Dr. Althea Pure Retinol 0.15% Cream 20ml

Dr. Althea Pure Retinol 0.15% Cream is a carefully balanced nighttime treatment made for those starting their retinol journey or looking for a mild yet effective skin renewal step. Unlike stronger retinol formulas that can feel overwhelming, this cream focuses on steady improvement—helping refine texture, soften early fine lines, and support a clearer complexion with consistent use. The lightweight cream texture absorbs comfortably, making it easy to incorporate into a simple evening routine.

What makes Dr. Althea Pure Retinol 0.15% Cream stand out is its calming support system built around retinol. While retinol works on skin renewal and cell turnover, soothing ingredients help reduce dryness and sensitivity often associated with active treatments. Panthenol and hydrating agents support moisture balance, while botanical extracts help calm the skin during the adaptation phase. It works especially well when paired with Jumiso Snail Mucin 88 + Peptide Facial Cream for added recovery support.

Retinol (0.15%)

Retinol is a vitamin A derivative known for supporting skin cell turnover and improving fine lines, texture, and uneven tone. The 0.15% strength makes it suitable for beginners or sensitive users easing into retinoids.

Panthenol helps hydrate and soothe the skin while strengthening the moisture barrier. It reduces dryness and irritation commonly associated with retinol use.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide helps improve skin tone, reduce dullness, and support barrier function. It works well alongside retinol to enhance clarity and smoothness.

Centella Asiatica Extract

Centella asiatica is widely used for its calming properties. It helps reduce redness and supports skin recovery during active treatment routines.

Squalane

Squalane provides lightweight moisture without clogging pores. It helps maintain softness and comfort while using retinol.

Adenosine

Adenosine supports the appearance of smoother, firmer-looking skin and helps improve the look of fine lines over time.
