Description

Transino Whitening Repair Cream EX 35g is a quasi-drug medicated overnight gel-cream for dry and mature skin with melasma, age spots, and UV-induced dullness — the final step in the Transino brightening routine, applying Tranexamic Acid and anti-inflammatory actives in a bouncy gel-cream texture that provides sustained active contact with skin through the night during the skin cell repair cycle.

  • Tranexamic Acid — quasi-drug certified active blocking melanin production at the prostaglandin level
  • Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate — anti-inflammatory active that addresses secondary pigmentation triggered by UV and environmental inflammation
  • Coix Seed Extract — brightening botanical traditionally used in Japanese skincare for skin clarity
  • Ceramide, Squalane, and Collagen — moisture-retaining ingredients that support overnight barrier repair
  • Bouncy gel-cream texture — absorbs without stickiness, appropriate for the final evening skincare step
  • 35g — approximately 3–4 months of daily single-evening use; a small amount covers the full face

How it works: Overnight application extends TXA's contact time with the skin during the period when cell turnover is most active — between 10pm and 2am according to dermatological circadian research. The gel-cream occlusive base prevents active evaporation and maintains the TXA and anti-inflammatory ingredients in contact with the stratum corneum through this high-turnover period, making the overnight step the most efficient window for brightening treatment within a 24-hour routine.

Transino Cream EX position in the routine: Apply as the absolute final evening step after all toner, serum, and emulsion layers have fully absorbed. The EX designation indicates the current formula generation. For maximum benefit from the Transino routine, use all four steps — Lotion, Melano Signal Essence, Brightening Milk, and this Cream EX — consistently for a minimum of 4–8 weeks before assessing results, as TXA's pigmentation suppression effect accumulates over weeks rather than showing overnight change.

Known in Japan as トランシーノ 薬用ホワイトニングリペアクリームEX 35g.

Key Ingredients

  • Tranexamic Acid — quasi-drug active whitening ingredient; blocks prostaglandins that trigger melanin production to prevent and treat dark spots and freckles
  • Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate — anti-inflammatory active; calms UV and environmental damage on the skin surface, preventing rough skin and secondary pigmentation
  • Stratum Corneum Refinement Ingredient EX — complex of trehalose sulfate sodium and polymethacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine solution that improves moisture and texture for visible brightness
  • Transparency Support Ingredient EX — complex targeting skin transparency by focusing on the release of melanin already deposited in cells, improving overall skin clarity
  • Aging Care Ingredient (Geranium Globulus Extract) — age-appropriate moisturising botanical that supports skin resilience and addresses the yellowing that develops with prolonged UV exposure

HOW TO USE

  1. Complete your full evening routine: cleanse, toner, serum, emulsion.
  2. Take a large pearl-grain amount of cream on fingertips.
  3. Press gently across the entire face, warming the gel against skin.
  4. Apply a slightly thicker layer on areas with visible pigmentation.
  5. Leave overnight — no need to rinse.
  6. Pro tip: Apply morning and evening in the summer months for maximum protection against ongoing UV damage — follow with SPF in the morning.

FAQ

Do I use this only at night?

It is designed primarily as a nighttime cream and is described by Daiichi Sankyo as a cream you put on like a mask before sleep. It can also be used in the morning as the final moisturising step before SPF — Transino recommends morning and evening application in high-UV periods for maximum effect.

Where does this sit in the Transino routine?

This is the final step. The recommended Transino routine is: Clear Lotion (toner) → Melano Signal Essence (serum) → Clear Milk (emulsion) → Repair Cream EX (cream). Each step builds on the previous and all contain tranexamic acid, creating a layered TXA approach.

Is the texture suitable for oily skin?

The gel-cream texture is lighter than a traditional cream and absorbs without greasiness. Those with oily skin may prefer to use only the Melano Signal Essence and omit this step in humid or summer months — the essential active is already present in the serum.

Repair Cream EX vs Hada Labo Gokujyun Cream — which is better for dark spots?

These products serve different purposes. Hada Labo cream focuses on deep hyaluronic acid hydration with no brightening actives. Transino Repair Cream EX delivers government-regulated tranexamic acid in a cream base, making it a medicated treatment with moisturising benefits — not simply a moisturiser. Choose based on whether your primary concern is hydration or active spot treatment.

Is this the Japan-domestic version?

Yes. This is the Japan-domestic quasi-drug formula (医薬部外品) sourced from Matsumotokiyoshi and major Tokyo pharmacies. TokyoShelf does not carry export-version or grey-market stock — every unit is the domestic Japanese formula.
