This silky, potent eye serum is designed for the delicate skin around your eyes, helping to smooth the appearance of fine lines and restore a look of vitality. Formulated with traditional Korean Hanbang ingredients and modern actives, it provides targeted care to diminish signs of fatigue and aging, making it an excellent choice for Mauritius' sunny and demanding climate.

Seeing the first signs of aging around your eyes can be disheartening, but you're not alone. This gentle yet effective serum is formulated to address exactly that, helping to restore a smoother, more youthful appearance.

• Best For: Individuals concerned with fine lines, crow's feet, loss of firmness, and dullness around the eye area.
• Key Benefits: Visibly smooths existing fine lines and helps prevent new ones. Deeply hydrates and nourishes the delicate eye contour. Revitalizes tired-looking eyes for a brighter, more awake appearance.
• Key Actives: 10% Ginseng Root Extract, 2% Retinal Liposome (stabilized Vitamin A derivative), Niacinamide, Peptides.
• Texture: A lightweight, nourishing yellow cream-serum that absorbs smoothly without a sticky or greasy feel.

1. Cleanse: Start with a clean base.
2. Apply Eye Serum: Gently pat a tiny amount around the orbital bone (see "How to Use" for specifics).
3. Protect/Moisturize: Follow with your daily sunscreen in the AM or a facial moisturiser in the PM to seal everything in.

Note: Already own a similar step? Finish that first to avoid waste (substitute, don’t stack).

While this serum can be used in the AM by experienced users, we recommend starting with PM-only use due to the retinal content. If you do use it in the morning:

• 1) Cleanser: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
• 2) Toner/Essence (Optional): Apply a hydrating toner to prep the skin.
• 3) Eye Serum: Gently apply the Revive Eye Serum.
• 4) Moisturiser (Optional): Apply a light moisturiser if your skin feels tight.
• 5) Sunscreen (Non-negotiable): Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. This is critical when using any retinoid product.

Wait Times: Wait 1-2 minutes after applying the eye serum before your moisturiser or sunscreen to prevent pilling.

The evening is the ideal time to use this serum as it allows the retinal to work with your skin's natural repair cycle without UV interference.

• 1) Double Cleanse: Start with an oil cleanser to melt away sunscreen and makeup, followed by a water-based cleanser.
• 2) Toner/Essence: Apply a hydrating toner or essence to damp skin.
• 3) Revive Eye Serum: Gently pat the serum around the orbital bone.
• 4) Moisturiser: Finish with a nourishing facial moisturiser to lock in hydration and support your skin barrier.

Texture Rule: Always apply products from the thinnest to the thickest consistency.

A little goes a long way with this potent formula. Proper application prevents irritation and milia (small white bumps).

• Amount: Dispense about half a grain of rice worth of product for EACH eye. Do not exceed a pea-size amount for both eyes combined.
• Apply to: The orbital bone (the bone around your eye socket). Do not apply directly on the mobile eyelid or too close to the lower lash line, as the product will naturally migrate.
• Method: Use your ring finger to gently tap (do not rub) the serum along the orbital bone, moving from the inner to the outer corner.
• Frequency (Important for Beginners):
  • Week 1-2: Use PM only, 2 times per week (e.g., Monday & Thursday).
  • Week 3-4: Increase to every other night if your skin shows no signs of irritation.
  • After 1 Month: You may increase to nightly use if your skin tolerates it well.

If-This / Then-That:

• If your skin feels dry or tight: Apply a layer of hydrating serum or moisturiser BEFORE the eye serum. This is called "buffering" and reduces the intensity of the retinal.
• If you see redness or peeling: Reduce the frequency back to twice a week and ensure you are using a good moisturiser.
• To avoid milia: Use the tiniest effective amount. Milia around the eyes are often caused by using products that are too rich or applying too much.

Makeup Tips (No Pilling):

• Wait at least 1-2 minutes for the serum to fully absorb before applying sunscreen or concealer.
• Gently tap your concealer on with a finger or sponge instead of swiping to avoid disturbing the serum layer underneath.

Safety: This product contains Retinal, a Vitamin A derivative. Avoid use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Always use sunscreen daily. Avoid using with other strong exfoliants (AHA/BHA) in the same routine, especially when starting out.

Because this serum contains Retinal, it's a strong active. Do not use it on the same night as other strong exfoliants like glycolic or salicylic acid, especially when your skin is not yet accustomed to it.

Example Starting Week (PM Focus):

• Monday: THIS PRODUCT (Retinal)
• Tuesday: Soothing/Hydrating Night (no strong actives)
• Wednesday: Exfoliating Acid (AHA/BHA), if you use one. Do NOT use the eye serum tonight.
• Thursday: THIS PRODUCT (Retinal)
• Friday: Soothing/Hydrating Night
• Saturday: Exfoliating Acid or Soothing Night
• Sunday: THIS PRODUCT (Retinal)

Rule of Thumb: One strong active per night. Listen to your skin and give it "rest nights" with only hydrating and calming products.

Patience and consistency are key, especially with an active ingredient like retinal.

• Immediate: The skin around the eyes feels hydrated, smooth, and nourished upon application.
• 2–4 Weeks: You may notice a subtle improvement in skin texture and plumpness. Some initial purging or dryness is possible as your skin adjusts; this should subside.
• 4–8 Weeks: The appearance of fine lines and crow's feet may begin to soften. The under-eye area can look brighter and more rested.
• 8+ Weeks: With consistent use, improvements in firmness and a more significant reduction in the appearance of wrinkles become more visible.

• Why this, not that DIY eye treatment: Applying things like lemon juice or harsh scrubs to the delicate eye area can cause severe irritation, micro-tears, and worsen hyperpigmentation. This serum uses lab-stabilized, evidence-based ingredients like Retinal, which is proven to be effective for wrinkles in a safe, controlled formulation.
• Why cosmetic retinal, not prescription Tretinoin (without guidance): While Tretinoin is a powerful prescription retinoid, it can be extremely irritating, especially around the eyes. This serum uses Retinal, which is a gentle yet highly effective cosmetic alternative that provides visible results with a much lower risk of the severe peeling and redness associated with prescription-strength products.

• Works Well With:
  • Hydrating Ingredients: Hyaluronic Acid, Snail Mucin, and Panthenol help to hydrate and soothe the skin, reducing potential dryness from the retinal.
  • Barrier-Supporting Ingredients: Ceramides and Cholesterol (both in this formula) help strengthen the skin barrier, increasing tolerance to the active.
  • Niacinamide: Also included in this formula, Niacinamide helps brighten and can further buffer the skin against irritation.
• Use with Caution:
  • Other Retinoids: Do not layer with other retinol or retinal products to avoid over-exfoliation and irritation.
  • AHAs & BHAs: Avoid using strong acids (like glycolic or salicylic acid toners/serums) in the same routine. Alternate nights to prevent compromising your skin barrier.
  • High-Concentration Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid): It's best to use Vitamin C in the morning and this retinal serum at night to avoid potential irritation from layering two potent, low-pH actives.

• Mature Skin: Excellent. Directly targets the primary concerns of aging skin like wrinkles and loss of firmness.
• Dry Skin: Very good. The nourishing, creamy texture provides moisture while the actives work on texture and lines. Ensure you follow with a good moisturiser.
• Combination & Oily Skin: Good. The formula is non-greasy and absorbs well. It can even be used on the entire face as a targeted anti-aging serum.
• Sensitive Skin: Use with caution. While formulated to be gentle, Retinal is still a potent active. A patch test is essential, and the slow introduction (buffering and starting twice a week) is non-negotiable.

• Fine lines and wrinkles (especially crow's feet)
• Loss of elasticity and firmness around the eye area
• Dull, tired-looking skin under the eyes
• Uneven skin texture

Key Actives Explained:

• Panax Ginseng Root Extract (10%): A revered Hanbang ingredient rich in saponins. It delivers deep, lasting hydration and is packed with antioxidants that help protect the skin from environmental stressors and revitalize its appearance.
• Retinal Liposome (2%): A stabilized form of Retinal, a potent Vitamin A derivative. Retinal works faster than Retinol to encourage skin cell turnover and stimulate collagen production, which helps to visibly smooth fine lines and wrinkles. The liposome technology delivers the active ingredient effectively while minimizing potential irritation. The actual concentration of active retinal is approximately 0.02%.
• Niacinamide: A form of Vitamin B3 that brightens the skin, helps fade the look of dark circles, and strengthens the skin barrier, making it more resilient.
• Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5: A peptide that helps to stimulate collagen production in the skin, improving firmness and elasticity over time.
• Ceramide NP & Cholesterol: Skin-identical lipids that are essential components of a healthy skin barrier. They help to lock in moisture and protect the delicate eye area from external irritants.

Who should use with caution:

• Individuals with extremely sensitive or reactive skin should introduce this product very slowly.
• Not recommended for use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding due to the Retinal content. Please consult your doctor.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a pea-sized amount to a clean, small area of skin, such as your jawline or behind the ear.
2. Wait 24-48 hours. If you experience any burning, itching, or a significant rash, do not use the product.
3. If no reaction occurs, you can proceed with using the product on your face, starting with a low frequency as recommended in the "How to Use" section.

Photosensitivity Warning: Retinoids like Retinal can increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun. Daily use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher is mandatory when using this product to prevent sun damage and protect your results.

• Texture: A silky, mid-weight cream-serum. It spreads easily and feels nourishing without being heavy.
• Finish: Absorbs into the skin leaving a smooth, comfortable, and slightly dewy finish. It is not sticky or greasy.
• pH: The pH of retinal products is typically formulated between 5.5 and 6.5 to ensure stability and efficacy while remaining gentle on the skin.
• Comedogenicity & FA-Safety: Contains Cetearyl Alcohol and Glyceryl Stearate which can be potential triggers for fungal acne in highly sensitive individuals, though the risk is generally low in a well-formulated product. Always patch test. Individual responses may vary.

