If you want a high-performance anti-aging serum that works faster than traditional retinol yet remains gentle on the skin, K-SECRET SEOUL 1988 Advanced Shot Retinal Liposome 12% + Black Rice is one of the strongest yet skin-friendly retinal formulas in K-beauty. Powered by 12% Liposomal Retinal, this booster targets early to advanced signs of aging such as wrinkles, fine lines, dullness, texture issues and weakened elasticity.

Retinal (one step before Retinoic Acid) converts faster than retinol, giving quicker visible results with more firmness, smoother texture and refined pores. Because it’s encapsulated in liposomes, the retinal penetrates deeper while minimizing irritation. This makes it a powerful yet controlled anti-aging treatment even for sensitive or beginner users.

Black Rice Extract adds antioxidant protection, nourishes the skin, and enhances elasticity. It supports the retinal to strengthen the skin barrier and promote clearer, brighter, healthier-looking skin. The formula also includes balancing and soothing ingredients that reduce redness and dryness commonly associated with strong actives. The creamy-serum texture absorbs smoothly, leaving a soft, non-greasy feel.

With consistent use, the skin appears tighter, smoother, lifted and more radiant.
