8.5/10 · serumC 20 Serum Clareador Anti-Melasma
Ada Tina's C 20 Serum is the Italian-Brazilian vitamin C treatment specifically formulated for melasma — the pigmentation condition that affects roughly 30% of Brazilian women and is notoriously difficult to treat in high-UV equatorial climates. Sodium ascorbyl phosphate (SAP) at 20% provides potent brightening and melanin inhibition without the instability of L-ascorbic acid — critical in a country where bathroom temperatures regularly exceed 30°C. Carnosine, an amino acid dipeptide, provides additional anti-glycation and antioxidant support. Dual hyaluronic acid (regular + sodium hyaluronate) provides hydration at two molecular weights. Olive leaf extract adds polyphenol antioxidant defence. The 10-ingredient formula is remarkably clean — no fragrance, no colourants, no unnecessary additions. Ada Tina was founded by an Italian dermatologist in São Paulo, and the formulation philosophy is distinctly Italian-clinical: maximum active concentration, minimum filler.

8.5/10 · sunscreenBiosole OXY FPS 85 Protetor Solar Clareador
Ada Tina's Biosole OXY FPS 85 is the Brazilian sunscreen that treats while it protects — and it uses an SPF level that would make European regulators nervous. FPS 85 (the Brazilian equivalent of SPF) uses a modern organic UV filter system: Tinosorb S (bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine) for broad-spectrum photostability, avobenzone (butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane) for UVA I, DHHB for UVA II, and ethylhexyl triazone for UVB. On top of the sun protection, the formula includes niacinamide for brightening and pore refinement, plus sodium ascorbyl phosphate (stable vitamin C) for depigmentation support. The 'Clareador' designation means this is classified as a brightening sunscreen — designed for the Brazilian consumer who needs high-SPF protection AND active depigmentation in a single morning step. The dry-touch finish is essential for the Brazilian market where humidity makes greasy sunscreens unbearable.

8.4/10 · sunscreenBiosole Oxy FPS 50 Anti-Pollution Sunscreen
Ada Tina is an Italian-Brazilian hybrid brand — Italian dermatological R&D adapted for Brazilian sun conditions and skin types. Biosole Oxy combines broad-spectrum FPS 50 with a vitamin C + E + niacinamide antioxidant complex and anti-pollution shields. The 12-hour protection claim is backed by the brand's clinical testing under Brazilian tropical UV (which is more intense than European testing conditions). The texture is the differentiator: lightweight and non-greasy enough for daily use in São Paulo's humidity, with a subtle luminosity that means you don't need a separate primer. One of the rare sunscreens that's genuinely designed for tropical daily wear.

8.2/10 · tonerDepore Tonic
Ada Tina's pore-clearing toner — Italian thermal spring water + a triple-acid complex (salicylic acid, mandelic acid, glycolic acid) + zinc PCA for sebum regulation. The Italian-Brazilian hybrid heritage shows here: Italian thermal water expertise meeting Brazilian oily-skin formulation needs. The BHA/AHA/mandelic trio attacks pores from three angles — salicylic clears inside the pore, glycolic resurfaces the surface, and mandelic (the gentlest AHA) adds brightening without aggression. Alcohol-free, which is notable for a toner in this price range.
