SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Retinol 0.2 Boosting Shot Ampoule (30ml)

Retinol: One of skincare's most studied vitamin A derivatives, retinol helps to visibly improve the appearance of fine lines, skin texture and overall radiance with consistent use.

Retinal (Retinaldehyde): A closer precursor to retinoic acid than retinol, retinal is thought to work more efficiently while remaining suitable for use in leave-on cosmetic formulations. Together with retinol, it forms the core vitamin A complex in this ampoule.

Squalane: A lightweight, skin-identical lipid derived from plant sources, squalane helps to replenish and lock in moisture without feeling heavy or greasy, making it particularly well-suited to pairing with active ingredients.

Adenosine: A naturally occurring compound known for its ability to help skin appear firmer and smoother, and a popular ingredient in K-beauty formulations focused on visible skin quality.

Hippophae Rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) Fruit Extract: Rich in antioxidants, sea buckthorn extract helps to support the skin's appearance when it is exposed to environmental stressors.

Centella Asiatica Extract and Madecassoside: The signature complex running through SKIN1004's entire Madagascar Centella range. Centella Asiatica is widely known for its calming and soothing properties, and Madecassoside is one of its most active components, helping skin feel settled and comfortable.

Panthenol (Provitamin B5): A well-regarded humectant that helps attract and retain moisture, leaving skin feeling soft and comfortable to the touch.

Hydrogenated Lecithin: A phospholipid that helps to support the skin's natural barrier feel and aids in the smooth, even absorption of actives.

After cleansing and toning, treat your skin to this retinoid ampoule as a targeted step before moisturiser.


1. Dispense a few drops of the ampoule into clean palms or directly onto fingertips.

2. Apply evenly across the face, avoiding the immediate eye area.

3. Pat gently into the skin rather than rubbing to encourage absorption.

4. Follow with your usual moisturiser to help seal in the active and support your skin barrier.

5. Use in the evening, as retinoids can increase sensitivity to sunlight. Always apply SPF the following morning.


Caution: As with all retinoid-containing products, begin with less frequent use (two to three evenings per week) and build gradually as your skin acclimatises. Avoid use if pregnant or breastfeeding without seeking medical guidance first. Keep away from the eye contour. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
