Housed in a dual-chamber format, the Vita-A Retinal Shot Tightening Dual Cream delivers 0.05% Retinal in one chamber and a 5% Panthenol-rich soothing base in the other, so you get the tightening, pore-minimising power of vitamin A alongside the calming support that makes Retinal far more approachable for everyday use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormula 1 is where the real anti-ageing work happens. Retinal (Retinaldehyde) is one step closer to Retinoic Acid than Retinol, requiring fewer conversion steps to reach its active form in the skin, helping it appear firmer and more refined. Alongside 2% niacinamide to support an even-looking skin tone and 0.1% tocopherol for antioxidant support, this chamber also contains adenosine, ascorbic acid, and the peptide duo palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 to target the visible signs of ageing more broadly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormula 2 is built to soothe and support. Panthenol at 5% delivers deep comfort and moisture, Niacinamide at 2% adds brightening support, and Adenosine helps the skin look and feel calm after Retinal use. Together, the two formulas are designed to be applied in one go, cushioning the skin barrier while the active formula gets to work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture is a smooth cream that absorbs without heaviness. There is no added fragrance. This is an evening product, and a patch test is recommended for first-time Retinal users. Suitable for all skin types, particularly those concerned with visible ageing, pores and dullness and especially those new to vitamin A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIt's Skin Cupid approved because...\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual-chamber format is a genuinely clever solution to one of Retinal's biggest barriers: irritation. By packaging the active and its soother separately and combining them at point of application, Celimax has made a meaningful vitamin A cream that is thoughtfully formulated rather than just trend-chasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuited to normal skin types, particularly those new to Retinal and vitamin A actives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelivers 0.05% Retinal via a dual-chamber format that pairs the active with a calming, hydrating base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNiacinamide at 2% in both chambers supports the appearance of an even skin tone and minimises the look of pores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePanthenol at 5% in Formula 2 cushions and comforts the skin barrier alongside Retinal use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvening use only; follow with SPF the next morning\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CELIMAX","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":49255555367147,"sku":"CELI-MOI-VIT-50","price":28.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0267\/7676\/4606\/files\/BX_______50ml.png?v=1790166724","url":"https:\/\/www.skincupid.de\/products\/the-vita-a-retinal-shot-tightening-dual-cream-50ml","provider":"Skin Cupid","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
