SEOUL 1988 Serum: Retinal Liposome 2% + Black Ginseng

KSECRET SEOUL 1988 Serum: Retinal Liposome 2% + Black Ginseng is an anti-aging serum with 2% Retinal liposome and Black ginseng to promote a youthful, radiant complexion, while addressing skin texture, hydration, and the reduction of wrinkles.

It is formulated with 2% 'retinal liposome' that was stabilised by breaking the retinal into smaller elements and enclosing it in liposomes and then adding ingredients such as natural lipids and oils. Retinal is a vitamin A derivative and has long been used throughout the history of skin care to improve wrinkles, fine lines, and uneven skin tone and texture. Retinal, which is converted directly to retinoic acid, works faster and more effectively on the skin than retinol, which must go through the process of becoming retinal. 58% Black ginseng extract offers antioxidant benefits for skin protection.

Combined with bakuchiol, vitamin C, and three (3) peptides provide a powerful anti-aging complex. These help improve collagen production support to retinal, increasing skin elasticity for a higher anti-wrinkle effect. With the addition of niacinamide and burdock root extract, the serum also provides texture improvesment, and pore and trouble care.

It has a smooth texture that absorbs quickly.

Reef safe and free of common allergens, alcohols, fragrances, oils, parabens, sulfates, silicones and artificial colors.

HOW TO USE

1. After cleansing your face in the morning or evening, dispense a pea sized amount for entire face and neck. Excessive amount may cause irritation.
2. Gently massage until fully absorbed.
3. Apply on dry skin. It may cause irritation when applied on damp skin.
4. Use 'sandwich method' when applying retinal: light moisturiser - retinal - rich moisturiser.
5. Use at night. Retinal is deactivated by sunlight, so it is recommended to use at night or if used in daytime, use sunscreen with at least SPF30.
6. Retinal usage tips:
   1. Week 1-2: Use 2x a week.
   2. Week 3-4: Use every other night.
   3. From Week 5: Use every night.
7. Recommendation for retinal line use:
   1. For retinoid beginners: recommended to start using only 1 product containing retinoids (including retinal) in your skincare routine.
   2. For experienced retinoid users: combine 2-3 retinal liposome productsin your skincare routine, eg 2% serum with 1% moisturiser, or 4% eye cream with 1% moisturiser.
8. CAUTION: Patch test is recommended before use. Retinal products are not recommended for use by pregnant or nursing mothers. Always check with your doctor before using any new products while pregnant or nursing.
