Benefits
0.1% stabilised pure retinol made for beginners: The panels describe a 0.1% stabilised formula that is recommended for beginners who are not yet used to retinol, with a cream texture that keeps irritation to a minimum, so you can start with confidence.
An aluminium tube keeps the retinol stable: The panel explains that an aluminium tube is used to protect retinol, which is weak against light, heat and air, so every squeeze delivers a stable cream until the tube is finished.
Super vitamin E and panthenol in a creamy, non-sticky texture: The tube names super vitamin E and panthenol with a creamy texture that is not sticky, so your night routine feels comfortable and your skin looks smooth and supple the next morning.
No added fragrance for a calm night cream: The listing states that the cream is fragrance-free and its ingredient list shows no fragrance. Retinol can make skin sensitive, so test a small amount on your inner arm first, start every other night, and stop use if irritation appears. Keep it out of your eyes.
Shipped directly from Japan with careful packing: We ship this retinol cream directly from Japan with careful packing, and we recommend you check the aluminium tube and its cap or pump when it arrives, so you can use it with confidence.

Who Is This For
The First-Time Retinol Starter: You want smooth, supple, fresh-looking skin with a gentle first retinol, but strong retinol products feel risky and can leave skin red, dry or unsettled. Searching for the right retinol cream is tiring, and it is not your fault that it is hard to choose. Our retinol cream gives you 0.1% stabilised pure retinol with vitamin E and panthenol in a light night cream. Your skin feels smooth, supple and comfortable each morning, with a fresh, healthy look, so one aluminium tube can steady your daily routine.
Product Story

It comes in a 20 mL tube that we pack carefully and ship directly from Japan so it reaches you in good condition and ready to use on the first evening.
What's Inside

Care Guide
Storage: Close the cap firmly after use and keep the tube in a cool place such as a fridge, away from direct sunlight and heat, and out of reach of children.
Shelf Life: We ship with a minimum of 6 months remaining shelf life.
Important: For external use only. Retinol can make skin sensitive, so start every other night, use sunscreen in the daytime and avoid the eye area. Do not use it on wounds, a rash or damaged skin. If you notice redness, swelling, itching or irritation, stop use and consult a dermatologist. The tube is aluminium, so the cream may squirt out the first time you open it. Do not use it during pregnancy. Keep it out of reach of children.
