Medicube Kojic Acid Tumeric Vita Capsule Cream
Five brightening actives in one cream, each working on pigment a different way. Niacinamide sits at 5%, with kojic acid, alpha-arbutin, turmeric, and two forms of vitamin C alongside it — which is why this reaches marks a single-active cream leaves behind.
The retinol is encapsulated, so it stays stable in the jar and releases when you apply it. Underneath, 8 types of hyaluronic acid and ceramide NP keep the barrier intact while all of that works. Light gel-cream texture that absorbs without heaviness. Fragrance-free. 53g.
⚠️ Contains Retinol. Do not use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Use at night only. Follow with SPF the next morning.
- 5% Niacinamide — a high concentration that fades dark spots, refines pores, controls oil, and strengthens the barrier at the same time.
- Kojic Acid — works on pigment through a different route than niacinamide, fading existing spots and slowing new ones.
- Alpha-Arbutin — a third brightening pathway, stable and gentle enough not to add irritation.
- Turmeric Root Extract — antioxidant and calming, working on the dullness that comes from sun exposure and daily stress.
- Two Forms of Vitamin C — pure ascorbic acid for immediate brightening, 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid for stability.
- Ferulic Acid — keeps the vitamin C working longer and adds its own antioxidant protection.
- Encapsulated Retinol — held in capsules that release on application, so it doesn't degrade sitting in the jar. Works on texture and fine lines overnight.
- Eight Types of Hyaluronic Acid — hydration at eight depths, which is what stops five brightening actives leaving skin tight.
- Ceramide NP — replaces the barrier lipids that brightening actives deplete.
- Three Peptides — copper tripeptide-1, acetyl hexapeptide-8, and palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, supporting firmness and fine lines.
- Caffeine + Adenosine — caffeine works on puffiness, adenosine on fine lines. Adenosine is Korea's approved wrinkle-improvement active.
