Key Ingredients

1% Retinal (Retinaldehyde): Physiologically alters damaged DNA and new cells replicate in a healthier state. Facilitates the renewal of ageing skin cells and promotes collagen production within three months, adding volume to the dermal tissue. Fades away hyperpigmentation and reduces the distended vessels' appearance. Considered safe during pregnancy.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Acts as a potent anti-inflammatory. Regulates moisture levels, targets hyperpigmentation, and restores the barrier function of the skin. 

Tetrapeptide 30: A biomimetic amino acid that visibly works to target dark spots, uneven skin tones and dullness. Reduces acne lesions, and melasma with a potent anti-inflammatory effect. 

L-Carnitine: Maintains moisture levels while exfoliating the skin.

L-Glutathione: It's a powerful antioxidant that diminishes hyperpigmentation and targets concerns including acne, psoriasis, wrinkles, and melasma.

Squalane: Effectively hydrates the skin from within and balances moisture levels. Miimises the fine lines and wrinkles. 

Hyaluronic Acid and Ultra Low Weight Hyaluronic Acid: Assists in wound healing and repairs barrier function which is essential for dry/ dehydrated skin types. 

Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate (Advanced Vitamin C): Neutralises free radicals, and stimulates collagen.

Salix Alba Bark (White Willow) Extract: An effective anti-oxidant, and soothing agent that aids acne, enlarged pores, psoriasis & eczema.

CoQ10: A potent antioxidant that neutralises harmful free radicals, preventing premature ageing 

Beta Glucan & Aloe: Heal wounds on the skin

Sodium PCA: It has a natural moisturising factor 

Anti-inflammatories: D-alpha-tocopherol, Alpha Bisabolol, Allantoin, Calendula, Chamomile, Seabuckthorn, Green Tea, Colloidal Oatmeal

Holy Grail A serum

This one deserves a second, proper review from me as it has risen in my ranks to become one of my fave skincare products of all time. I have been using prescription vitamin A (tretinoin) for over ten years now, which is supposed to be the Big Daddy for results. However, I have honestly been seeing better results from this product than I have from the tretinoin. It has a broad spectrum of very powerful antioxidants in the formula and I can only assume this is why I am getting smoother crow's feet and forehead lines with this, compared to the tretinoin. It's an incredible all-rounder for mature skin. I think I'm on my sixth bottle by now :0 A tip for those who are less accustomed to premium, strong vitamin A (like the whopping 1% Retinal in this product), is to start with DRSQ's Miracle ProVitamin serum instead, which seems to be a very similar profile of ingredients to this serum - but just a bit milder for newbies. Personally, I use them both, with the Miracle serum a daily serum and the Advanced A added every second night. It is super lightweight and it spreads incredibly far - two pumps with cover over your entire face and neck. It has a slight yellow cast on application (a really good sign that this is proper Retinal!), but it will quickly absorb and disappear once you put a moisturiser over it. A true 5 star holy grail serum for me. Indispensable.
