Retinal Booster Shot 30ml

This night treatment serum is built around Retinal (retinaldehyde) at 200 ppm — a more potent vitamin-A derivative than retinol, since it converts to retinoic acid in fewer steps — alongside bakuchiol, caffeine, and ectoin, cushioned by a ceramide NP, cholesterol, and fatty-acid barrier complex to help manage typical retinoid irritation.

Key Benefits

• Retinal (retinaldehyde, 200 ppm) targets visible texture, fine lines, and pore appearance more directly than retinol
• Bakuchiol adds a plant-derived, retinoid-adjacent ingredient alongside the retinal
• Caffeine helps energize the look of dull, tired skin and supports the appearance of de-puffing
• Ectoin and a Ceramide NP / cholesterol / fatty-acid barrier complex help defend against dryness during retinoid use
• Niacinamide and Centella Asiatica extract support calming and tone
• A peptide blend (including Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Hexapeptide-2, Hexapeptide-9, Tripeptide-1) supports elasticity-focused care
• Alcohol-free, fragrance- and essential-oil-free formula

When to Use

Evening only. If new to retinoids, start every other night to build tolerance, then increase to nightly use as skin adjusts. Not intended for daytime use.

How to Use

• Apply to clean, dry skin after cleansing and toning, before moisturizer
• Smooth a thin layer over the whole face or on specific textured areas
• Avoid layering with other strong exfoliating acids or vitamin C in the same routine while introducing it
• Always follow the next morning with broad-spectrum sunscreen
