How To Use:

Phase 1 — Skin Adaptation (First 1-2 Weeks)
Use 2–3 times per week during the initial adaptation period to allow your skin to adjust. Apply a small amount to the concerned area (approx. 0.1 ml per area).


Phase 2 — After Adaptation
After cleansing, gently refine skin texture with a toner or pad, then dispense an appropriate amount and gently massage over the face.
Once absorbed, finish with a moisturizing skincare product.

As your skin builds tolerance, frequency can be gradually increased to daily use or every other evening, depending on your skin condition.

TIP: For enhanced soothing care, use with Centella Soothing Cream.

A mild tingling sensation or temporary redness may occur immediately after application due to the spicule texture that supports ingredient absorption.
This is a normal skin response and typically calms within 1-2 hours as the skin adjusts.

If you are new to retinol or spicule-based products, begin with a lower frequency and adjust gradually according to your skin condition.


Recommended Care
✔ Patch test before first use
✔ Apply sunscreen as the final step of your morning routine
✔ Avoid use on irritated or damaged skin and contact with eyes or lips
✔ If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a professional
