DESCRIPTION
The Some By Mi Retinol Intense Reactivating Serum is a popular Korean beginner-friendly anti-aging treatment designed to be potent yet gentle enough for sensitive skin. It combines three key retinoids: 0.1% Retinol, Retinal, and Bakuchiol to improve skin elasticity and reduce fine lines without the heavy irritation often associated with Vitamin A products.
KEY INGREDIENTS AND BENEFITS
- Triple Retinol Synergy: Contains Retinol (0.1%), Retinal (1ppm), and Bakuchiol (5,000ppm) to stimulate collagen and accelerate cell turnover for a firmer, smoother complexion.
- Elastic-Liposome Technology: A patented delivery system that encapsulates active ingredients to help them penetrate deeper into the skin layers effectively.
- Barrier Support: Formulated with Panthenol, Ceramides, and Truecica™ to soothe redness, strengthen the moisture barrier, and protect against external irritation.
- Texture: Reviewers describe it as a non-sticky, moisturizing formula with a fast-absorbing finish.
HOW TO USE
To avoid purging or excessive dryness, it is critical to introduce this serum gradually:
- Week 1–2: Use a small amount (pea-sized) once daily in the evening only. If you have ultra-sensitive skin, use it every other day.
- Week 3+: If no discomfort occurs, you may increase the frequency to every night.
- Precautions: Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen the following morning, as retinol increases sun sensitivity. Avoid using it simultaneously with strong exfoliants (AHA/BHA) or high-strength Vitamin C to minimize irritation.
