Important Usage Tips

  • Start Slowly: Introduce retinol gradually to minimize irritation.
  • Avoid Combining with Acidic Products: Don’t use with high concentrations of vitamin C, AHA, or BHA.
  • Be Gentle: Avoid scrubs or devices that could irritate the skin.
  • Monitor for Irritation: If irritation occurs, reduce usage frequency or discontinue.
  • Protect from Light & Heat: Always store in a cool place and use sunscreen during the day.

CICA RETI-A Line

  • CICAHYALON™ Technology: Combines Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate with Bakuchiol for effective skin care.

Application Tip: During the essence stage, apply a pea-sized amount to your entire face, allowing it to fully absorb. Initial use may cause redness, stinging, or flaking—these are normal and will subside as your skin adapts.

  1. Zeynep – Istanbul, Turkey –

    Bu ürün harika. Ciltte anında pürüzsüzlük hissi veriyor. Kısa sürede olumlu sonuçlar aldım, özellikle lekelerimde azalma gördüm. Tekrar alacağım çünkü çok etkili.

  2. Meera – Bangalore, India –

    Cica Reti-A Essence is okay. It makes my skin smoother and helps with some fine lines. Texture feels a bit oily but absorbs quickly. The bottle’s small, so don’t expect it to last long if you use daily like I do.

  3. Clara Rodrigues from Lisbon, Portugal –

    Como pessoa sempre em busca de produtos para melhorar a textura da pele, encontrei no VT Cica Reti-A Essence uma verdadeira revelação. A fórmula rica com retinol puro teve um impacto significativo na minha rotina, oferecendo não só suavidade e viço à cútis como também promovendo melhorias visíveis nas linhas finas.

  4. Aurélio Guedes from São Paulo, Brasil –

    Uma verdadeira revolução na minha rotina de cuidados! Desde que usei o Cica Reti-A, percebi um brilho inexplicável no meu rosto. Além da redução nas rugas, minha pele ficou macia e luminosa. Simplesmente amei!
