Is the new Melano CC Vitamin C Brightening Premium Essence better than the regular version?

A little while ago, I shared a brand of Vitamin C serum that I found terribly effective. It was so effective (and affordable) that I was quite loathe to share my little find with everyone. Sometimes, I’m selfish like that.

It was the Melano CC Vitamin C Brightening Essence, or also known as the Melano CC Intensive Anti-Spot essence.

Earlier this year, I was browsing a Japanese website, and stumbled on a new, upgraded version, and decided to buy it to try. All this, without understanding quite what it was, or how it was different. I can be a little impulsive like that 😀

Not very long after I received it, I received a tube from the brand locally, because, as luck would have it, the Melano CC Vitamin C Brightening Premium Essence (aka Melano CC Intensive Anti-Spot Premium Essence as it’s known in Japan) is available in Malaysia!

I’ve almost finished using 1 tube, and truth to tell, I was struggling to form an opinion on it.

I remember the fuss we all made over the Melano CC Anti-Spot Essence when I first wrote about it. It wasn’t available then, but became available locally not long after. As much as I’d like to take credit for that, I’m sure it wasn’t me who did it haha!

Since arriving on our shores, there have been more products added to the Melano CC brand, and I was offered the opportunity to try the Melano CC Vitamin C Brightening Gel.

Of course, I said yes 😛 I love anything with Vitamin C remember?

I love the Melano CC Intensive Anti-Spot Essence so much I almost did not want to tell you about it!

I’d been debating for a while whether to spill the beans on one of my favourite Vitamin C serums to date.

On the one hand, there are some things I’d like to keep to my self, hugging it to my chest with a sly smile, knowing it’s my little secret. On the other hand, I’m a damn blogger, prone to sharing LOL!

So, I guess I’ll tell you about the Melano CC Intensive Anti-Spot Essence aka Melano CC Vitamin C Essence after all.

Melano CC, from what I understand, is a Japanese brand under the Rohto-Mentholatum umbrella (the same one that houses Hada Labo). If I’m not mistaken, they only have one range, which focuses on the use of Vitamin C.

I remember someone telling me about it once, a few years ago. It wasn’t until I came upon it in a pharmacy that I decided to pick one up to try. Yes, Melano CC is found in pharmacies (or drugstores) in Japan and in some other countries ~~(but not yet Malaysia, unfortunately! So read on at your peril)~~ Apparently, that’s changed! 🙂
