The biggest benefit of Melano CC products is effects driven by vitamins, and all of the Melano CC products include pure vitamin C or vitamin C derivatives. Vitamin C is famous for helping fade pigmentation, inhibiting melanin production in skin, reducing redness and the appearance of existing wrinkles and promoting collagen production, and these effects result in even skin texture and clear skin. Also, inhibiting melanin production contributes to the prevention of spots and freckles.

In addition, vitamin E (or vitamin E derivatives) included in all the Melano CC products except for toner and premium type serum promotes good blood circulation, and it results in promoting skin turnover cycle and preventing spots and freckles.

Melano CC series has a complete skincare routine set: toner, facial cream, serum, and sheet mask. I guess the serum is most popular and there must be people who use the serum in combination with skincare products from other brands, but it would be more effective if you use the serum with the other Melano CC products as they include vitamin C, too.

<Normal>
Serums include activated vitamin C and vitamin E derivatives. Vitamin C prevents spots and freckles, and vitamin E improves blood circulation. In general, Vitamin C is unstable, but vitamin C in Melano CC is stable because of Rohto’s original technology, so vitamin C reaches the deep part of the stratum corneum. Also, a sterilizing ingredient and an anti-inflammatory agent prevent acne and other skin problems.

Toner includes vitamin C derivatives which prevent spots and freckles by inhibiting melanin production and an anti-inflammatory ingredient which prevents ances and other skin problems. Vitamin C derivatives soak into skin very well, and another ingredient included in it is effective in keeping your skin moisturized and improving acne scars.

There are 2 types of toners: normal type and rich and moist type. The difference is their texture, and the effects are the same.

Gel cream has the same effect as the serum (normal type): preventing spots and freckles by vitamin C, preventing acne and skin problems by a sterilizing ingredient and an anti-inflammatory agent, and improving blood circulation by vitamin E derivatives. The cream is not sticky since this is a gel type cream, but a moisturizing ingredient soaks into the deep part of the stratum corneum well. Though the cream is not rich and moist, this cream is enough to moisturize your skin.

The effect of this cream is the same as the serum (normal type) and gel cream described above. The texture is different from the gel cream, and this is richer compared to the gel cream. This cream which thoroughly moisturizes the stratum corneum would be a good choice if you have dry skin.
