For those of us overachievers always trying to preserve our skin’s most vibrant years, it takes a
little more than just sunscreen and not sweating the small stuff. Sometimes our skin needs a
little extra kick, and while retinol definitely gets the job done, it has a reputation for being the
whole boot factory as far as that’s concerned. We love retinol’s ability to mitigate signs of
premature (or timely) fine lines, loss of elasticity, and general dullness, while boosting skin’s
ability to care for itself. This powerhouse serum is our most deeply penetrating yet, with a
strategic team of 2.5% Encapsulated Retinaldehyde, skin density-building Monk’s Pepper, skin
matrix-repairing Crocus Chrysanthus Bulb Extract, and red algae & phospholipids. This serum’s
nourishing gel-oil emollient base (that fans of Galilee will appreciate) buffers our actives and
provides a moisturizing cushion to ward off irritation and dryness for your bounciest, firmest, and
most radiant skin yet.

PORE CONFESSION: You don’t have to start from the bottom, you can start from within.

KEY INGREDIENTS:

2.5% IconicA: A patented encapsulated form of Retinaldehyde that delivers the most
bioavailable form of Vitamin A in a transient bond for effective stability, preventing irritation and
dryness — retinol’s most known drawbacks — while working to diminish fine lines and wrinkles,
even skin tone, repair photo damage, and increase skin’s smoothness and bounce.
Vitex Agnus Castus Berry Extract (Monk’s Pepper): This hardworking ingredient does the
most to help visibly fade wrinkles, reduce inflammation, restore skin’s elasticity and density, and
build cushion into skin’s texture.
Phospholipids: These skin-identical lipids are highly moisturizing without being occlusive.
They pull water from the surrounding air and hoard it where hydration is needed — in your skin.
Crocus Chrysanthus Bulb Extract (DermCom): This extract helps stimulate communication
between skin cells, inducing the secretion of growth factors in keratinocytes that enhance the
synthesis of collagen and elastin to rejuvenate the skin matrix.
Chrondrus Crispus Extract: A red algae that contains fatty acids and phenols to maintain the
skin’s natural protective barrier. It also hydrates and defends skin against environmental
stressors with antioxidants, polysaccharides, peptides, and amino acids.
Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice: A natural anti-inflammatory plant extract that calms
as well as hydrates skin.
Glycerin: A plant-based humectant that attracts water to itself and helps slow down evaporation
of water from skin.
Sclerocarya Birrea (Marula) Seed Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Prunus
Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil: A trifecta of emollient, plant-based oils that offer vitamins A
and E as well as oleic and linoleic acids to protect and moisturize skin.
Squalane: A primary component within the sebum in your skin’s natural moisture barrier that
gradually decreases with age. This lipid moisturizes skin the way your skin knows best.

Use:
Start slowly with this one. For retinol newbies, limit use to twice a week at night, gradually upping frequency as your skin’s tolerance will allow. Mild redness, peeling, or irritation may occur when using this product at first.

Apply a thin layer to skin after cleansing and toning. Follow with Grand Amino Cushion Cream to seal in moisture. Always always always use daily sun protection.

Warning: External use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes.
