The 0.1 version pairs hydroxypinacolone retinoate with centella, niacinamide, bakuchiol and moisturizing ingredients in a 30mL pump bottle. It is a leave-on treatment for the essence stage of your routine, rather than a cleanser or a Reedle Shot formula. The smooth texture spreads easily, adding targeted care without the weight of a thick finishing cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVT Retinoid Essence 101\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA facial essence is a leave-on skincare step used after cleansing and before a finishing moisturizer. Unlike a rinse-off mask, it stays on the skin, so a small amount can be spread over the face or the areas identified in the product directions. A retinoid essence is introduced gradually rather than layered generously from the first application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Cica Reti-A version combines 0.1% hydroxypinacolone retinoate with a centella-based ingredient blend and sodium hyaluronate. Hydroxypinacolone retinoate is a retinoid; the number should not be read as the concentration of pure retinol. Retinol also appears separately in the ingredient list. Choose this exact strength deliberately rather than treating all three essences as interchangeable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA defined retinoid strength with centella and moisturizing care\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 0.1 essence combines targeted retinoid care with a light, conditioning base. Its ingredient profile brings together texture-focused ingredients and moisture-supporting components, while the compact pump format keeps application straightforward.
