Anua Retinol 0.3% + Niacin Renewing Serum 30ml

Anua Retinol 0.3% + Niacin Renewing Serum 30ml

Product Overview A gentle-yet-effective beginner-to-intermediate retinol serum from Korea’s viral brand Anua. Combines 0.3% pure retinol with 5% niacinamide and a triple-peptide complex to deliver visible renewal—smoother texture, faded dark spots, refined pores, and firmer skin—without the typical irritation or peeling. The lightweight, non-sticky texture absorbs quickly and works well under makeup or sunscreen.

Perfect for those new to retinol or with sensitive/combination skin who want anti-aging benefits with minimal downtime.

Key Benefits

• Reduces fine lines & wrinkles (0.3% retinol + adenosine + peptides)
• Brightens & evens tone (5% niacinamide)
• Controls oil and minimizes enlarged pores
• Strengthens skin barrier and reduces redness (8 types of hyaluronic acid, ceramide NP, panthenol)
• Low-irritation formula with almost no purging for most users
• Improves overall skin elasticity and glow within 2–4 weeks

Texture & Finish Lightweight, slightly milky serum that spreads easily and sinks in within seconds. Leaves a natural, hydrated (not greasy) finish.
