What it is

A targeted retinol serum designed for evening use to support skin renewal and texture refinement.

It combines retinol with soothing and supportive ingredients to help improve visible signs of ageing while maintaining skin comfort.
Why we love it
  • Helps support smoother, firmer-looking skin with consistent night use
  • Combines retinol and peptides, ingredients we look for in targeted anti-ageing care
  • Lightweight serum texture absorbs well without feeling greasy
  • Balanced with soothing ingredients to support skin comfort
  • Curated pick: Chosen for its focused approach to retinol care with added peptide support
Key Ingredients & Benefits
  • Retinol (Vitamin A) – Helps support skin renewal, improve the appearance of fine lines, and refine skin texture
  • Peptide Complex – Helps support skin firmness and elasticity
  • Panthenol & Allantoin – Help soothe skin and reduce discomfort associated with retinol use
  • Vitamin E & Beta-Carotene – Provide antioxidant support
  • Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride & Plant Oils – Help maintain moisture balance during night-time treatment
How To Use
  1. Use in the evening only, after cleansing and toning.
  2. Apply a pea-sized amount evenly to the face, avoiding the eye and lip areas.
  3. Gently pat until absorbed.
  4. Follow with a moisturiser.
  5. Start by using 2–3 times per week, then gradually increase frequency as skin builds tolerance.
  6. Use sunscreen daily during the daytime while using retinol products.

Skin Type & Concerns

Skin Types: Normal, Combination, Oily, Sensitive (use with caution)

Concerns: Fine lines, loss of firmness, uneven texture, dullness, early signs of ageing
Layering & Compatibility

Pairs well with: Hydrating and barrier-support products — toners, essences, and creams rich in humectants, panthenol, ceramides, peptides, or soothing ingredients help maintain comfort while retinol is active; recovery-focused products — PDRN, centella, beta-glucan, and calming moisturisers support skin repair and tolerance

Avoid using: Exfoliating acids (AHA, BHA, PHA) in the same routine, as this may increase irritation and compromise the skin barrier; other retinoids in the same routine — avoid stacking vitamin A products; highly active multi-step routines layered all at once

Layering tip: Use as the main active step at night, then follow with a soothing, barrier-supporting moisturiser; if sensitivity occurs, reduce frequency rather than layering additional actives

Pro Tip: Those with dry or sensitive skin should patch test first and introduce gradually; start with 2–3 times per week, then increase frequency as tolerated once the skin feels comfortable and well hydrated; pairing with rich barrier creams or PDRN can help minimise dryness and improve long-term tolerance
