FAQs
Q1. What skin concerns does Glutone Serum target?
A1. Glutone Serum addresses uneven skin tone, dullness, dark spots, and early signs of ageing. The Melazero complex suppresses melanin overproduction at the source, X50 Purewhite acts on existing pigmentation, and Lemon Peel Extract delivers natural Vitamin C antioxidants — making it especially useful for PIH-prone skin types common in South Asian skin tones.
Q2. How does Melazero differ from a standard Vitamin C brightener?
A2. Melazero acts upstream in the melanin synthesis pathway, reducing the signal that triggers excess pigmentation before colour is deposited in the skin. Standard Vitamin C inhibits tyrosinase once production has already started. Glutone Serum combines both approaches — upstream inhibition via Melazero plus antioxidant protection from Lemon Peel Extract — for a broader brightening effect than either alone.
Q3. Can I use Glutone Serum with niacinamide or retinol?
A3. Yes. Apply Glutone Serum first on clean, dry skin, allow it to absorb, then layer niacinamide (which pairs synergistically for brightening) or apply retinol at night as a separate step. If you are new to actives, introduce one product at a time over two to three weeks to ensure your skin tolerates the combination.
Q4. Does Glutone Serum contain SPF — do I still need sunscreen?
A4. Glutone Serum contains no UV filters. Because Melazero and Vitamin C actively slow melanin production, unprotected sun exposure will partially counteract their effect and can worsen dark spots. Daily broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher is essential alongside this serum, particularly on Indian skin that is genetically predisposed to PIH.
Q5. How quickly will I see results, and is it safe for daily use?
A5. Most users notice a visible improvement in radiance and tone evenness within four to six weeks of twice-daily use. Glutone Serum is paraben-free, silicone-free, and mineral-oil-free, making it comfortable for daily AM and PM application. Very reactive skin types should start with once-daily use and build up over two weeks.
