Experience the power of Retinol with our beginner-friendly duo, designed to target early signs of aging and hyperpigmentation with minimal irritation. Featuring a gentle, slow-release formula, these skin-renewing serums promote a smoother, more radiant complexion. ​

The hero ingredient, Retinyl Acetate, a vitamin A derivative, supports skin cell turnover, helping to refine texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration. This slow-release Retinol was specifically chosen as a gentler anti-aging serum option. Infused with squalane, a powerful antioxidant, it delivers deep hydration, soothes the skin, and enhances smoothness. ​

Reviews Summary
Customers say this serum has a smooth, lightweight texture that absorbs quickly into skin. Many reviews mention its gentle nature, making it suitable for first-time users. The formula layers well with other products and doesn't feel sticky. Reviews frequently note visible improvements in skin texture and appearance with consistent use. While most users report positive experiences, some mention it can be runny in consistency. Common feedback includes the serum's easy application and comfortable feel on skin. Several reviewers appreciate the gradual approach, starting with twice-weekly use before increasing frequency. A few users note minimal results or breakouts, though these represent a small portion of experiences.

    Disappointed. Did nothing

    I've used this product for three months and built up to 4 times a week. There's no change to my skin. Still have the fine lines, no improvements to texture. Very disappointing.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback, Beth.

    We're truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience with our Retinol Serum. It's particularly troubling to hear that despite using the product consistently for three months and building up your usage appropriately, you haven't noticed any improvements to your fine lines or texture - this is absolutely not the experience we want any of our customers to have. We take product efficacy very seriously, and we'd love for you to reach out to our askINKEY Team, as we would greatly appreciate the opportunity to understand your experience further and explore how we can make this right for you 🖤
