PRODUCT DETAILS

A considered step for your evening routine, this leave-on retinol serum supports firmer, smoother and more refined-looking skin. It is designed to soften the appearance of uneven texture and enlarged pores while supporting a plumper, more resilient look.

The formula pairs retinol and retinal for a clear retinoid focus. Peptides support firmer, plumper-looking skin, while niacinamide helps care for uneven-looking tone and the skin barrier. Panthenol adds moisture and further barrier support.

Glycerin, squalane, beta-glucan, ceramide NP and sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer provide additional moisturizing support. This brings hydrating support to the experience alongside the serum's glowing-complexion benefits.

Its lightweight gel texture absorbs quickly, keeping the evening step simple. The formula is positioned as gentle enough for sensitive skin, though individual tolerance can vary, so a gradual introduction is still the thoughtful way in.
