Why HANA loves this product

Finally, a clarifying serum that’s truly gentle! We know the struggle: you want to clear up blemishes, but so many serums are harsh, tingling, or just too strong for sensitive skin. The Medicube Red Succinic Acid Serum is a dream come true for this exact problem. It’s a hypoallergenic formula that’s clinically proven to be safe for sensitive, acne-prone skin, and users confirm it has "no tingling or burning sensation at all".

It works by combining a smart blend of 5% Niacinamide to fade the appearance of old marks, 1% Succinic Acid to smooth texture, and gentle 0.2% Salicylic Acid to clear pores. But the real magic is the massive 3.2% dose of soothing Panthenol and Ceramide NP that support your skin barrier while the actives work. It’s the perfect way to get a clear, calm, and balanced complexion.

Star ingredients
  • Niacinamide (also known as Vitamin B3): A multi-tasking ingredient that helps to brighten and even out skin tone, refine the appearance of pores, and support a healthy skin barrier.
  • Panthenol (also known as Pro-vitamin B5): A fantastic humectant that draws moisture into the skin. It also has wonderful soothing and skin-conditioning abilities. The combination of moisturising and supporting the skin makes it great for skin that needs a little loving.
  • Salicylic Acid (also known as BHA - Beta Hydroxy Acid): An effective Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA), Salicylic Acid exfoliates both the skin's surface and within pores. It helps to dissolve excess sebum and dead skin cells, improving the appearance of blackheads and whiteheads over time for a smoother, clearer look.
  • Succinic Acid: A gentle exfoliant that helps to smooth rough skin texture.
  • Ceramide NP: A skin-identical lipid that is a vital component of the skin's natural moisture barrier. It works by reinforcing the skin's surface, helping to lock in moisture and protect against dryness for a comfortable, resilient-feeling complexion.
