The Medicube Deep Vita A Retinol Serum is a potent anti-aging treatment designed to rejuvenate skin by addressing fine lines, uneven tone, and texture. This 30ml serum combines multiple retinoid derivatives—including retinal, encapsulated retinol, and hydroxypinacolone retinoate—with bakuchiol, a plant-based alternative known for its gentler effects. Niacinamide and ceramide NP enhance skin barrier function and reduce inflammation, while hydrolyzed collagen and squalane provide hydration and elasticity. Centella Asiatica extract soothes and supports skin repair, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Begin by applying a rice-grain-sized amount every other evening for the first two weeks to allow your skin to adapt. After this initial period, increase to nightly use, applying a thin layer evenly across the face. Gradually increase the amount used to enhance absorption. Some users may experience mild redness, warmth, or flaking as their skin adjusts. Always perform a patch test before full application and wear sunscreen during the day.
