Numbuzin No.5 Glutathione TXA Advanced Dark Spot Ampoule Concentrate
A two-week course, not a daily serum. Pure glutathione powder sits sealed in the yellow cap until you're ready to start — glutathione degrades fast in air and light, so keeping it separate means you get full-strength active from day one rather than whatever survived the shelf.
Tranexamic acid and niacinamide work on dark spots alongside it, on a base of sea buckthorn water rather than plain water. Fragrance-free and skin irritation tested. 10g.
- Press-and-Mix Cap — 100% pure glutathione powder stays sealed until activation. This is the whole design: glutathione breaks down quickly once exposed, so it's kept out of the formula until the moment you commit to the course.
- Glutathione — one of the strongest brightening antioxidants available, at full potency from the first application.
- Tranexamic Acid — the second ingredient in the ampoule, and the one that works on stubborn spots and sun damage that haven't responded to anything else.
- Niacinamide — a third brightening route, evening overall tone alongside the targeted work.
- Sea Buckthorn Water Base — replaces plain water, bringing natural vitamin C, vitamin E, and omega-7 into every drop.
- Ascorbic Acid — pure vitamin C for direct brightening and antioxidant protection.
- CoQ10 + Thioctic Acid + Vitamin E — three antioxidants that also help keep the actives stable through the two weeks.
- Bisabolol + Panthenol — calm and hydrate, so a concentrated course stays comfortable on daily use.
- Targeted, Not All-Over — apply to specific spots rather than your whole face. This is a treatment, not a moisturizer step.
⚠️ This ampoule has a noticeable sulfur-like smell from the glutathione. That's normal and expected, and it fades after application.

First use: press the yellow cap to release the glutathione powder, then turn the bottle upside down and shake well to mix. After toner, apply 2–3 drops directly to dark spots. Pat gently until absorbed. Follow with moisturizer, and sunscreen in the morning. Use within two weeks of activating — once mixed, the glutathione starts to degrade.
