The Gentle Revolution in Anti-Aging
Experience the transformative power of retinol without the irritation with innisfree Retinol Cica Repair Ampoule, a breakthrough formula that combines the gold-standard anti-aging benefits of retinol with the soothing, barrier-strengthening properties of cica. This concentrated ampoule is your answer to visibly younger, smoother, more radiant skin—even if you have sensitive skin or have struggled with retinol in the past.
Why Retinol + Cica Changes Everything
Retinol is universally recognized as the most effective anti-aging ingredient available—proven to reduce wrinkles, boost collagen, refine texture, and fade dark spots. But for many people, retinol comes with a price: redness, dryness, flaking, and sensitivity. That's where this innovative formula revolutionizes the game. By pairing retinol with cica (Centella Asiatica), known as "tiger grass" for its legendary healing properties, this ampoule delivers all the benefits of retinol while actively soothing, calming, and protecting your skin barrier.
The Science of Gentle Transformation
This isn't just retinol and cica thrown together—it's a carefully engineered delivery system designed for maximum efficacy and minimum irritation. The formula uses an encapsulated retinol technology that releases the active ingredient gradually over time, providing sustained anti-aging benefits without the shock to your skin that can cause irritation. Meanwhile, cica extract works continuously to calm inflammation, strengthen the skin barrier, and accelerate healing, creating the perfect environment for retinol to work its magic.
A Texture That Feels Like Luxury
This ampoule is a sensorial masterpiece. The silky, lightweight serum glides across skin like liquid velvet, absorbing instantly without any sticky residue or heavy feeling. Despite its powerful concentration of actives, it feels incredibly gentle and comfortable on skin—no tingling, no tightness, just smooth, nourished skin that drinks in the treatment eagerly.
Visible Results, Gentle Journey
- Wrinkle Reduction & Prevention: Retinol stimulates collagen production and accelerates cell turnover to visibly smooth fine lines and prevent new ones from forming
- Texture Refinement: Resurfaces skin to reveal a smoother, more refined complexion with minimized pores and improved clarity
- Dark Spot Fading: Accelerates the fading of hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and post-acne marks for more even tone
- Barrier Repair & Soothing: Cica strengthens skin's natural defenses while calming redness and sensitivity
- Radiance Boost: Reveals brighter, more luminous skin by removing dull, dead surface cells
- Gentle Enough for Sensitive Skin: The cica-retinol synergy makes this suitable even for those who typically struggle with retinol
Your Path to Retinol Success
Start slowly to allow your skin to acclimate. Begin by using 2-3 times per week in the evening only. After cleansing and toning, dispense 2-3 drops into your palm and gently press into face and neck, avoiding the immediate eye area. Follow with your moisturizer to seal in the treatment. As your skin builds tolerance (usually after 2-4 weeks), you can gradually increase to nightly use. Always use SPF during the day when using retinol products. With consistent use, you'll witness a remarkable transformation—smoother texture, fewer wrinkles, brighter tone, and skin that looks unmistakably younger and more radiant.
