Acetyl Glucosamine
The Acetyl Glucosamine is a derivative of a sugar naturally present in the body. It is used in skincare products aimed at improving the appearance of skin tone evenness and radiance.
Vitamin Complex
The formula contains several vitamins, notably:

- Vitamin A in the form of Retinol
- Vitamin E in the form of Tocopherol
- Vitamin B5 in the form of Panthenol
Medicube presents this combination as a Triple Vita Complex, complemented by vitamin C.
Sea buckthorn water
The Hippophae Rhamnoides Water, derived from sea buckthorn, is rich in antioxidant compounds and helps maintain skin hydration and comfort.

The panthenol, or provitamin B5, helps maintain hydration and skin comfort.
Allantoin
Allantoin helps soothe the skin and maintain a feeling of comfort.
