Unlock an advanced, multi-level clinical solution for vertical pore expansion and structural texture depletion. While traditional pure retinol is highly celebrated for its dramatic anti-aging benefits, it is notoriously prone to inducing the "retinol purge"—causing severe flaking, redness, and barrier breakdown if left unbuffered. The VT Cica Reti-A Essence systematically overrides these limitations by seamlessly stabilizing pure Vitamin A derivatives within a deeply calming botanical cushion.

This progressive sub-acidic serum targets structural skin aging by boosting healthy collagen synthesis and prompting lazy skin cells to shed naturally. As the nutrient-rich fluid saturates the skin matrix, it targets the root causes of pore stretching, reinforcing collapsed pore walls and smoothing out stubborn surface micro-bumps. By tailoring your routine from 0.1 up to 0.7, you allow your canvas to safely build tolerance, achieving unparalleled glass skin clarity, refined contours, and uniform tone without down-time irritation.

  • Scalable Reti-A Retexturizing: Offers four scientifically calibrated strengths to safely guide your skin barrier from basic conditioning to advanced clinical-grade resurfacing.
  • Vertical Pore Architecture Tightening: Actively contracts loose, horizontally and vertically stretched pore networks by rebuilding local skin density.
  • Cica-Cushioned Active Delivery: Combines stabilized retinol with intensive Centella Asiatica properties to effectively block environmental sensitivity and peeling.
  • Fine Line & Expression Ironing: Drives essential anti-aging nutrients into early micro-wrinkles, noticeably plumping out smile lines and dry texture folds.

Key Ingredients

  • Reti-A Complex (Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate & Retinol): A next-generation, stabilized Vitamin A matrix that delivers deep anti-aging and texturizing results with enhanced biological stability.
  • CICAHYALON™: VT's proprietary complex of Centella Asiatica Extract, Green Propolis Extract, and Triple Hyaluronic Acid to continuously soothe redness and preserve core hydration.
  • Bakuchiol: A plant-derived retinol alternative that works in flawless synergy to multiply firming efficiency while remaining exceptionally gentle on sensitive skin.
  • Adenosine & Niacinamide: A certified functional duo that supports overall skin elasticity, visibly irons out expression creases, and clears up post-blemish shadows.

  • Step 1: Use exclusively during your evening (PM) skincare routine. After cleansing and toning, ensure your face is completely dry.
  • Step 2: Pump a pea-sized amount and apply a thin layer evenly across your face, focusing heavily on areas with enlarged pores, rough texture, or fine wrinkles. Avoid the immediate eye contours and lip lines.
  • Step 3: Gently massage in upward circular motions until fully absorbed, then immediately follow up with a rich, barrier-strengthening moisturizer.
  • Step 4: The following morning, thoroughly wash your face to remove any active retinol residue, and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher to shield newly surfaced skin cells from UV sensitivity.

⚠️ Crucial Retinol Retexturizing & Acclimatization Guide:

• The Acclimatization Phase: When first introducing the Cica Reti-A Essence (especially starting at 0.1 or 0.3), apply it strictly 2-3 times a week for the first two weeks. Once your skin adjusts without redness or flaking, increase usage to every night. Only transition to 0.5 and 0.7 after your skin has completely mastered the lower concentrations.

• Routine Warnings: Avoid using concurrently with harsh physical facial scrubs, high-percentage AHA/BHA chemical peels, or vitamin C serums within the same evening routine to prevent overstimulation.

• Do not use if you are pregnant or lactating. Discontinue use immediately if severe redness, swelling, or burning sensations persist.
