Formulated with 0.15% pure retinol, it is an ideal, well-balanced choice for retinol beginners, offering high efficacy in stimulating collagen production while minimizing the risk of skin irritation. It effectively reduces fine lines, smooths rough skin texture, and evens out skin tone.

Benefits and Features:

Contains 0.15% retinol—an ideal, effective concentration for beginners to stimulate cell renewal without causing severe skin irritation.

Effectively helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles, giving the skin a more youthful and firm appearance.

Improves rough skin texture and minimizes the appearance of enlarged pores, resulting in smoother, clearer-looking skin.

Helps even out skin tone and lighten pigmentation, dark spots, and acne marks.

Contains soothing and moisturizing ingredients that protect the skin barrier and minimize the risk of dryness or peeling.

Enhances skin elasticity and firms sagging areas by continuously stimulating natural collagen production.

Comes in a 20g size with a concentrated, fast-absorbing formula that leaves no greasy or heavy residue on the skin.

How to Use:

Apply a small, pea-sized amount to completely clean, dry skin as a step prior to your moisturizer in your evening skincare routine.

Gently spread the cream over the entire face, strictly avoiding the eye area, lips, and the corners of the nose.

Gently pat with fingertips to ensure the product penetrates and absorbs fully.

Beginners are advised to start gradually (2–3 times a week) and increase frequency based on skin tolerance.

It is highly recommended to apply a rich moisturizer after the retinol absorbs to soothe the skin and lock in moisture.

Strictly apply high-protection sunscreen the following morning, as retinol increases skin sensitivity to the sun.

Warnings:

Do not use... Not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women due to the presence of Vitamin A derivatives (retinol).

For external use only; avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

May cause dryness, redness, or mild peeling during initial use; this is normal. However, discontinue use immediately if severe irritation or pain occurs.

Do not use on irritated or wounded skin, areas with active inflammation, or immediately after laser treatments or clinical chemical peels.

Do not use in the same evening routine as potent chemical exfoliants (such as AHA/BHA acids) or high-concentration Vitamin C to avoid skin sensitivity.

Keep out of reach of children.

Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to maintain the stability and efficacy of the retinol.
