1. Can I use this with other active ingredients like retinol or AHA/BHA or Vitamin C?
Yes, but with caution. This product contains niacinamide, adenosine, and multiple forms of hyaluronic acid, which are generally compatible with other actives. However, if you have sensitive skin, avoid combining it with high concentrations of exfoliants (AHA/BHA) or vitamin C to prevent irritation. Retinol can be used, but monitor for dryness or sensitivity.

2. Is this suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?
Yes. The formula is lightweight, oil-free, and includes niacinamide (oil-regulating), glycerin (hydrating without clogging pores), and soothing ingredients (adenosine, allantoin). However, patch-test first if you're highly acne-prone, as some ingredients (like butylene glycol) may trigger breakouts in rare cases.

3. What’s the difference between this and a regular toner?
This is a dual-functional treatment (whitening + wrinkle improvement) with higher concentrations of active ingredients (niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants like astaxanthin and glutathione) compared to most toners. It likely has a more viscous, serum-like texture rather than a watery toner consistency.

4. Can I skip toner if I use this?
Yes, you can. This product provides hydration, brightening, and anti-aging benefits, so a separate toner may not be necessary unless you need additional exfoliation (AHA/BHA) or pH-balancing.

5. Are the capsules real and do they dissolve on the skin?
Yes! This product contains "Micro-Double Capsules" infused with vitamin C, niacinamide, and panthenol, designed to dissolve upon application. These tiny capsules enhance absorption, delivering brightening and hydrating actives deeper into the skin. When applied, they burst and blend seamlessly into the skin without residue.

6. Is it safe for pregnant & breastfeeding moms?
Most ingredients are safe, but avoid if sensitive to niacinamide or high antioxidant concentrations. However, consult a doctor before use, as some may prefer to avoid certain actives (like high-dose peptides or retinoids, though this product doesn’t contain retinol).

7. Can this be applied around the eyes and neck?
Yes, but avoid direct contact with eyes. The gentle formula suits the eye contour and neck, but if irritation occurs, rinse immediately.

8. Can this be applied both day and night?
Yes. It works well under sunscreen (AM) and with nighttime treatments (PM). For daytime, layer with SPF due to antioxidant ingredients (astaxanthin, vitamin C derivatives) that boost sun protection.

9. Can this be used without other skincare products?
Yes, it provides hydration, brightening, and anti-aging benefits alone. For best results, pair with moisturiser and sunscreen.

10. What is the texture and scent like?
Texture: A slightly viscous liquid with microcapsules that dissolve upon contact (no grit or residue).
Scent: Likely neutral or faintly fresh (no added fragrance, but some natural ingredients may have a mild scent).
