IngredientWhat it isWhat it does for skin
RetinolA form of vitamin A used in skincare that skin converts into the active retinoic acid.Supports skin renewal and visibly smooths fine lines and uneven tone with consistent use; it is among the most studied topical anti-aging ingredients.Note: Can cause dryness, peeling or sensitivity, especially when starting. Best used at night with daily sunscreen, and generally avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Tripeptide-1A short peptide of three amino acids (GHK) that also occurs naturally in the body.Used as a skin-conditioning peptide that supports the look of firmer, smoother skin; evidence is mostly from small studies.
Copper tripeptide-1A short peptide (GHK) bound to copper, studied in skin-repair and wound-healing research.Used as a skin-conditioning peptide that supports the look of firmer, smoother skin; most of the evidence comes from small studies.
PanthenolPro-vitamin B5, which converts to pantothenic acid once absorbed into skin.Hydrates as a humectant, supports wound healing, and has anti-inflammatory, soothing effects on irritated skin.
AdenosineA compound naturally present in skin cells, used in skincare as an anti-aging active.Recognized by South Korea's MFDS as a functional anti-wrinkle ingredient at 0.04% concentration, based on clinical studies showing measurable fine-line improvement; a real but modest effect, not a retinoid substitute.
AllantoinA soothing compound, naturally occurring in some plants and also made synthetically.Calms irritation and supports skin healing, often paired with other barrier-focused ingredients.
TocopherolThe chemical name for vitamin E as typically used in skincare formulas.Helps neutralize free radicals from UV and pollution exposure and supports the skin's moisture barrier.
GlycerinA humectant naturally present in skin, one of the most well-established moisturizing ingredients.Draws water into the skin's outer layer, helping maintain hydration and support the barrier.
