Dermatory Retinal Shot Firming & Repair Cream 30ml

Dermatory Retinal Shot Firming & Repair Cream is a Korean dermatologist-formulated anti-aging cream that delivers the performance of a clinical retinoid treatment with the gentleness of a daily moisturizer — making it the first retinal cream in DERMATORY’s Pro Vita-A Retinal Collection specifically engineered to care for both pore elasticity and deep-skin elasticity simultaneously. Formulated with 0.05% Retinal (500ppm) stabilized within a Liposome delivery system, this cream solves the longstanding challenge of retinoid skincare: maximizing anti-aging efficacy while completely minimizing the irritation, dryness & peeling that conventional retinol products often cause. Its signature soft-fit texture adheres closely to the skin upon application, providing an instant plumping, smoothing sensation — described as revealing “peeled-egg-like” skin smoothness — without stickiness or heaviness. Passed Skin Irritation Test & free from 20 potentially irritating ingredients. Suitable for all skin types including sensitive & first-time retinoid users.

Apply as the final moisturizing step in your PM skincare routine, after cleansing, toning & any treatment serums. Take an appropriate amount of cream and apply evenly across the entire face, gently tapping & pressing with the palms to encourage deeper absorption into the skin. Focus additional application on areas prone to fine lines, enlarged pores & loss of firmness. As a Retinal-containing formula, evening use is recommended to avoid UV interaction with the active — always follow morning application with a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen to protect skin and prevent UV-triggered pigmentation during retinoid use. For new retinoid users, begin with every other evening for the first 1–2 weeks to allow the skin to build tolerance, then progress to nightly use.

Retinal (Retinaldehyde, 500ppm) — encapsulated within a Liposome delivery system for stabilized, controlled release — is the cornerstone active of this formula and a direct precursor to Retinoic Acid (Tretinoin) in the Vitamin A conversion pathway. Unlike Retinol which requires two conversion steps to become active, Retinal requires only one — making it up to 11 times more potent than Retinol in stimulating collagen production, accelerating cell turnover, smoothing fine lines & firming pore walls, while still being significantly gentler & less irritating than prescription Retinoic Acid. The Liposome encapsulation further improves its stability & skin penetration, ensuring consistent, efficacious delivery deep into the dermis where collagen & elastin synthesis occurs. Bakuchiol — nature’s plant-based retinol alternative derived from Psoralea Corylifolia — works synergistically alongside Retinal to amplify anti-aging, firming & brightening benefits through a complementary, non-irritating biological pathway, making this formula exceptionally well-tolerated even on reactive skin. Hydrolyzed Collagen replenishes the skin’s structural protein matrix to visibly improve firmness, texture & bounce, while Niacinamide brightens overall skin tone & fades dark spots & freckles that accumulate with age & sun exposure. Chlorella Vulgaris Extract — a potent microalgae rich in chlorophyll, amino acids & antioxidants — protects against environmental aging & supports skin cell regeneration. Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Allantoin & Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate form a powerful anti-inflammatory trio that calms redness, soothes retinoid-associated sensitivity & maintains skin barrier comfort throughout use. Squalane & Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil deliver deeply nourishing, non-comedogenic moisture to keep skin supple & barrier-strong throughout the night.
