Born from Kose's 70+ years of Japanese skincare science, this serum was created to address the specific skin challenges of modern life—pollution, blue light, and daily stress that accelerate visible aging. Dr. Phil, a leading Japanese dermatologist, formulated it with a singular goal: to deliver intensive, targeted care that works with your skin's natural rhythm, not against it. The core ingredient, IC.U Algex EX, is a patented complex developed after 8 years of clinical research in Japanese labs. Every batch is produced in a GMP-certified facility in Japan, adhering to the strictest pharmaceutical-grade standards. It's not just another serum; it's a top-ranked anti-aging treatment in Japan, trusted for its no-nonsense, results-focused approach that prioritizes skin health over temporary fixes.

The Kose Dr. PHIL IC.U Algex EX Intensive Anti-Aging Serum - 15g contains a sophisticated blend of ingredients designed to target multiple signs of aging. Key components include retinol, a derivative of vitamin A that stimulates collagen production and accelerates cell turnover to reduce fine lines and improve skin texture. Hyaluronic acid is incorporated for its exceptional hydrating properties, attracting and retaining moisture to plump the skin and diminish the appearance of wrinkles. Niacinamide (vitamin B3) helps to strengthen the skin barrier, reduce redness, and improve elasticity while addressing hyperpigmentation. Peptides such as palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 are included to signal collagen synthesis, enhancing firmness and resilience. Antioxidants like vitamin C and vitamin E protect against environmental damage from free radicals, preventing premature aging and promoting a brighter complexion. Additionally, botanical extracts such as licorice root and green tea provide soothing and anti-inflammatory benefits, calming irritation and supporting overall skin health. This formulation works synergistically to deliver intensive anti-aging effects, including improved hydration, reduced wrinkles, enhanced firmness, and a more radiant, even-toned appearance.
