More
It eliminates dullness, gently lightens pigmentation, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, slows down aging, and leaves skin smooth and radiant. Thanks to its moisturizing and nourishing components, combined with retinol and bakuchiol, the product works delicately, making it suitable for beginners in retinoid skincare. The serum has a gel-like texture that absorbs quickly without stickiness. The pump bottle prevents formula oxidation, preserving the serum’s beneficial properties for longer.
Key active ingredient:
Contains 0.1% Retinol (1000 ppm), a form of vitamin A that stimulates cell renewal. Retinol normalizes sebum production, preventing oily shine and comedones. It boosts collagen and hyaluronic acid synthesis, smooths skin texture, tightens pores, and reduces the depth of wrinkles. To minimize potential irritation from retinol, the formula includes bakuchiol, a plant-based active ingredient that stabilizes vitamin A.
Additional active ingredients:
- Bakuchiol – A plant-derived ingredient with effects similar to retinol: it stimulates renewal, making the skin smoother and more even. Bakuchiol does not cause irritation and is suitable for sensitive skin.
- Panthenol (Vitamin B5) – Speeds up healing, soothes and softens, enhances the epidermal barrier, and strengthens the skin’s natural protective layer.
- Birch Sap – Contains vitamins, fructose, sucrose, and organic acids. Provides essential minerals, tones, and supports smoothness.
- Soy Oil – Provides anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, restores the moisture barrier, and reduces UV-induced damage.
- Blue Complex-HR – A botanical complex with extracts of hyacinth, cornflower, lavender, sage, chamomile, and borage. Soothes and softens, offering antioxidant protection.
- Allantoin – Softens, accelerates healing, provides antioxidant effects, and reduces skin reactivity.
- Tocopherol (Vitamin E) – Smooths wrinkles, tones, accelerates healing, eliminates flaking, and balances lipids.
