celimax The Vita-A: Retinal Shot Tightening Booster 15 ml & Retinol Shot Tightening Serum 30 ml
Korean vitamin A skincare in two formulas. The Booster pairs retinal 0.1% with Matrixyl 3000 (3%) and panthenol 1% for areas of concern. The Serum combines pure retinol 0.1% with a 9-peptide complex and panthenol 1% for even evening use over the face.
Benefits
- Helps skin look smoother and firmer with consistent evening use
- Supports a refined look to the appearance of pores
- Retinal sits one conversion step from retinoic acid; retinol needs two
- Panthenol 1%, niacinamide and adenosine help skin feel comfortable
- Fragrance-free and alcohol-free Booster (cetearyl alcohol is a non-drying fatty alcohol)
How to use
- Evening only: cleanse and pat skin completely dry
- Booster: a small amount, about a grain of rice per area of concern. Serum: an even layer over the face
- First two weeks: every other evening, then nightly if your skin is comfortable
- Moisturise, and wear SPF every morning

Good to know
Visible results build gradually with consistent use. Patch test before first use and start every other evening if you are new to retinoids. A slight tingling can be normal; if skin feels tight, use less and less often. Keep away from eyes, lips and nostrils. Retinoids may increase sun sensitivity, so daily SPF is recommended. Not for use in pregnancy or breastfeeding unless your doctor advises otherwise. External use only. Cosmetic product, not intended to treat any medical condition.
