Experience the brightening power of high-concentration Japanese skincare with the KisoCare VC 30 Serum No.34. This "Pure Essence" is a specialized intensive treatment designed for those who want the maximum benefits of Vitamin C without the common side effects of irritation or rapid oxidation. While standard Vitamin C serums often top out at 15–20% concentration, KisoCare utilizes a massive 30% concentration of a modern, non-ionic Vitamin C derivative, making it one of the most potent yet stable brightening agents available on the market today.
The scientific breakthrough of the No.34 serum is the use of Bis-Glyceryl Ascorbate (VC-DG). Unlike traditional L-ascorbic acid, which can be highly acidic and unstable, this derivative is non-ionic and pH-balanced. It is broken down by the skin's natural enzymes to release Vitamin C gradually, ensuring a long-lasting antioxidant effect that targets hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and dullness throughout the day. Because it is chemically linked to glycerin, it is a "Moisturizing Vitamin C" —it hydrates the skin as it treats, eliminating the "tight" or "stinging" sensation often felt with high-percentage serums.
Consistent with the KisoCare "Mindful Beauty" philosophy, this serum is enriched with a 7-part Certified Organic Botanical Complex, including Centella Asiatica (Cica), Licorice Root, and Rosemary. These extracts work together to soothe micro-inflammation and strengthen the skin barrier. Meticulously formulated to be 8-free, the serum contains no parabens, silicones, synthetic fragrances, or mineral oils. Housed in a 1 oz (30ml) dropper bottle, its lightweight, water-like consistency absorbs instantly, leaving a transparent finish that layers perfectly under sunscreen. With KisoCare No.34, you aren't just treating spots; you are utilizing advanced J-beauty biochemistry to achieve a firm, resilient, and brilliantly clear complexion.
30% High-Potency Vitamin C (VC-DG): Featuring one of the highest concentrations available, this non-ionic derivative delivers unparalleled brightening power. It effectively inhibits melanin production to fade dark spots and acne scars while promoting the collagen synthesis necessary for firm, youthful skin.
Moisturizing "Bis-Glyceryl" Tech: This modern derivative combines Vitamin C with glycerin, providing a unique hydrating effect. It is specifically recommended for dry or sensitive skin types who typically find traditional Vitamin C serums too drying or irritating.
7-Organic Soothing Blend: Infused with Cica, Chamomile, and Green Tea extracts, the serum provides an immediate calming effect. These botanical antioxidants work in tandem with the Vitamin C to neutralize free radicals from UV exposure and pollution.
High Stability & Low Oxidation: Unlike pure L-ascorbic acid, which turns brown and loses potency quickly, the No.34 formula is highly resistant to light and air. It maintains its clinical efficacy for a longer shelf life, ensuring every drop is as powerful as the first.
Pore-Refining & Texture Smoothing: By regulating sebum and supporting skin density, the serum helps to tighten the appearance of enlarged pores. It smooths out rough skin grain, resulting in a "Glass Skin" finish that looks polished and healthy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Kisocare VC 30 Serum No.34 contains a 30% stabilized Vitamin C formulation, a potent antioxidant that helps brighten skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and support collagen production. This concentration is clinically significant for visible results while being formulated to minimize irritation when used correctly.
While Vitamin C serums are generally well-tolerated, the 30% concentration in this formula is potent. If you have sensitive skin, we recommend starting with 2-3 applications per week and gradually increasing frequency. Always perform a patch test first. Discontinue use if redness or irritation persists beyond a few days.
Vitamin C works well with niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. However, avoid combining it with retinol in the same routine as this may increase irritation. If you use retinol, apply the Vitamin C serum in the morning and retinol at night, or space them out on alternate days.
