Benefits:
- Multi-correction anti-aging care: Retinol, Vitamin C and Vitamin E work together to soften the look of fine lines, improve skin texture and support a firmer, smoother appearance.
- Brightens and evens tone: Ascorbic Acid and sea buckthorn (Hippophae Rhamnoides) help visibly boost radiance and reduce the look of uneven tone and post-blemish marks.
- Centella-soothing hydration: 28.1% Centella Asiatica Extract plus a Centella 3x complex replenish moisture and comfort skin that’s easily sensitised by the environment.
- Gentle retinol delivery: Encapsulation technology helps protect retinol and support a more gradual release so active ingredients can absorb effectively with less potential for irritation.
- Barrier-supporting moisture: Beta-Glucan, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Sodium Hyaluronate and Panthenol help skin feel plump, cushioned and less tight.
- Skin-friendly formula: Mildly acidic pH, fragrance-free and made with mainly low-irritation grade ingredients to suit a wide range of skin types exploring Korean cosmetics.

How to Use:
- In the evening, after cleansing and toning, apply a small amount of APLB Retinol Vitamin C Vitamin E Ampoule Serum to the face, avoiding the immediate eye and lip area.
- Gently spread and pat until absorbed, then follow with a nourishing moisturiser to lock in hydration and minimise potential dryness.
- Start 2–3 nights per week and increase frequency as skin tolerates. Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen in the morning when using retinol-based products.

FAQ:
Q: Is APLB Retinol Vitamin C Vitamin E Ampoule Serum suitable for sensitive skin?
A: The formula is mildly acidic, fragrance-free and rich in Centella, Beta-Glucan and Panthenol to help comfort skin. However, because it contains retinol and Vitamin C, sensitive skin should introduce it slowly and patch test first.
Q: Can I use this serum every night?
A: Start with 2–3 nights per week to build tolerance. If your skin feels comfortable (no persistent redness, burning or flaking), you can gradually increase to nightly use as part of your Korean anti-age routine.
Q: Can I layer it with other acids or strong actives?
A: To minimise irritation, avoid using this serum on the same night as strong exfoliating acids or other high-strength retinoids. You can alternate nights or keep the rest of your routine very gentle and hydrating.
Q: Is it safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
A: This ampoule contains retinol. If you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using retinol-based products.
Q: Do I need sunscreen if I only use it at night?
A: Yes. Retinol and Vitamin C can make skin more sensitive to UV exposure, so a broad-spectrum sunscreen every morning is essential to protect results and help prevent further photoaging.
