P.CALM RETINOLAGEN AMPOULE

A pore-firming ampoule powered by retinal and low-molecular collagen

If sagging, stretched-out pores are your concern, this one's for you. P.CALM RETINOLAGEN AMPOULE combines retinal—a next-generation ingredient more stable than retinol—with 285 Da low-molecular collagen to help deliver firming pore care that absorbs deep into skin. The hydration-rich texture sinks in effortlessly, leaving skin feeling plump and smooth without any heaviness. It's also a wrinkle-improving functional cosmetic officially reported to the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.

Pore improvement confirmed through clinical testing

In a clinical study conducted on 28 adults aged 30–59, pore area improved by 43.4% after just 7 days of use. The formula also demonstrated a 207.9% increase in collagen production in an in vitro test. Rated hypoallergenic in a skin patch test, it's a reassuring option even for those who've been hesitant about retinal.

Firming ingredient blend and who it's for

Beyond retinal and collagen, the formula includes a supporting cast of actives:

• 10% PHA (gentle exfoliating ingredient)
• Bakuchiol (plant-derived firming ingredient)
• PLLA (high-molecular conditioning ingredient)
• 0.1% Succinic Acid (skin balancing care)

It's ideal for those noticing loss of firmness and pore elasticity, anyone whose pores become more visible under makeup, or those seeking a hydrating ampoule that's gentle on skin. However, we recommend using it on its own rather than layering with high-concentration retinol products to avoid potential irritation. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult a healthcare professional before use.

After toner, before cream

Use after cleansing and toning, in the ampoule step before your moisturizer. If you layer with an essence or serum, apply products from lightest to heaviest—let the Retinolagen Ampoule absorb fully before moving on to the next step.

Safe for morning and evening use, but always follow with SPF during the day

Even though it contains retinal, you can use it in your morning routine. Just make sure to apply sunscreen as the final step of your daytime skincare. In your evening routine, the formula works even more effectively overnight when skin regeneration is at its peak.

Dispense a moderate amount and gently smooth over the entire face

Dispense 2–3 drops onto your palm and warm it slightly with your body heat. Gently pat it into areas where pores are a concern—like the cheeks and around the nose—then press the rest into your skin with your palms for seamless, hydrating absorption.

Routine pairings by skin concern

• For pores and firmness: Start with an exfoliating ampoule pad from the same line to refine texture, then follow with this ampoule.
• For dryness: Seal in moisture by finishing with a rich, hydrating cream after the ampoule.
• For dull, uneven skin tone: Pair with a niacinamide-infused toner to help support a more even, radiant complexion.

Precautions when using retinal

Avoid layering with high-strength retinol products to prevent irritation—if you're already using retinol, alternate between the two. If you're new to retinal, start with 2–3 times per week and monitor how your skin responds. Pregnant or nursing individuals should consult a healthcare professional before use. Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight, and discontinue use if redness or irritation occurs.
