ISDIN Isdinceutics® Retinal Eye Serum
ISDINCEUTICS® Retinal Eye Serum
A dual-phase eye serum built to address all five signs of eye aging in one formula, without the usual retinoid trade-off.
This targeted eye serum combines retinaldehyde, bakuchiol, and LiftExtract in its rejuvenating phase, working to address wrinkles, bags, dark circles, loss of firmness, and dullness: the five key signs of aging specific to the eye area. Melatonin and niacinamide sit in the soothing phase, minimizing the dryness that would otherwise limit how much retinaldehyde a delicate eye area could tolerate. The two phases mix only at the moment of application, preserving the renewing power of the retinaldehyde while keeping the formula gentle enough for consistent use around the eyes.
Why it works: The eye area is thinner and more reactive than the rest of the face, which is why most retinoid-based treatments either avoid it entirely or use a diluted formula that does less. Separating the active and soothing phases means this serum can use a genuinely effective concentration of retinaldehyde and still stay gentle enough for daily use around the eyes, treating all five signs of eye aging at once rather than picking one and hoping it's the one that matters most.
How to use it:
- Dispense the product and mix both phases until a uniform texture is achieved.
- Apply gently around the eye contour, avoiding direct contact with the eye.
- Use at night as part of your routine, easing in gradually if new to retinoids.
- Follow every morning with a broad spectrum sunscreen.
The worth//vitality promise
We chose this serum because the eye area is usually where retinoid treatments get watered down or skipped altogether, and this one doesn't take that shortcut. Addressing all five signs of eye aging with a genuinely active retinaldehyde, kept tolerable through the dual-phase soothing system, is exactly the kind of formulation depth we look for before a targeted product earns its place in the lineup.
