carrier system utilizes a high concentration of Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Water as a traditional botanical base, supplemented with Glycerin for humectancy and a lightweight, aqueous texture. The active performance is driven by a synergistic blend of 2% Alpha-Arbutin and Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) to inhibit melanin production and improve skin clarity, while Sodium Hyaluronate and Panthenol (Vitamin B5) provide deep hydration and barrier support. The formulation is stabilized through a streamlined aqueous system to ensure the efficacy of the water-soluble actives while maintaining a clean-label profile for optimal skin compatibility.
