VT Cica Reti-A Essence 0.1 - Retinol and Centella Asiatica Essence (30ml)
VT Cica Reti-A Essence 0.1 is a gentle, concentrated retinol essence formulated for daily use—even on sensitive skin. The combination of VT's proprietary CICAHYALON™ complex with Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR), Bakuchiol, and three types of Hyaluronic Acid provides visible anti-aging and pore-minimizing effects—without the irritation typical of classic retinol.
Why is it worth it?
• Allergy-tested and adapted for the needs of sensitive skin
• Lightweight, hydration-rich texture—absorbs quickly and leaves no stickiness
• Clinically proven to reduce pore visibility and smooth fine lines and wrinkles
• Gentle enough for safe, daily use
Key formula ingredients
• CICAHYALON™ — VT's proprietary complex combining Centella Asiatica with Hyaluronic Acid: soothes, calms, and deeply hydrates the skin
• Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR) — a new-generation retinoid that delivers renewal effects similar to retinol but with a significantly lower risk of irritation
• Bakuchiol — a plant-based retinol alternative that visibly improves the appearance of sagging skin and enlarged pores
• 3 types of Hyaluronic Acid — hyaluronates of different molecular weights penetrate various skin layers, replenishing moisture at every level
• LHA (Lipo-Hydroxy Acid) — supports pore care, gentle exfoliation, and skin texture equalization
Expected results
With regular use, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more even. Pores appear noticeably tighter, fine lines are reduced, and the complexion gains a healthier, more radiant look. The beginner-friendly 0.1% retinoid concentration makes it an ideal entry point into the world of retinol—or a daily, gentle option for experienced users seeking a low-irritation formula.
