Review: My favorite retinal serum!! - I love this serum! I’ve struggled with using retinal and retinol products due to drying out and some irritation, but this serum is both moisturizing and pairs well with moisturizers / hydrators and is gentle on my skin while also being very effective. My skin looks and feels great, and I’m just thrilled to be able to successfully use a retinal product routinely since it’s so valuable for anti-aging. There’s a light, pleasant scent and it absorbs & layers flawlessly. There no tackiness and leaves skin soft. Love it so much I have a subscription.
Review: Affordable beauty - Combination skin/ non- sensitive, currently living in cool wet climate. I have been using this product for 6+ months and I’m completely obsessed with it!! Was recommended to me by an influencer who struggles with sensitive acne prone skin if that info helps! I’ve noticed my skin has never felt smoother since using it. Seems like my fine lines in my t-zone have reduced and my smile lines too!! I use it every night. After toning with all natural witch hazel I pair with gentle moisturizer for sensitive skin and that’s it. Doesn’t have a strong smell and product melts into your skin.

## Features

- FORMULATED WITH ADVANCED RETINAL & LIPOSOME DELIVERY SYSTEM: Our formula applies a liposome delivery system to Retinal, the next-generation form of Retinol that works up to 11 times faster. This technology enhances ingredient stability and boosts absorption for more visible results.
- INFUSED WITH RETINAL LIPOSOME 2%: helps reduce the look of fine lines, uneven skin tone, and rough texture for smoother, more radiant skin.
- RETINAL BOOSTING COMPLEX: Powered by Black Ginseng Extract, Bakuchiol, 3 Peptides, and Niacinamide, this antioxidant-rich formula refines pores, smooths skin texture, and promotes a more balanced complexion.
- RETINAL USAGE TIP: 1. Nighttime use is recommended, as Retinal may oxidize when exposed to sunlight. If used during the daytime, make sure to follow with sunscreen. 2. To build Retinal tolerance, start by using it twice a week during the first 1–2 weeks, then gradually increase frequency as your skin adjusts.
- HOW TO USE: 1. After cleansing and toning, apply an appropriate amount evenly over the face and neck. 2. Gently massage until fully absorbed, then follow with a moisturizer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome !!!
*by D***E on August 26, 2025*

K Secret Retinal Serum has officially earned a spot in my nighttime routine. Unlike some retinal products that feel heavy or irritating, this one goes on silky smooth, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave my skin feeling tight. After a few weeks of consistent use, I noticed my skin looking brighter, smoother, and more even-toned. Fine lines around my eyes and forehead started to soften, and my overall texture feels more refined. It gives results without the harsh side effects—no flaking or redness, just a gentle but effective boost. I also appreciate the thoughtful formula: it’s lightweight, layered well under moisturizer, and didn’t clog my pores. The pump packaging makes it easy to use the right amount without waste. If you’re looking for a retinal serum that delivers visible results while still being kind to sensitive skin, this is definitely worth trying.
