Celimax The Vita-A Retinal Shot Tightening Dual Cream 50ml

Two creams in one tube. The Celimax The Vita-A Retinal Shot Tightening Dual Cream pairs a retinal-powered firming cream with a soothing panthenol cream, giving you anti-aging care and barrier comfort in a single night-time step.

One side contains 0.05% nano-encapsulated retinal, the advanced form of retinol, with 3% Matrixyl 3000 peptides to help smooth the look of fine lines and refine the look of enlarged pores. The other side holds 5% panthenol and azulene, which moisturise and calm the skin so retinal feels more comfortable to use. Celimax also adds its A-Shot™ micro-particles, designed to help the actives absorb more effectively.

The texture is smooth, rich and non-sticky, and it glides on to leave a lightweight, hydrating finish.

How to Use

Use in the evening after cleansing and toner or essence. Apply to the face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Follow the usage directions on the packaging for the two creams. If you are new to retinoids, start with 2-3 nights a week and increase gradually as your skin adapts. Patch test first. Apply sunscreen every morning, as retinal can increase sun sensitivity. If you are pregnant, nursing or treating a skin condition, check with your doctor before using retinoids.
