Stiva A Peeling Cream Routine

Retinal and Acid Exfoliation in an Alternating Routine for Smoother Skin Texture

This is a routine set designed for alternating use of Stiva A Cream and AHA BHA Medi Cream. Stiva A Cream features 2.5% retinal stabilized through patented technology (Patent No. 10-2334706) and encapsulated in niosome capsules to resist breakdown from light and heat. As a dual-functional product for brightening and wrinkle improvement, it contains adenosine and niacinamide to help target dull skin tone and loss of firmness at the same time.

AHA BHA Medi Cream contains 7.5% of AHA (exfoliating agent), BHA (pore-clearing agent that dissolves buildup), PHA (gentle exfoliating agent), and LHA (sebum-regulating agent) to gently dissolve dead skin cells and pore-clogging sebum. It's a no-rinse formula that works without physical scrubbing, so you can refine your skin texture without worrying about irritation.

Gentle Formulas That Have Completed Low-Irritation Testing

Both products have completed skin irritation tests. Stiva A Cream has also passed sensitivity testing on sensitive skin, and AHA BHA Medi Cream has been verified as free from allergens designated by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. If you're new to retinal, start with a small amount every other evening for two weeks, then once your skin has adjusted, alternate with AHA BHA Cream for nightly use.

For Those Concerned with Uneven Texture and Makeup Adherence

• Skin prone to excess sebum that causes makeup to separate or pill
• Those whose foundation doesn't sit well due to bumpy skin texture
• Sensitive skin that experiences tightness or irritation from physical scrubs
• Anyone looking to address exfoliation, sebum control, and firmness in one simple routine

If using during the day, always apply sunscreen, and avoid using alongside high-concentration vitamin C or physical exfoliants. For extended retinal stability, store Stiva A Cream in a cool place between 3–10°C.

Use as the final step in your evening skincare routine

Apply Stiva A Cream after cleansing, toning, essence, and serum — in place of your regular night cream. It contains 2.5% retinal stabilized with niosome technology, designed to deliver active ingredients deep into the skin's texture. Paired with niacinamide for tone correction and adenosine for wrinkle improvement, it targets both brightening and anti-aging concerns at once.

Evening use only. Always follow with SPF the next morning

Due to the nature of retinal, use this cream only at night, and always apply sunscreen the following morning. Retinal can increase sun sensitivity, so daytime protection is essential. Apply sunscreen 15 to 20 minutes before going outside, and reapply every 2 to 3 hours if you're spending time outdoors.

Start small and monitor how your skin responds

For the first two weeks, use a millet seed-sized amount (about 2 mm) every other evening, applying a thin layer to areas of concern. From week three, if your skin has adjusted well, increase to a rice grain-sized amount (about 4 mm) and apply gently across the entire face every evening. Enriched with growth factors like EGF, FGF, and IGF, plus L-arginine, it also supports skin firmness.

Pairing tips by skin type

If you have dry or sensitive skin, apply a soothing cream with calming ingredients first, then layer a thin amount of Stiva A Cream on top. For combination skin prone to imbalance, apply sparingly on the T-zone and more generously on the cheeks and jawline to maintain equilibrium.

Ingredient compatibility and storage tips

• Avoid using high-concentration vitamin C, AHA or BHA products, or physical scrubs on the same evening. Alternate them on different nights instead
• Store in a cool place between 3 and 10 degrees Celsius to help maintain retinal stability
• If you experience stinging, redness, or tightness, reduce the amount and frequency of use. If symptoms persist, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist
