- Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate: a retinoid derivative present in the formula.
- Retinyl Palmitate: a vitamin A derivative.
- Retinyl Linoleate and Retinyl Retinoate: other vitamin A derivatives present in the formula.
Bakuchiol
Bakuchiol is a plant-derived active ingredient popular in skincare targeting visible signs of aging and textural irregularities. It complements the vitamin A complex.
Niacinamide
Niacinamide contributes to improving the appearance of skin tone and texture while helping to maintain the skin barrier.
Squalane
Squalane helps maintain skin hydration and provides a feeling of suppleness and comfort.
Panthenol
Panthenol is a moisturizing and soothing agent that helps maintain skin comfort.
Hyaluronic acid
Sodium hyaluronate, a form of hyaluronic acid present in the formula, helps maintain skin hydration.
Ceramide NP
The formula also contains Ceramide NP, a lipid naturally present in the skin barrier, which helps maintain its integrity.
Centella Asiatica
The formula contains several ingredients derived from Centella Asiatica, traditionally used in skincare for skin that needs comfort and soothing.
For what skin type?
The Medicube Deep Vita A Retinol Serum may be suitable for:
- Normal skin
- Dry skin
- Combination skin
- Mature skin
- Skin with textural irregularities
- Skin concerned with fine lines
- Skin with uneven tone
For sensitive skin or those who have never used retinol, a particularly gradual introduction is recommended.
How to use the serum?
Retinol must be introduced gradually.
During the first two weeks
In the evening, after toner:
- Apply a small amount of serum, about the size of a grain of rice.
- Start by using it every other evening.
- Spread gently over the face.
- Tap gently until absorbed.
- Follow with a moisturizer.
After the adaptation period
If the skin tolerates the product well, the frequency can be gradually increased up to daily evening use.
It is best not to start with daily use when the skin is not accustomed to retinoids.
Advice for starting with retinol
For first-time use, it is recommended to start slowly and observe how the skin reacts.
A slight sensation of warmth, redness, or peeling may occur when introducing a product containing retinol. If significant irritation occurs, reduce frequency or discontinue use.
During the day, use broad-spectrum sunscreen as part of any routine that includes retinol.
Precautions for use
- For external use only.
- Avoid direct contact with eyes.
- Do not apply to irritated or damaged skin.
- Introduce gradually into your routine.
- In case of significant irritation, discontinue use.
- Store in a cool place, away from light.
- The product color may slightly change over time due to the sensitivity of retinoids to oxidation.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should seek advice from their healthcare professional before using products containing retinoids.
