High-level description: A vegan-certified, irritation-tested anti-aging serum that combines retinal (0.112%) and bakuchiol (2%) for visibly smoother, firmer, and brighter skin with minimal irritation.

Category: Serum & Ampoule

A clinically tested vegan serum that targets wrinkles, loss of elasticity, and dullness through a next-generation retinoid system.

It pairs retinal (1,120 ppm) with bakuchiol (20,000 ppm) — a plant-derived retinoid alternative — to improve firmness and clarity while maintaining barrier comfort.

Developed to deliver retinoid-level efficacy without the dryness or irritation commonly associated with traditional retinol.

Dual-retinoid synergy (retinal + bakuchiol) visibly smooths and refines skin texture.
Niacinamide and peptides improve elasticity and radiance.
Ceramides and ectoin strengthen and protect the skin barrier.
Clinically irritation-tested — gentle enough for sensitive skin.
Curated pick: An IrelKGlow recommendation for those wanting true retinoid results with calm, hydrated skin — beautifully balanced and glow-enhancing.

Retinal (1,120 ppm / 0.112%) – supports collagen renewal and reduces visible lines.
Bakuchiol (20,000 ppm / 2%) – a plant-based retinoid alternative that firms and refines without irritation.
Niacinamide – brightens and evens the skin tone.
Ectoin – defends against environmental stress and dehydration.
Ceramide Complex (5 types) – reinforces the skin barrier.
Peptide Complex (4 types) – boosts firmness and smooths fine lines.

Apply in the evening after toner and essence.
Use a small amount (½ pump) and spread evenly over the face.
Follow with a moisturiser or barrier cream.
Start 2–3 times per week, then increase frequency gradually as tolerance builds.

Tip: Avoid layering with acids or pure Vitamin C. Always use SPF 30+ the next morning after using this product.
