Read on 2026-10-01

What is this product?

AHC Black Caviar Lotion (140 ml) is an emulsion-type lotion sold on the brand's own online store and labeled on its detail image as a dual brightening and wrinkle-improvement functional cosmetic. Its printed list has 81 entries: water, glycerin, butylene glycol and niacinamide open it, a caviar extract sits at 11th as one of 19 consecutive extract entries, adenosine is 47th, a fragrance entry is 72nd and six fragrance-allergen-type names close the list. No amount is printed for any entry and no exfoliating acid name is printed.

What makes it different?

A caviar-extract lotion whose dual brightening and wrinkle-improvement label has no filing number or amount behind it on the page, with a long 81-entry list, a run of 19 consecutive extracts, a ceramide and cholesterol pair, an ethanol entry and a fragrance entry followed by six allergen-type names.
