Skinfood Yuja C Dark Spot Clear Essence

The Yuja C Dark Spot Clear Essence from Skinfood combines the extract of the yuja - a citrus fruit also known as yuzu - with a stabilized vitamin C derivative. The result is a powerful formula that specifically combats pimples and blackheads to even out the complexion.

What is Yuja?
Yuja, also called yuzu in Japan, is a citrus fruit grown in Asia. It is the size of a tangerine and is yellow-orange when ripe. Like a lemon or lime, the yuja fruit is highly prized for its fragrant peel, essential oil, seeds and juice. The juice of a yuja is particularly sour and forms the basis of yujacha, a lemon tea that Koreans swear by as a cold and flu remedy.

Yuja is also loved in skin care. Yuja has three times more vitamin C than lemon. Vitamin C is essential for the body's production of collagen, an important component of healthy skin, hair and nails. As a powerful antioxidant, vitamin C also reduces free radical damage and strengthens the body's immune system. Yuja essential oils have a strong scent that soothes and moisturizes rough skin and relaxes the body and mind.

Skinfoods Yujas are grown with organic fertilizers made from sea water and organic compounds and do not contain pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Healthy skin starts with a healthy diet!

Vitamin C derivatives and plant-based whitening ingredients from licorice roots prevent pigment spots that have already formed from becoming embedded in the skin. Niacinamide takes intensive care of deep spots and ensures that the melanin on them is broken down again.
