Retinal night time skincare routine
This is my night time skincare routine on nights that I use retinal and retinol 🫡
💧 Step 1: SKIN1004 Probio-Cica Essence Toner – calming, hydrating base to prep my skin before actives.
🌿 Step 2: SKIN1004 Probio-Cica Barrier Serum – adds a cushion of moisture and strengthens the microbiome before retinal.
🌙 Step 3: The Ordinary 0.2% Retinal Emulsion – beginner-friendly retinal that smooths texture + boosts cell turnover without irritation.
👁️ Step 4: SOME BY MI Retinol Intense Eye Cream – targets fine lines while staying gentle around the eyes.
🧴 Step 5: SKIN1004 Probio-Cica Barrier Cream – seals everything in and reinforces barrier repair.
💦 Optional last layer: SoonJung Hydro Barrier Cream (for extra hydration when my skin feels dry).
I alternate my retinoid nights and always keep my focus on hydration + barrier care. Your skin can glow and stay calm 🌙✨
💡 Tips:
– Always apply on dry skin
– Sandwich your retinoid between hydrating layers
– Don’t forget SPF in the morning ☀️
