[Goodal] Green Tangerine VitaC Dark Spot Care Serum 40ml
Product Overview
A brightening serum designed to support dark spots, post-blemish marks, dullness and uneven-looking skin tone while maintaining a gentler approach than many high-strength pure vitamin C formulas.
The serum is built around green tangerine extract, complemented by niacinamide and a stable vitamin C derivative (3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid). Additional ingredients including arbutin, Centella asiatica, panthenol, sodium hyaluronate and tocopherol provide further tone, hydration and skin-supportive care.
Within the Glass Ritual Pigmentation Collection, this is a targeted pigmentation serum, particularly appropriate for practitioners wanting vitamin C-based brightening without immediately beginning with a high-concentration pure ascorbic acid serum.
Why We Chose It
We chose the GOODAL Green Tangerine Vita C Dark Spot Care Serum because not every practitioner needs to start pigmentation care with the strongest vitamin C available.
The formula combines several complementary approaches:
Vitamin C derivative → Niacinamide → Arbutin → Antioxidant botanical support
This gives the serum a meaningful role for uneven-looking tone and visible dark spots, while ingredients such as Centella, panthenol and sodium hyaluronate provide supportive hydration and soothing care.
It also creates a useful distinction within the Glass Ritual collection from a product such as COSRX Vitamin C 23, which uses a much higher concentration of pure ascorbic acid.

How to Use
After cleansing and toning, apply an appropriate amount evenly over the face.
Gently pat until fully absorbed.
Follow with moisturiser.
It can be incorporated into a morning or evening routine according to skin tolerance.
When used during the day, sun protection is particularly important as part of responsible pigmentation care.
Ritual Position
Cleanse → Tone → GOODAL Green Tangerine Vita C Dark Spot Care Serum → Moisturise
This occupies the targeted treatment-serum stage of the Glass Ritual.
Glass Ritual Pairing
This serum should be chosen according to the practitioner's needs rather than automatically combined with every other pigmentation serum.
For example:
Gentle Cleanser → Hydrating Toner → GOODAL Green Tangerine Serum → Barrier-Supportive Moisturiser
Practitioners generally do not need to layer it in the same routine with multiple other concentrated vitamin C or exfoliating treatments simply because all of them target pigmentation.
Within the collection, there is also an important distinction:
GOODAL Green Tangerine Serum
A more approachable vitamin C-based option for dark spots, dullness and uneven tone.
COSRX Vitamin C 23 Serum
A 23% pure ascorbic acid treatment better suited to practitioners intentionally seeking a considerably stronger vitamin C formula.
Glass Ritual Principle: The best treatment isn't automatically the strongest one. It is the one that fits the skin, the concern and the ritual.

Safety & Ingredient Information
For external use only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and discontinue use if persistent irritation occurs.
The formula contains bergamot-derived aromatic ingredients, so practitioners with highly reactive skin or known sensitivities to aromatic botanical ingredients should introduce the product cautiously and consider patch testing.
If using several pigmentation products, introduce treatments one at a time to allow the skin to adjust and to identify how each product is tolerated.
Ingredient formulations can change over time. Always check the ingredient list printed on the specific product packaging you receive if you have known allergies or sensitivities.
Glass Ritual does not promise that this cosmetic serum will remove dark spots or pigmentation. It may help improve the appearance of dark spots, post-blemish marks, dullness and uneven-looking skin tone, but individual responses vary.
