Product overview

Description

Care:Nel Anti-Melasma Cica Intensive Serum (30ml) is a brightening serum from the South Korean brand Care:Nel, manufactured by Gaon Cosmetics Co. (Gwangmyeong-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea; Business Registration No. 201-16-85506), per the official brand site.

Sourcing note: this is a distinct sibling product to a different Care:Nel serum (a Niacinamide/Tranexamic Acid "TXA 5 Niacinamide 10 Dark Spot Glow Serum") researched separately in this catalog project -- Care:Nel sells multiple "Cica" melasma-line products (including this serum, a Cica Cream, and a Cica Treatment Toner), and this entry describes only this specific "Anti-Melasma Cica Intensive Serum." The full ingredient list below could not be found on the official brand site or on incidecoder.com; it was found only on skinsort.com, a single tier-2 ingredient-database source with no independent corroboration -- this should be treated with appropriate caution.
