Key actives
Adenosineactive
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated. On this cream's own ingredient list it is named twenty-first.
Allantoinactive
Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin. It is named twenty-second on this cream's list, alongside Adenosine.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8peptide
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is a six-amino-acid peptide used for the look of expression lines, particularly around the eyes. It is the peptide sold under the name Argireline and is water soluble and stable. The panel names it twentieth on this cream's list, beside Adenosine.
Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4peptide
Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 is the five-amino-acid peptide originally sold as Matrixyl. It is used for the look of fine lines and is one of the longest-standing cosmetic peptides. It is named forty-first on this cream's list, alongside Adenosine.
Carnosineantioxidant
Carnosine is a small peptide of two amino acids that acts as an antioxidant, particularly against the sugar-driven damage formulators call glycation. It is used for the look of dull, sallow skin. It is named twenty-fifth on this cream's list, alongside Adenosine.
How to use
- Take a small scoop of Extra-Firming Cream 50ml and warm it between your palms before pressing it into the face and neck as the last step of your routine.
Where does this cream go in my routine?
As the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. Anything thinner than a cream 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 Adenosine and not three changes at once.
Does this cream contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Fragrance. It sits on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this cream is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Adenosine?
Allantoin, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 and Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4. The order they are printed in on this cream's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Adenosine sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Carnosine, Ceramide NP and Collagen.

How it works
The Extra-Firming Cream is a 50ml cream, used as the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. The active it is built around is Adenosine, named twenty-first on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Allantoin, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 and Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Adenosine stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the cream format rather than by the list alone. BRTC sells this Adenosine cream in Korea, and this is that version.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this cream on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Adenosine on the list.
- This list names Fragrance, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.

Allantoin can tone down the dryness of the individual cells. It increases the water content of the skin, which means it helps to hydrate and moisturize.
Wilma Bergfeld, MDDermatologist, Cleveland Clinic In skin, different peptides can encourage different things, from collagen formation to a reduction in inflammation to helping with wound healing depending on their structure.
