BasicLab Dermocosmetics Esteticus Correcting Serum With Retinal 0.07% For Night Renewal 15 ml/ Expiry-30/11/2026

A lightweight corrective serum with 0.07% retinal, phytosphingosine, and Carnosine 2.0, designed for evening care of the face, neck, and décolleté. It delivers proven anti-wrinkle and anti-acne effects, visibly densifies the skin, and restores a youthful appearance. Retinal, a potent vitamin A derivative, also demonstrates antibacterial properties, helping to reduce imperfections and improve skin clarity.

Suitable for Skin With: Imperfections and comedones. Enlarged pores. Post-acne scarring. Post-inflammatory erythema (PIE), hyperpigmentation (PIH), and melasma. Loss of firmness and elasticity. First signs of aging or mature skin. Wrinkles and fine lines.

 

Key ingredients: 

• Action Stable retinal (0.07%) – the final precursor in the conversion pathway to retinoic acid (not permitted in cosmetics). It provides strong anti-aging and antibacterial action, reducing imperfections, minimizing pores, and visibly smoothing wrinkles. It improves elasticity and firmness while addressing discolorations. With low irritation potential, it can also be used on skin prone to rosacea.

• Vitamin C (3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid) – a stable, skin-penetrating form of vitamin C. It soothes micro-inflammations, reduces redness, brightens the complexion, and evens skin tone.

• Vitamin E (Tocopherol) & Coenzyme Q10 (Ubiquinone) – a powerful antioxidant duo that protects against free radicals, calms the skin, and slows down visible aging.

• Carnosine 2.0 – a next-generation, degradation-resistant form of carnosine, significantly more effective than L-carnosine. It improves skin firmness, protects against photoaging, brightens post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), and enhances overall skin tone.

• Phytosphingosine – a natural sphingoid base, component of ceramides, and potent anti-inflammatory factor. It reduces redness, irritation, and imperfections associated with acne while supporting barrier repair.

• Ceramides NP & AP – key components of the intercellular cement, strengthening the skin barrier and accelerating regeneration.

• Phospholipids – act as retinal carriers, stabilizing the molecule and reducing irritation risk

 

Results

• Reduced imperfections and breakouts.

• Diminished post-inflammatory erythema (PIE) and hyperpigmentation (PIH).

How to Use

Apply a small amount to cleansed, dry skin in the evening, avoiding the eye and lip area. Wash hands thoroughly after use. For first application, use the serum alone to test tolerance. Once tolerated, approximately 30–40 minutes after application, follow with a rich ceramide-based cream. Store in a cool, dry, and dark place. Period after opening (PAO): 6 months. Note: Packaging may display PAO 3M.

Following additional stability tests, this product is confirmed to remain effective for 6 months. Old packaging is still in use for sustainability reasons.

 

Retinal Treatment Protocol

Always begin with the lower concentration (e.g., 0.07%), whether starting for the first time or after a break.

Weeks 1–2: every 4th evening

Weeks 3–4: every 3rd evening

Weeks 5–6: every 2nd evening

At this stage, retinal serum is applied up to 4 times per week. Once well tolerated, you may progress to the higher strength 0.15% serum. Pause use for 3 days, then repeat the protocol with the stronger formula.

 

Warnings & Recommendations

Not suitable during pregnancy. During breastfeeding, consult a physician. Always use very high daily sun protection (SPF 50+) during treatment and avoid direct sun exposure. Discontinue retinal use 4 weeks before periods of intensive sun exposure. In the first weeks, redness, dryness, peeling, or irritation may occur as the skin builds tolerance. Support the skin with moisturizing, nourishing, and barrier-repairing products. Retinal’s natural yellow color may stain light fabrics (e.g., pillowcases). Protect bedding and wash stains with a remover if needed.

Dermatologically tested on sensitive skin. Fragrance-free. Hypoallergenic and vegan formula, designed to minimize risk of allergic reactions.