• Issue: Minor redness, dryness, or peeling.
  Fix: This is a common sign of "retinization" as your skin adapts. Reduce use to 1-2 times per week. Apply a moisturiser before the eye serum (buffering) to reduce its intensity. The irritation should subside within a few weeks.
• Issue: Milia (small white bumps) appear.
  Fix: You are likely using too much product. Reduce the amount to half a grain of rice per eye and ensure you are tapping it only on the orbital bone, not close to the lash line.
• Issue: No visible results after 2 weeks.
  Fix: This is normal. Retinoids work at a cellular level and visible results for wrinkles typically take at least 4-8 weeks of consistent use. Be patient and continue with the routine. Ensure you are also using sunscreen daily, as UV exposure will counteract any progress.

• Humid Summer: The lightweight, non-greasy texture is perfect for Mauritius' humid weather and will not feel heavy or sticky. You may find you need only a very light facial moisturiser on top at night.
• Drier Winter/AC Exposure: In drier conditions or if you spend a lot of time in air conditioning, this serum provides excellent nourishment. Be sure to layer a good moisturiser over it to prevent any potential dryness from the retinal and lock in hydration.
• Sun Exposure: Given the high UV index in Mauritius, daily application of a high-SPF, broad-spectrum sunscreen is non-negotiable when using this product to protect your skin and the results.

• Packaging: Comes in a 30ml opaque plastic tube with a hygienic airless pump. This design protects the light- and air-sensitive Retinal from degrading, ensuring potency.
• Sustainability: The outer box is made of paper. Please recycle the box. The plastic tube can be cleaned and recycled where facilities exist in Mauritius.

• Travel: The 30ml size and secure pump make it travel-friendly.

Here’s a balanced summary of what real users are saying online (aggregated sentiment, not a guarantee of results):

"It's the first [retinoid] that's worked for me without any negative effects...What surprised me the most is how refreshed I look in the morning after using it at night. My skin looks like I got way more sleep than I actually did."

"I did notice some eye stinging early on, so I'm really careful to not apply too close to my eyes or too much product... I've worked up to be able to use this every night... my skin feels smoother, more moisturized, and plumper after I use it."

Fair Caveat: Some users report that retinal can be drying or cause temporary wrinkles if the skin barrier isn't properly supported with a good moisturiser. One user noted, "I also got wrinkles from this eye serum but I stopped it months ago and they're still there." This highlights the importance of starting slowly and always pairing retinoids with adequate hydration to avoid dehydration lines.

Beauty of Joseon creates modern skincare inspired by the timeless beauty secrets of women from the Korean Joseon Dynasty. Their philosophy is to enrich the skin using traditional Hanbang (Korean herbal medicine) ingredients like Ginseng, Rice Water, and Green Plum, combined with effective, modern active ingredients. They focus on creating gentle, clean formulations that improve skin health from within for a naturally radiant complexion.

• Retinal (Retinaldehyde): A form of Vitamin A that is one step closer to Retinoic Acid (the active form in the skin) than Retinol. It is known to be more potent than retinol but gentler than prescription tretinoin, making it highly effective for anti-aging.
• Ginseng: A root used for centuries in traditional Korean medicine (Hanbang). In skincare, it's a powerful antioxidant that helps to hydrate, revitalize, and protect the skin.
• Peptides: Short chains of amino acids that are the building blocks of proteins like collagen and elastin. In skincare, they act as messengers, signaling your skin to perform specific functions like building more collagen.
• MFDS: The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in South Korea. A "Functional Cosmetic" is a product certified by the MFDS to have specific effects, such as wrinkle improvement or skin brightening.
• PAO (Period After Opening): The symbol (an open jar with a number like "6M") that tells you how many months the product will remain stable and effective after it has been opened.

1. Can this serum cause milia?
Any rich eye cream can potentially contribute to milia if too much product is used. This serum is lightweight, but to minimize risk, use only a tiny amount (half a grain of rice per eye) and apply it to the orbital bone, not directly under the lash line.

2. Can I apply it on my eyelids?
It is generally not recommended to apply strong actives like retinal on the mobile eyelid. The product will naturally travel slightly as it absorbs. Stick to the orbital bone area to be safe.

3. How do I use this with my facial retinoid?
Do not use them at the same time. If you use a retinal or retinol serum on your face, you can either skip the eye serum on those nights or use a hydrating, non-retinoid eye cream instead to avoid overloading the delicate eye area.

4. Is it safe to use during pregnancy?
No. It is recommended to avoid all Vitamin A derivatives, including Retinal, during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Please consult your doctor for safe skincare alternatives during this time.
