Concentrate Night Serum: For Mature Skin That Needs Firmness


< This Week's Recommended Point >
Consistency is key for beautiful skin.――We all know that, but doing the same thing every day can get boring… For those with such selfish (laughs) desires, we recommend the C’BON Concentrate Night Serum (Pack), released on October 1, 2009. While it’s called a night serum, the parenthetical mention of ‘pack’ made me wonder, but it truly is a special item that functions as both a serum and a pack. Let’s harness its power as a ‘booster’ for its original purpose: addressing sagging skin!

Replenish with ample hydration to prevent cumulative damage from daytime UV exposure.


We want to do special care, but the extra steps feel like a hassle… While we think that, our regular routine can also start to slip. But wouldn’t it be possible if we could replace our regular care with special care, rather than adding to it? C’BON Concentrate Night Serum is an item that lets you get away with it, requiring only this after your toner. The secret lies in its blend of ingredients that aid skin regeneration at night and its thick, occlusive texture.

First, the ingredients include the highly moisturizing yeast extract, a common ingredient in the Concentrate series, hydroxyproline, a key component of collagen, evening primrose oil to enhance skin resilience, and centella asiatica extract, which is expected to improve wrinkles and prevent aging, all packed with ingredients that boost firmness. In addition to these, C’BON Concentrate Night Serum contains sodium polyglutamate to increase stratum corneum moisture and foeniculum vulgare fruit extract to inhibit photoaging. In other words, the goal is to replenish with ample hydration to prevent cumulative damage from daytime UV exposure and restore skin vitality during sleep.



What I Loved: The Occlusive Feel That Locks in Moisture


With such potent ingredients, we want to cover the skin snugly and keep it charged all night long. That’s why it has this unique ‘gooey’ texture. Normally, after toning, take three pumps, smooth over your entire face, and then apply an additional two pumps to areas of concern. But on the night before a special occasion, try taking double the amount—ten pumps—at once and apply it thickly to your face. The rich texture will make your face gleam, but it won’t feel sticky, and you can just go to sleep. It feels like the various ingredients are working diligently while you sleep, and your face will feel smooth when you wash it in the morning! Above all, what I loved was the occlusive feel. It locks in moisture and seems to gently tighten the skin's surface, a unique sensation unlike any other. After all, it’s special care, so I think we can enjoy this level of luxury!


A word from my hometown, Tosa!
“Truly, I’ve never felt anything this rich before. Ten pumps might seem wasteful, but thinking of how smooth my skin will be tomorrow morning, I can’t resist. It seems to give firmness too, so why not give it a try?”
