Why HANA loves this product

We're so impressed by this potent blend of advanced science and traditional wisdom in the KSECRET Seoul 1988 Serum. It cleverly combines 2% Retinal in a liposome form, designed for effective delivery and a gentler experience. Featuring a significant 58% Black Ginseng extract, this serum is revered for its antioxidant and revitalising properties which works to smooth texture, enhance firmness, and bring back a youthful radiance. While powerful, it's formulated without common irritants, offering a considered choice for those looking to incorporate effective anti-aging actives into their nightly routine.

Note: Do not use this product, or any product in the retinoid family, if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.

Star ingredients
  • Retinal : Next in line for the crown after tretinoin in the retinoid kingdom. Works on the skin at a cellular level, making your skin cells behave in a healthy and normal way. It decreases wrinkles, and enables smoother, firmer and elastic skin.
  • Panax Ginseng Root Extract : Full of antioxidant compounds. Enhances skin barrier health and improves circulation, aiding in the repair for stressed skin!
  • Bakuchiol : A plant-derived antioxidant often considered a natural alternative to retinol, Bakuchiol helps improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and soothe the skin.
  • Niacinamide (also known as Vitamin B3): Helps your skin produce more collagen and important proteins like keratin, filaggrin, and involucrin. At HANA, we love niacinamide because it’s known to improve skin structure, the appearance of wrinkles, and lighten hyperpigmentation.

Directions for use

For night-time use only. After cleansing and toning, apply a pea-sized amount of serum to dry skin. Gently massage over your entire face and neck until fully absorbed. Always follow with a good moisturiser to support skin hydration. It is crucial to use SPF 30+ sunscreen every morning when using this product.

Note: Do not use this product, or any product in the retinoid family, if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.

Pro tip: If you’re new to Retinal, introduce it slowly! Start by using the serum 2-3 times a week for the first couple of weeks, then gradually increase to every other night, and then nightly if your skin tolerates it well. You can also try the "sandwich method": apply a light moisturiser, then the retinal serum, followed by a richer moisturiser to buffer potential irritation. Always use SPF 30+ daily when using this product, and avoid use if pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
