Eventone C Cream: Ingredients, Price in Pakistan, How to Use and Side Effects

Eventone C is one of the most searched skin creams in Pakistan, usually by people trying to fade dark spots (daag dhabbe) or get a brighter, more even complexion. It is sold everywhere from pharmacy chains to Daraz, at prices that range from a few hundred rupees to over Rs 3,000. Here's what is actually in the tube, what it can realistically do, and how to make sure you're buying the real thing.

What is Eventone C cream?

Eventone C is a brightening cream made by Pharma Health, a Pakistani skincare company. It comes in a 30g tube and is sold as a cosmetic, not a medicine: D.Watson lists it as not needing a prescription. The maker describes it as a "skin glowing" and whitening cream that "combines powerful whitening ingredients with antioxidants in a liposomal form".

What matters more than the marketing is the ingredient list, because Pakistan's market is full of "whitening" creams with hidden steroids and mercury. Eventone C's label lists neither.

What's in Eventone C cream?

These are the key ingredients Pharma Health lists on its product page (checked 8 November 2026):

• L-glutathione, an antioxidant. It is the headline ingredient, but evidence that glutathione brightens skin when applied as a cream is limited. Our glutathione guide covers what the research does and doesn't show.
• Sodium ascorbyl phosphate, a stable form of vitamin C. It is gentler than pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and has reasonable evidence for brightening and for acne marks.
• Phyllanthus emblica (amla) fruit extract, a plant source of vitamin C and antioxidants.
• Niacinamide (vitamin B3), one of the best-studied ingredients for uneven tone, marks and oil.
• Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice) leaf extract, a soothing brightener.
• Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate (octinoxate), a UV filter. The cream has no stated SPF, so it is not a sunscreen.
• Allantoin and tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E), to soothe and moisturise.

The base includes propylene glycol, glycerin, alcohol denat and methylparaben.

What's missing

Pharma Health doesn't publish the percentage of any ingredient. That makes it impossible to compare Eventone C with a serum that says "niacinamide 10%" or "vitamin C 15%". The ingredients are sensible; how much of each you're getting is unknown.

What does Eventone C actually do?

Realistically, Eventone C can help with:

• Dullness: skin looks brighter and more even within a few weeks.
• Mild post-acne marks and small dark spots, gradually over 8 to 12 weeks.
• Uneven tone from sun exposure, if you also protect from the sun.

It will not:

• Change your natural skin colour. No safe cream can.
• Clear melasma on its own. Melasma needs a dermatologist and usually prescription treatment; see our melasma cream guide.
• Treat active acne.

How to use Eventone C cream

Pharma Health's directions, plus the basics that make any brightening cream work:

1. At night, wash your face with a gentle face wash and pat it dry.
2. Apply a thin layer to the areas you want to treat, or the whole face, avoiding the eyes, nose and mouth.
3. Massage gently until it is absorbed. Follow with a plain moisturiser if your skin feels dry.
4. Every morning, wear sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher). Without it, sun exposure darkens marks faster than any cream can lighten them. Our sunblock guide lists options at every price.
5. Patch test first: apply a little behind your ear or on your jaw for two or three nights before using it on your whole face.

Can I use Eventone C with other products?

Yes, with a little care. Because it already contains niacinamide and vitamin C, you don't need a separate niacinamide or vitamin C serum on the same night. Don't layer it with strong exfoliating acids or retinoids until you know how your skin reacts; alternate nights instead.

Side effects of Eventone C cream

Most people tolerate it well. Possible reactions:

• Mild stinging or redness for the first few uses, especially on dry or sensitive skin. The alcohol and propylene glycol in the base can sting broken skin.
• Small bumps or breakouts in some acne-prone skin.
• Allergic reaction: itching, swelling or a rash that gets worse. Stop using it.

If you notice thin, shiny or very red skin, new hair growth or rapid lightening, the cream you have is probably not genuine. Those are signs of a steroid, which Eventone C's real formula doesn't contain.

Eventone C cream price in Pakistan, and how to avoid fakes

The genuine product is a 30g tube with a retail price of Rs 2,450. On Daraz, we found many listings described as "Eventone C 50ml" for Rs 240 to Rs 999. Pharma Health doesn't sell a 50ml size, and no pharmacy sells the 30g tube anywhere near that price. Treat those as fake or relabelled.

To buy safely:

• Buy from Pharma Health's own shop or a pharmacy chain (D.Watson, Dvago, Healthwire, Naheed).
• Check the size says 30g, the box names Pharma Health, and there is a batch number and expiry date.
• Be wary of anything far cheaper than about Rs 2,300.

Is it worth Rs 2,450?

For a cream with undisclosed strengths, it is on the expensive side. If you mainly want to fade marks, a serum with a stated strength of niacinamide or vitamin C, used with sunscreen, often costs less and is easier to judge. See our niacinamide serum guide and vitamin C serum guide. If you prefer a single cream and like how Eventone C feels, it is a reasonable, low-risk choice.

Eventone C vs "whitening" creams with hidden steroids

Many creams sold in Pakistan for quick whitening contain a strong steroid (often clobetasol) or hydroquinone, sometimes mercury. They work fast, then cause thin skin, redness, acne and rebound darkening. Eventone C's listed ingredients are a much safer kind of brightening: slower, but they don't damage the skin. Our whitening cream guide explains how to read a label for these ingredients.
