Celimax's 0.1% Retinal Shot works in roughly half the time of traditional retinol — with a fraction of the redness, flaking, and weeks-long "purge" phase.
Weeks of redness and flaking before any real payoff
Months of "building tolerance" just to be able to use it
That tight, raw, sandpaper feeling every morning
Quitting right before you'd finally have seen the glow
There's a reason dermatologists in Seoul reach for retinal first.
Retinaldehyde needs one less conversion step in your skin than retinol to become active — which is the science behind why it tends to act faster, with less drama.
Refines bumps and rough patches for that smooth, blurred-pore look.
Helps soften the look of expression lines with consistent nightly use.
Targets dark spots and dullness for a more even-looking complexion.
Visibly minimizes the look of enlarged pores over time.
Supports a plumper, more resilient-looking skin texture.
Formulated to work without overwhelming your skin barrier.
0.1% retinaldehyde sits at the clinically-favored sweet spot — strong enough to drive visible change, gentle enough to use every night without the drama.
Supports a firmer, more resilient-looking skin texture.
Helps brighten and even out the look of skin tone.
A calming K-beauty staple that helps soothe skin as retinal works.
Start on a clean, completely dry face — retinal works best without water in the mix.
Smooth onto face and neck at night, avoiding the eye area. Start 2–3x a week, then build up.
Follow with a moisturizer at night. Every morning after, SPF 30+ is non-negotiable.
Visible improvement in skin texture and overall tone.
A more even, radiant look with reduced dullness.
A calmer, more refined complexion over consistent use.

"I switched from a drugstore retinol that left me peeling for a month straight. Zero flaking with this one, and I saw results faster."
"My derm recommended retinaldehyde over retinol and this was the first one I tried. My texture and pores look so much better."
"Finally a retinoid my sensitive skin doesn't hate. I pair it with vitamin C in the morning and this every night."

0.1% retinaldehyde is generally considered gentler than equivalent-strength retinol. We still recommend starting 2–3 nights a week and patch testing before your first full application.
Yes, but not at the same time. Use vitamin C and exfoliating acids in the morning, and save your Retinal Shot for nighttime to avoid overloading your barrier.
Most customers notice smoother texture within 2–4 weeks of consistent nightly use, with more visible changes to tone and fine lines by week 8.
