Frequently Asked Questions

Is Turmeric or Niacinamide better for fading acne scars?
Turmeric combined with Kojic Acid is generally more effective for fading dark acne scars due to its ability to inhibit melanin production. Niacinamide is excellent for reducing the redness and inflammation associated with active breakouts and early-stage scarring.
Can I layer the Collagen Jelly Cream with Niacinamide under a wrapping mask?
Yes, layering these products is a common K-beauty technique to lock in moisture and double the brightening effects. Apply the Collagen Jelly Cream with Niacinamide first as your moisturizer; then seal everything in with a wrapping mask to ensure maximum penetration of the active ingredients.
How often should I use the Kojic Acid Tumeric Night Wrapping Mask?
Begin by using this intensive treatment two to three times per week to allow your skin to adjust to the kojic acid. Once your skin builds tolerance, you can increase usage to every other night to accelerate the removal of dark spots and uneven patches.
