The Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate is claimed to enhance the skin’s inherent multi-defensive power against signs of aging, environmental factors and daily stress. The skincare routine then continues with White Lucent Luminizing Infuser and White Lucent Multi Bright Night Cream to target discoloration problems, including signs of spots, dullness and irregular skin tone.
