HOW TO USE
Details

This serum combines the power of two retinoids: retinol and HPR*. Retinol is encapsulated in liposomes, which ensures better absorption into the skin and increased effectiveness. HPR is a more stable retinoid and can directly bind to the vitamin A receptor. This is combined with synergetic anti-aging ingredients such as niacinamide and coenzyme Q10. Together, these substances provide a comprehensive solution for visible signs of skin aging, allowing users to notice significant improvements in skin texture, fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, and elasticity.

In addition, these active ingredients are enriched with soothing and restorative components such as squalane, bisabolol, and ceramides, which help minimize irritation. As a result, you can fully benefit from the transformative power of retinoids in your skincare routine.

The "Fill Me Up" serum is particularly suitable for individuals who are new to using retinoids. This carefully crafted formulation is designed to promote a youthful, radiant complexion without sacrificing your skin's comfort. The lightweight cream absorbs quickly, allowing your skin to optimally benefit from the powerful ingredients.

The serum contains 0,16% retinoids (0,06% retinol and 0,1% HPR).

* HPR = hydroxypinacolone retinoate, a new generation retinoid with decreased irritation and enhanced stability and efficacy.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Begin Slowly: Start by applying your retinoid serum 2-3 times a week at night, allowing your skin time to adapt.
  2. Pea-Sized Amount: Use only a pea-sized amount, applying it evenly to clean, dry skin. This is one pump. 
  3. Build Gradually: As your skin becomes more tolerant, you can increase the frequency of use, working up to nightly application if tolerated.
  4. Always Use Sunscreen the day after: Since retinoids can increase sun sensitivity, apply SPF daily, even on days when you’re not using the serum.

Not suitable for irritated skins, nor women in pregnancy or lactation.

Key ingredients

Encapsulated retinol

Encapsulated retinol in nanoliposomes enhances effectiveness and comfort while minimizing irritation. As a powerful derivative of vitamin A, retinol promotes cellular turnover, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making it a popular choice for anti-aging skincare. It also improves skin texture and tone by sloughing off dead skin cells and encouraging the growth of new cells, while enhancing collagen production for firmer, more youthful skin. Compared to other retinoids, retinol is milder, suitable for various skin types, and provides impactful results. The nanoliposomes ensure deeper penetration, protect the active ingredient from degradation, reduce irritation through controlled release, and offer consistent benefits over time.

Hydroxypinacolone retinoate (HPR)

Hydroxypinacolone retinoate (HPR), also known as Granactive Retinoid, is an advanced retinoid that binds directly to the skin's retinoid receptors, providing immediate retinoic effects without the need for metabolic conversion. It offers reduced irritation compared to traditional retinol, making it gentler on the skin. Additionally, HPR is known for its enhanced stability and efficacy, effectively reducing fine lines, age spots, and rough skin texture for a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3)

Niacinamide is a versatile skincare ingredient that offers benefits for all skin types. It significantly enhances skin barrier function, improves elasticity, and evens out skin tone. By strengthening the skin barrier, niacinamide helps lock in moisture and prevent dryness. It diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for a smoother complexion, while also effectively reducing redness and acne-related inflammation. Its broad-ranging benefits make niacinamide an ideal addition to any skincare routine, catering to diverse skin concerns and types.

Coenzyme Q10

Coenzyme Q10, or CoQ10, is a powerful antioxidant that plays a vital role in protecting skin cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. This versatile ingredient supports cellular energy production and overall skin function, helping to maintain healthy, vibrant skin. CoQ10 also aids in improving skin elasticity and firmness, promoting a more youthful appearance. Additionally, it provides protection against UV damage and photoaging, making it an essential component in a comprehensive skincare routine that addresses the signs of aging.

Squalane

Squalane is a lightweight, non-comedogenic oil derived from olive oil that mimics the natural oils of the skin, making it suitable for all skin types. This versatile ingredient deeply hydrates and locks in moisture, ensuring your skin remains soft and supple. Squalane also calms irritation and promotes healing, making it an excellent choice for sensitive or damaged skin. Additionally, it provides a protective barrier against moisture loss, helping to maintain overall skin health and resilience, making it a valuable addition to any skincare routine.

Alpha-bisabolol

Alpha-bisabolol is a soothing agent derived from chamomile, renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties, making it suitable for all skin types. This gentle ingredient calms sensitive skin and reduces redness, providing relief for irritated complexions. Bisabolol also promotes healing, enhancing the overall user experience by ensuring a gentle touch during application. It complements other active ingredients in our formulations, allowing for effective results without discomfort, making it an essential component of any soothing skincare routine.

ceramides

Ceramides are essential lipids that play a crucial role in reinforcing the skin's natural barrier, making them vital for all skin types. These protective molecules lock in moisture and protect the skin against environmental aggressors, helping to maintain hydration. Ceramides restore and strengthen the skin barrier, reducing sensitivity and improving overall skin resilience. Additionally, they enhance the effectiveness of active ingredients in skincare formulations, ensuring optimal skin health and making them an indispensable component of any skincare routine.

Tocopherol (vitamin E)

Tocopherol, or Vitamin E, is a powerful antioxidant essential for promoting skin health. It protects the skin from oxidative stress caused by free radicals, helping to prevent premature aging. Tocopherol also provides deep hydration by locking in moisture, keeping the skin supple and soft. Additionally, its anti-inflammatory properties soothe irritation and promote healing. By enhancing the efficacy of other active ingredients in formulations, tocopherol is a valuable addition to any skincare regimen focused on maintaining healthy, radiant skin.

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is a powerful humectant known for its remarkable ability to retain moisture, making it essential for maintaining skin hydration. This naturally occurring substance can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, helping to plump and hydrate the skin for a youthful appearance. Hyaluronic acid also supports skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By drawing moisture into the skin and keeping it there, hyaluronic acid is a must-have ingredient in any skincare routine focused on hydration and overall skin health.

Australian tea tree oil

Australian tea tree oil is a powerful essential oil renowned for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It effectively combats acne by reducing bacteria and minimizing inflammation, while also promoting healing and soothing irritated skin. Its antiseptic qualities help protect against potential infections, making it a valuable ingredient for maintaining clear and healthy skin. Suitable for various skin types, Australian tea tree oil is an excellent addition to any skincare routine focused on calming and improving overall skin health.
