Key Benefits

• 2% Retinal — High Potency Anti-Aging: Clinically effective concentration of Retinal (Retinaldehyde) visibly reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity while accelerating cell turnover for smoother, younger-looking skin
• Liposome Encapsulation Technology: Retinal is encapsulated in phospholipid liposomes that protect the active from degradation and deliver it precisely into the deeper layers of the skin — maximising efficacy while minimising surface irritation
• Black Ginseng Regeneration: Rare, highly concentrated Black Ginseng extract stimulates collagen synthesis, improves skin elasticity, and revitalises tired, dull skin with powerful adaptogenic energy
• Firming & Lifting: Dual actives work synergistically to improve skin density, firmness, and facial contour for a visibly lifted, sculpted appearance
• Brightening & Radiance: Black Ginseng's antioxidant-rich profile combats dullness and uneven tone, while Retinal promotes a smoother, more luminous complexion
• Skin Barrier Support: Liposome delivery system reinforces the skin's lipid barrier, improving resilience and reducing sensitivity over time

Key Ingredients

Retinal (Retinaldehyde) 2%: A next-generation Vitamin A derivative that is one biochemical step closer to retinoic acid than retinol. At 2% concentration, it delivers powerful anti-aging results — stimulating collagen, accelerating cell renewal, and refining skin texture — with a superior tolerability profile compared to equivalent retinol concentrations.

Liposome Encapsulation: Phospholipid-based nano-carriers that encapsulate Retinal molecules, protecting them from oxidation and enabling targeted, time-released delivery into the dermis. This technology significantly enhances bioavailability and reduces the risk of surface irritation.

Black Ginseng Extract: Produced through a repeated steaming and drying process, Black Ginseng is a highly potent form of Ginseng with elevated concentrations of Ginsenosides — powerful adaptogenic compounds that stimulate collagen production, improve microcirculation, and restore vitality to aging, fatigued skin.

How to Use

Use in the evening after cleansing and toning. Apply 2–3 drops to face and neck. Gently press and pat into skin until fully absorbed. Follow with moisturiser. Begin with 2–3 applications per week and gradually increase to nightly use as skin adjusts. Always apply broad-spectrum SPF in the morning when using Retinal products.

Pro Tip: For enhanced results, layer over a hydrating toner or essence before application to support Retinal absorption and minimise any initial sensitivity.

Suitable For

All skin types, including sensitive skin. Ideal for those targeting visible signs of aging, loss of firmness, dullness, or uneven texture. Suitable for retinoid beginners and experienced users seeking a high-potency, well-tolerated formula.
