MEDICUBE Deep Vita A Retinol Serum 5-Layer Retinoid Complex Anti-Ageing Serum 30ml

Retinol that actually delivers — without the drama. MEDICUBE's Deep Vita A Retinol Serum contains a sophisticated 5-layer retinoid complex that combines five distinct forms of vitamin A (retinol, retinal, retinyl palmitate, retinyl linoleate, and hydroxypinacolone retinoate) to deliver powerful anti-ageing results with a significantly gentler approach than single-form retinol products. Clinically shown to increase collagen synthesis by 158%, it's paired with bakuchiol, niacinamide, and a richly hydrating base to buffer sensitivity and support the barrier throughout. Used consistently, it smooths texture, brightens tone, and visibly firms — while your skin stays genuinely comfortable.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS
• 5-layer retinoid complex (retinol, retinal, retinyl palmitate, retinyl linoleate, and hydroxypinacolone retinoate) provides comprehensive anti-ageing action with reduced irritation compared to single-form formulas
• Clinically demonstrated to increase collagen synthesis by 158%, visibly improving firmness, smoothness, and skin density
• Bakuchiol — a plant-based retinol alternative — enhances anti-ageing results and adds extra gentleness, particularly for sensitive skin
• Niacinamide brightens tone, minimises pores, and helps offset the potential for retinoid-related redness
• Squalane, panthenol, hyaluronic acid, and centella extracts provide soothing, moisturising support to counteract dryness
• Ceramide NP reinforces the skin barrier so the retinoids can work effectively without compromising skin integrity

HOW TO USE
Use in the evening only — retinoids can increase photosensitivity.
After cleansing and toning, apply a small amount to dry skin and smooth gently over the face.
Begin with two to three times a week and gradually increase frequency as skin adjusts.
Always apply SPF during the day when using retinol products.

HAZARDS AND CAUTIONS
Retinoids may cause sensitivity, dryness, or peeling during initial use. Patch test before first use. Avoid use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Do not use alongside other strong acids or exfoliants without care. Keep away from the eye area. Sunscreen during the day is essential.
