Effects:

It promotes cell communication processes and substantially accelerates the forming of new, healthy skin cells. It also increases the synthesis of those key building blocks of the dermis (collagen and elastin) that make the skin look youthful. As a result, fine lines are smoothed, and even deep wrinkles are reduced. It visibly firms the skin and restores its lost volume. It also significantly improves the condition of oily, impure skin.

+ Enriched with high concentrations of ceramides, squalane and beta-glucan, it also strengthens the skin’s barrier and helps prevent it from drying out. The added hydra complex, identical to the skin’s natural moisturising factor (NMF), provides intensive and long-lasting skin moisturisation.

Result of use:

rejuvenated – visibly fresher, tighter and more radiant skin with significantly less wrinkles.

0.1% Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR)

HPR is a newcomer to the retinoid family, which has an effect similar to that of retinol, but with fewer or even none of its side effects. Causing much less irritation, it works fast and with impressive results. It is also more stable – it does not oxidise over time and remains highly effective.

What’s the secret? Its special form that is already biologically active, which is why the retinoid doesn’t need to undergo any interim conversions to be effective (unlike retinyl esters, retinol and retinal). HPR is an ester of retinoic acid that binds directly to retinoid receptors as soon as it has been applied and begins its remarkable action.

It accelerates the natural process of skin cell regeneration and increases the synthesis of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. This improves the quality of the dermis, increases the thickness of the epidermis and strengthens the skin's natural protective barrier. Wrinkles are significantly reduced, and the skin tone is visibly improved. It also balances excessive secretion of sebum, reduces enlarged pores and decreases new spots.

Skin-identical concentrate of ceramides: I, III and VI

Ceramides are natural building blocks of the skin’s protective barrier that help prevent excessive transepidermal water loss and protect the skin against UV rays, pollutants, microorganisms and other external factors. Being skin-identical ingredients, ceramides are suitable for the care of all types of skin, including the most sensitive, and are essential for dry, very dry and mature skin.

Squalane

Squalane is a derivative of squalene – a natural component of the sebum in our skin, the production of which decreases with age. It is produced from natural plant sources and has a highly hydrating effect. It absorbs extremely well into the skin and leaves no oily residue. It is non-comedogenic, which makes it ideal for all skin types, including combination to oily skin.  It protects the skin against harmful external factors, strengthens its natural lipid barrier and has a soothing effect.

Beta-glucan

Produced from oats, this polysaccharide acts as a powerful stimulant of skin cell renewal. It stimulates cell division and the regeneration of damaged cells. It also has a moisturising effect and helps prevent skin dryness. In medicine, it is used to heal wounds and smooth scars.

Hydra complex, identical to skin’s natural moisturising factor (NMF)

It has an instant and prolonged moisturising effect that can last for hours after application. As part of the hydro-lipid layer, it strengthens the skin’s natural protective function and helps prevent dryness.

WARNINGS

  • Use the product only on healthy, undamaged skin.
  • Slight to moderate redness, tingling, a sensation of warmth and temporarily increased skin sensitivity are expected reactions that indicate the retinoid is working.
  • After use, the condition of oily, impure skin may at first get worse – this is a normal reaction and results from intensive skin cleansing, which leads to the desired results upon further product use.

THE PRODUCT IS NOT SUITABLE:

  • during pregnancy and breastfeeding or while taking food supplements/medicines that contain other retinoids;
  • for very sensitive skin, thin skin and skin with a weakened protective barrier;
  • in the event of psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and other skin conditions;
  • during greater sun exposure (during a summer vacation or by people who perform most of their work outside, in the sun).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Hypersensitivity test

Do the hypersensitivity test before beginning to use the product. Apply a small amount of the product to the clean skin on the inner side of your forearm. If no unexpected reactions occur within 24 hours, you may begin using the product. Otherwise – in the event of extremely bright redness, itchiness, tingling, stinging sensations and/or raised skin bumps – immediately rinse the product off and do not use it.

Gradual introduction to the care routine

Introduce the product into your care routine gradually so that the skin can get used to it and develop a good tolerance.

Weeks 1 and 2
Begin using the product twice weekly.

Weeks 3 and 4
If the skin appears to tolerate the product well, you may begin using it three times a week.

Week 5 and subsequently
If the skin tolerates the product well, you may use it four times a week.

In the long run, use the product as often (one to four times a week) as it suits your skin, provided it tolerates it without any unwanted side effects.

In the event of intense reactions (intense redness, stinging sensation, tingling, significantly increased skin sensitivity, peeling), either stop using the product or use it less frequently (e.g., go from using it three times a week to two times a week, and continue this regime until your skin gets used to the product).

One-time application amount

When it comes to using retinoids, the “less is more” rule applies. Use around 1 full pipette of the product for a one-time application on your face.

Only evening care, from September to May

The use of retinoids can cause temporarily increased sensitivity of the skin to sunlight. The product is therefore only suitable for evening care. We recommend using it from September to May. Apply the product to the thoroughly cleansed and toned skin of the face. Never apply it in the morning and/or during the day. We advise against using the product in the summer months.

Mandatory UV protection

While using the product and for a minimum of three weeks after, be sure to protect your skin during the day with a high SPF product. We recommend using Protective Cream SPF 30 or Protective Fluid with Peptides SPF 30.

Areas to which the product shouldn’t be applied

Do not apply the product around the eyes, lips and nose. Protect these parts with a nourishing, occlusive cream of your choice as necessary (for users just starting with the cream and users with sensitive skin).

Consistent use

The product provides optimal results only if used in line with the instructions and over an extended period of time, for at least three months.

Suitable supporting care

Inadvisable combinations

  • Do not use the product in combination with other retinoids or other powerful active ingredients: AHA and BHA acids, vitamin C (l-ascorbic acid)*.
  • Do not use any peels/scrubs while using the product.

*The product may be used in combination with new-generation vitamin C: Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate, which is incorporated in the C10 Vitamin Super Shot.

To achieve the best rejuvenation results, use Next Generation Retinol Shot in combination with Bakuchiol Phyto Retinol Shot.

These two products complement each other perfectly, and provide exceptional results in synergy.

  1. First, gradually introduce Retinol Shot into your care routine.
  1. After about a month (when the skin gets used to the product and develops a good tolerance), begin using Bakuchiol Shot.
  1. Apply Bakuchiol Shot every morning and evening, except on those evenings when you’re applying Retinol Shot (two to four times a week). The latter requires stand-alone application.
