Step by step instruction: Rohto Melano CC Vitamin C Essence 20ml

  • How to use Rohto Melano CC Vitamin C Essence 20ml

    1. Cleanse: Begin with a gentle cleanser to remove impurities. For best results, ensure your skin is thoroughly patted dry; Vitamin C can sometimes cause tingling if applied to damp skin.
    2. Tone: Apply your favorite hydrating toner or lotion. This balances the skin's pH and prepares the barrier for better absorption of the essence.
    3. Dispense: Open the tube and tilt it downward. Gently squeeze the precision nozzle to dispense 4–5 drops into the palm of your hand. The unique dropper design is intentional—it prevents oxidation by limiting air exposure.
    4. Apply: Dab the essence onto specific areas of concern (like dark spots or acne scars) or smooth it over your entire face.
    5. Press: Use your fingertips to gently pat and press the liquid into your skin until fully absorbed.
    6. Follow up: Wait about 1–2 minutes, then apply your moisturizer and eye cream.
    7. Protect: If using during the day, always finish with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, as Vitamin C and sun protection work together to prevent further pigmentation.

  • Integrating Rohto Melano CC Vitamin C Essence 20ml into Your Skincare Flow

    • Frequency: Can be used both morning and night. If you have sensitive skin, start with once-daily application in the evening.
    • Order of Operations: Apply after toner/essence but before heavy serums, oils, or moisturizers.
    • Active Pairings: Pairs beautifully with Vitamin E and Ferulic acid.
    • Conflicts: Avoid using in the same routine as high-strength AHAs, BHAs, or Retinol if your skin is prone to irritation; instead, alternate these actives (e.g., Vitamin C in the morning, Retinol at night).
    • Storage: While the airtight tube is designed to keep the formula stable, store it in a cool, dark place to maximize the shelf life of the L-ascorbic acid.

Certifications & Awards

A cult favorite across Asia, Melano CC consistently tops the @cosme Best Cosmetic Awards (Japan’s most prestigious beauty rankings) in the Serum/Essence category. It is a pharmaceutical-grade "quasi-drug" in Japan, meaning it contains active ingredients at effective concentrations regulated by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare to ensure its brightening efficacy.

Sustainability / Ethical Sourcing Information

Rohto Pharmaceutical, the parent company of Melano CC, has committed to reducing its environmental footprint through the "Rohto Environmental Vision 2050." They focus on reducing plastic waste by streamlining packaging and optimizing the "smart tube" design, which eliminates the need for bulky outer casings and secondary pumps. The company also prioritizes ethically sourced botanical extracts and adheres to strict Japanese manufacturing safety standards.

  • Scent: Features a refreshing, natural citrus aroma derived from its concentrated Vitamin C content. It is light and dissipates quickly after application, providing a "zingy" sensory start to your routine.
  • Texture: A unique, lightweight oil-like liquid. Despite the initial oily slip, it is a water-free formula designed for maximum stability.
  • Feel: It glides effortlessly over the skin and absorbs to a matte, non-greasy finish. It leaves the skin feeling smooth and "sealed" without the stickiness often associated with high-concentration Vitamin C serums.

    Most common questions about Rohto Melano CC Vitamin C Essence 20ml

    How long does it take to see results with Melano CC?
    Consistency is key. While the immediate effect is a slight brightening glow, visible fading of stubborn post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) or sunspots typically takes 4 to 8 weeks of daily use, aligning with the skin's natural regeneration cycle.

    Can I use this if I have active acne?
    Yes. In fact, Melano CC contains Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate (Licorice Root Extract) and Alpinia Katsumadai Seed Extract, which help soothe inflammation and reduce the redness associated with active breakouts, while the Vitamin C works to prevent the spot from turning into a dark scar.

    Why does the tube feel like it’s hard to squeeze?
    The tube is engineered with a proprietary "low-oxygen" nozzle. It is designed to release the product drop-by-drop to prevent air from entering the tube, which keeps the Vitamin C from oxidizing and turning brown. A firm, steady squeeze is all you need.

    Does this product need to be refrigerated?
    Unlike many Vitamin C serums that oxidize quickly, Melano CC is highly stable. While refrigeration isn't required, it won't hurt the product. The most important thing is to keep it away from direct sunlight and high heat.

    Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
    Because it uses a stable form of Vitamin C and includes anti-inflammatory ingredients, many people with sensitive skin find this more tolerable than high-percentage (20%+) L-ascorbic acid serums. However, we always recommend a patch test on the jawline first.
