Beginners 0.05 Retinal Antioxidant Peptide Cerum - Anti-Ageing
Beginners 0.05 Retinal Antioxidant Peptide Cerum - Anti-Ageing
A pro-active serum formulated with 0.05% Retinaldehyde to challenge the effects of time on ageing skin. Fights wrinkle, reduces pigmentation and firms skin whilst protecting it from everyday external stresses. Your weapon for the war against time.
Retinaldehyde, commonly referred to as retinal, is at least 10x more efficient than traditional retinol, enabling you to see results much more quickly. Nano-sized liposomal retinaldehyde is even more powerful; the active retinal is stabilised and preserved in a protective sphere that penetrates deep into the skin. Once absorbed, the retinal becomes active after the skin's enzymatic processes break down the protective outer sphere, releasing the retinal, which then begins to take effect.
Suitable for individuals with previous experience using retinol or its derivatives.
✔ Nano-Size Liposomal Retinaldehyde penetrates deeper and acts faster than traditional retinol, helping reduce wrinkles and fine lines while lifting, firming, and toning for younger-looking skin.
✔ Nobel Prize-winning Ingredient Juvinity™ for maintaining youthful skin quality.
✔ Liposomal Tetrapeptide Decorinyl® is a liposome tetrapeptide that mimics the structure of decorin for smoother, more resilient skin.
✔ Osmolytes - assist in maintaining tight skin junctions and reducing trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL).
✔ Antioxidants and Vitamins A, B, C, and E to mitigate irritation and promote brighter, clearer, luminous skin.
✔ Pentavitin offers superior, long-lasting hydration compared to hyaluronic acid.
✔ Essential Fatty Acids to lock in moisture.
✔ Non-comedogenic.

Ingredient Spotlight
Ingredient Spotlight
Retinaldehyde (Retinal) is a powerful derivative from the retinoid family, second only to retinoic acid in terms of effectiveness and efficiency for achieving youthful, clear skin. Thanks to its multi-functional benefits, this ingredient boosts cell turnover to reduce hyperpigmentation and acne breakouts, while also promoting collagen production and preventing collagen breakdown for a thicker, firmer complexion with reduced wrinkles. Retinaldehyde is safer and less irritating than other retinoids. To achieve these results, a minimum concentration of 0.025%* retinaldehyde is recommended. At 0.05%, it is tolerable for most skin types including those with sensitive skin. Like all retinoids, it should be used at night only, due to its instability in sunlight.
Decorinyl® is a liposome tetrapeptide that mimics the structure of decorin, a protein that binds to collagen fibrils and plays a crucial role in skin repair and maintenance. As we age, the quality of decorin decreases, and this peptide can help improve this, resulting in smoother, resilient skin.
Edelweiss Extract (Leontopodium Alpinum Extract), with its high chlorogenic acids content and unique leontopodic acid profile helps the skin resist the oxidative stress brought on by environmental aggressors and averts the natural decline of skin elasticity and dermal density to maintain a firm and lifted overall youthful appearance.
Niacinamide is important in skincare in many aspects and has many different benefits depending on its concentration in the product. At 3.5%, niacinamide improves barrier function, decreases TEWL, smoothen and brighten skin tone.
Geranylgeranyl-Isopropanol is a Nobel prize winning high-tech ingredient with compelling anti-ageing benefits for the skin. It protects the skin from oxidative stress and helps stabilise skin’s telomere length. With each skin cycle turnover, the telomere length shortens, but by maintaining telomere length, the skin can maintain its youthful complexion longer.

Recommended Usage
Recommended Usage
Use only in the evening before bedtime in your skincare routine. Preferably when the skin is no longer expose to sunlight.
Sunscreen is recommended during the daytime when incorporating this serum into your routine.
It is advised to use sunscreen while using retinoids in your skincare routine, as their exfoliating properties may leave young skin more vulnerable to sunlight. Additionally, the decrease in melanin production caused by retinoid use may reduce your skin's natural protection against the sun. It is important to not only treat your skin, but also take precautions to prevent further damage. This step is crucial in achieving desired results from your skincare regimen.
Not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
