KSECRET Seoul 1988 Serum Retinal Liposome 2% + Black Ginseng 30ml

If you want to start caring for the look of fine lines and mature-looking skin, a well-balanced retinal serum is a great step. The KSECRET Seoul 1988 Serum: Retinal Liposome 2% + Black Ginseng is a retinal serum that pairs 2% liposomal retinal with a high level of black ginseng, made to support a smoother, firmer-looking finish while staying comfortable to use.

The liposome delivery is the clever part. Retinal is a potent form of vitamin A, and encapsulating it helps release it gradually for a gentler feel. Black ginseng and hanbang root extracts add antioxidant care, while niacinamide, bakuchiol, a stable vitamin C derivative and peptides round out this Korean anti-aging serum.

A quick note on suitability: This suits skin wanting a retinal step for the look of fine lines and a firmer finish. Because retinal is potent, start slowly, use it in the evening and wear sunscreen the next day. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your doctor first.

3. Gently massage until fully absorbed, avoiding the immediate eye area.

4. Start about twice a week for the first couple of weeks, then build up as your skin adjusts.
