## How it works

The Mandelic Acid Retinol Ampoule Serum is a 40ml ampoule, used after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. The active it is built around is Retinol, named eighth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Madecassic Acid, Asiaticoside and Asiatic Acid, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Retinol stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the ampoule format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the ampoule APLB sells in Korea, Retinol and all.

## How to use

1. Apply after toner and before moisturizer. Pat or smooth it over a cleansed face and let it absorb before the next step, AM and PM.

## FAQ

### Where does this ampoule go in my routine?

After toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. Anything thinner than an ampoule goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Retinol and not three changes at once.

### Is this the Korean-market ampoule or a US version?

The Korean-market one, Retinol and all. We match this ampoule to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.

### What else is on the list besides Retinol?

Madecassic Acid, Asiaticoside and Asiatic Acid. The order they are printed in on this ampoule's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Retinol sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Allantoin, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate and Mandelic Acid.
