Description

VT Cica Reti-A Cream 0.05 contains 0.05% Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR), a new-generation retinoid derived from retinol, which stimulates cell renewal, improves skin texture, and helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and blemishes. Encapsulated, this retinoid is delivered more gradually, limiting the tingling and flaking often associated with retinol treatments.

The cream is enriched with the Cicahylon complex, which combines Centella Asiatica extract and three types of hyaluronic acids to soothe, hydrate, and support the skin barrier. Bakuchiol, niacinamide, adenosine, and hydrolyzed collagen complete the formula to simultaneously target wrinkles, dull complexion, visible pores, and loss of firmness.

Key active ingredients in the formula

  • Retinoid 0.05% (Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate + trace of Retinol): stimulates cell renewal, smooths fine lines, refines texture, and helps reduce blemishes and spots.

  • Centella Asiatica (Cica) & derivatives (asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid): calms irritation, supports skin repair, and strengthens the barrier, ideal for use with a retinoid.

  • Niacinamide: brightens the complexion, helps reduce hyperpigmentation, and regulates sebum production while strengthening the skin barrier.

  • Sodium Hyaluronate & 3 types of hyaluronic acids: intensely hydrate, keep skin plump, and reduce dryness associated with retinoid use.

  • Hydrolyzed Collagen: helps improve skin suppleness and texture.

  • Bakuchiol: a plant active with anti-aging effects similar to retinol, which enhances smoothing and brightening effects while remaining well-tolerated.

  • Adenosine: an anti-aging active that improves firmness and helps smooth wrinkles.

Instructions for use
  1. In the evening, after cleansing your face, applying your toner and a serum, take a small amount of Cica Reti-A Cream 0.05.​
  2. Gently spread the cream over your face, avoiding the eye and lip contour, then massage until fully absorbed.​
  3. Follow with a gentle moisturizer to seal in hydration and reduce the risk of dryness or irritation.​
  4. In the morning, always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen, as retinoids make the skin more sensitive to the sun.

If you are new to retinoids, start by applying it 1 to 2 evenings per week, then gradually increase the frequency according to your skin's tolerance.​
