SOME BY MI Yuja Niacin Anti Blemish Care Serum 50ml
A Multi-Active Brightening Serum with 82.37% Yuja Extract, 5% Niacinamide, Arbutin & Glutathione
A lightweight brightening serum designed for dark spots, post-blemish marks, dullness and uneven-looking skin tone.
The formula is built around a notably high 82.37% Korean yuja (Citrus junos) fruit extract together with 5% niacinamide, supported by arbutin, glutathione, sodium ascorbyl phosphate, licorice root extract and a broad vitamin complex.
It provides a multi-pathway approach to pigmentation while maintaining a lightweight, non-sticky serum texture.
Why We Chose It
We chose SOME BY MI Yuja Niacin Anti Blemish Care Serum because its formula has a clearly defined brightening foundation: 82.37% yuja extract + 5% niacinamide.
Rather than relying on those ingredients alone, it adds arbutin, glutathione and a stable vitamin C derivative, giving practitioners several complementary approaches to uneven tone within a single serum.
That makes it particularly useful for someone who wants a comprehensive brightening treatment without purchasing separate niacinamide, arbutin and vitamin C serums. It also gives the Glass Ritual Pigmentation Collection a lighter treatment option for practitioners who dislike heavy or sticky serum textures.

Who It's For
Consider this serum if you are concerned about:
- Dark spots
- Post-blemish pigmentation
- Uneven-looking skin tone
- Dullness
- Loss of radiance
- Wanting a multi-active brightening serum
- Wanting 5% niacinamide within the treatment step
- Preferring lightweight serum textures

The formula contains yuja peel oil and peppermint extract, so practitioners with highly sensitive or fragrance-reactive skin should take this into consideration.
How to Use
After cleansing and toning, apply an appropriate amount evenly over the face. Gently pat until absorbed. Follow with moisturiser.
If you are new to active brightening products, introduce the serum gradually and observe how your skin responds.
During daytime, appropriate sun protection is particularly important when managing pigmentation.
Ritual Position
Cleanse → Tone → Treat with Yuja Niacin Anti Blemish Care Serum → Moisturise
Use during the treatment stage of your Glass Ritual.
Glass Ritual Pairing
SOME BY MI also offers the Yuja Niacin Anti Blemish Care Cream and Yuja Niacin Serum Mask. Using all three is optional.
This serum already provides 5% niacinamide + arbutin + glutathione + vitamin C derivative, so it can function as the primary brightening treatment within a simple routine:
Gentle Cleanser → Toner → Yuja Niacin Serum → Supportive Moisturiser
If you choose the matching Yuja Niacin Cream, remember that it also contains 5% niacinamide and several overlapping brightening ingredients. That combination may suit some practitioners, but completing the entire range is not necessary to build a purposeful pigmentation routine.
Glass Ritual Principle: Count what your entire ritual is doing—not how many brightening products you own.

Safety & Ingredient Information
For external use only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and discontinue use if persistent irritation occurs.
The formula contains Citrus Junos Peel Oil (1,500 ppm) and peppermint extract. Patch testing is particularly appropriate for sensitive or fragrance-reactive skin.
Ingredient lists and formulations may be updated by the manufacturer. Always check the ingredient list printed on the product packaging before use if you have known allergies or sensitivities.
The manufacturer’s original description uses terms such as “whitening” and “prevents the forming of melanin.” Glass Ritual does not use these as promises of individual results. We position the product as cosmetic care intended to help improve the appearance of dark spots, dullness and uneven skin tone.
Glass Ritual does not promise that a cosmetic serum will remove pigmentation or blemishes. Individual responses vary, and persistent, changing or unexplained pigmentation should be assessed by an appropriate healthcare professional.
