FAQ:
Q: Can I use APLB Kojic Acid Vitamin C Facial Cream every day?
A: Yes, it’s formulated for daily use. If your skin is sensitive or new to brightening actives, start once a day (preferably at night), then build up to twice daily as tolerated.
Q: Is this cream suitable for sensitive skin?
A: The formula is fragrance-free and designed with gentle, soothing ingredients like Centella and Beta-Glucan. However, because it contains kojic acid and Vitamin C, patch testing is recommended for very reactive skin.
Q: Do I need sunscreen with this brightening cream?
A: Absolutely. Kojic acid and Vitamin C work best when paired with daily broad-spectrum SPF, which helps prevent new dark spots and protects your brightening results.
Q: Can I use it together with retinol or exfoliating acids?
A: To avoid over-sensitising the skin, it’s often best to alternate nights or keep other actives mild. If you combine them, watch carefully for signs of irritation and adjust frequency as needed.
Q: Where does this fit in my K-beauty routine?
A: Use it as your moisturiser step, after toner and serums. It pairs well with hydrating and barrier-repair products in a Korean cosmetics routine focused on anti-age and brightening.
