VT COSMETICS Cica Reti-A Cream 0.05% – retinoid cream for caring for pores and skin texture
VT COSMETICS Cica Reti-A Cream 0.05% is a face cream designed to care for the appearance of pores, uneven skin texture, and the first signs of aging. Its concept is to deliver a retinoid-focused approach in a comfortable cream format rather than a serum, while also supporting the skin’s moisture levels and comfort. The 0.05% in the name indicates the concentration of the retinoid form used in the formula, making it a clearly defined figure rather than merely a decorative number.
0.05% HPR – the retinoid focus in a cream texture
At the heart of the formula is 0.05% hydroxypinacolone retinoate, also known as HPR, combined with retinol and bakuchiol. This combination explains why the cream is focused on creating the appearance of smoother, more even-looking skin. The retinoid complex is complemented by a Cica-focused blend of Centella asiatica extract and four of its compounds, so the product is not simply an intensive active cream—it also retains an emollient base designed to support everyday comfort.
- Retinoid blend: HPR, retinol, and bakuchiol form the product’s functional foundation, designed to care for the appearance of skin texture and wrinkles.
- Cica components: Centella asiatica extract is complemented by madecassoside, madecassic acid, asiaticoside, and asiatic acid, linking the retinoid-focused formula with a comfortable skin feel.
- Moisture-supporting base: Glycerin, sodium hyaluronate, and niacinamide help give the cream a softening effect, while adenosine complements its smoothing purpose.
The cream has a richer yet easily spreadable texture: it does not feel like a heavy balm on the skin, absorbs fairly quickly, and leaves a soft, non-greasy finish. Thanks to this character, it fits naturally into an evening skincare routine after lighter, water-based products. It is a particularly considered choice for those who want to combine retinoid activity with the comfort of a true cream rather than relying solely on a lightweight serum texture.
Usage
Apply a small, pea-sized amount of VT COSMETICS Cica Reti-A Cream 0.05% onto clean and dry facial skin in the evening, gently massaging it in and avoiding the eye and lip area. Begin with using 2-3 times per week, and as your skin adapts, gradually increase the frequency. Since retinol increases skin sensitivity to the sun, it is very important to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) every morning.
