C-50 Blemish Night Treatment

The INKEY List C-50 Blemish Night Treatment works the night shift against breakouts. It swaps in for your evening moisturiser and pairs a stable vitamin C derivative with salicylic acid, so blemishes are being treated — and new ones discouraged — while you sleep.

What it actually does

• Fights blemishes on two fronts. 5% STAY®-C 50 works to prevent breakouts and reduce how visible existing ones look, according to The INKEY List.
• Clears the way. 2% salicylic acid gently lifts off dead cells so they don't sit in pores and turn into the next breakout.
• Brightens as it treats. The stable vitamin C derivative visibly evens tone, and the brand says it encourages skin-cell renewal for quicker visible recovery from blemishes.
• Works with vitamin E in the formula, and suits normal, dry, combination and oily skin.
• Vegan, gluten-free and cruelty-free.

How to use

1. PM only, as your final step before sleep.
2. Replace your night moisturiser with it — do your usual routine, then use this instead of cream.
3. A thin layer over face and neck is all it needs.
4. Breakouts on your back or chest? It can be used there too.
5. Let it work overnight, then wash it off in the morning.

Questions

Do I still apply moisturiser at night?

Not on the nights you use this. The INKEY List's instruction is to keep your normal routine but use this treatment in place of the moisturiser step.

Can I use it on body breakouts?

Yes — the brand specifically mentions blemish-prone areas like the back and chest, not just the face.
