Key actives

RetinolPosition 36 of 61 ingredients on this row's own list

Retinol is a retinoid ingredient with a long clinical record, and Korean formulation typically wraps it in stabilizing bases like this one to keep it usable for a daily routine.

NiacinamidePosition 4 of 61 ingredients on this row's own list

Niacinamide is one of the most established multi-tasking actives in Korean formulation, valued for supporting an even, calm-looking tone and a smoother surface texture with continued use.

AdenosinePosition 24 of 61 ingredients on this row's own list

Adenosine is a wrinkle-care ingredient standard across Korean cosmetics, commonly included to support a firmer, smoother-looking surface as part of a daily routine.

Ceramide NPPosition 60 of 61 ingredients on this row's own list

Ceramide NP is one of the lipids that make up the skin's own barrier structure, and including it here is meant to support the look and feel of that barrier over time.

Sodium HyaluronatePosition 34 of 61 ingredients on this row's own list

Sodium Hyaluronate is a lower-molecular, water-soluble hyaluronic acid derivative that draws and holds moisture at the surface, supporting a plumper, more comfortable feel.

How to use

  1. Use it after cleansing and toning, while the surface is still slightly damp.
  2. Press three or four drops over the face and neck rather than rubbing them in.
  3. Wait until it feels dry to the touch, then apply your moisturiser over the top.
  4. Do not apply it over a cream or an oil, since a light serum cannot get through a finished occlusive layer.

How it works

Missha is a mainstream Korean drugstore brand with one of the longest-running catalogs in Korean skincare, and Red Bean Retinol Pore Reset Serum 30ml is formulated as a serum for the Korean market rather than a US-shelf reformulation. Retinol is a retinoid ingredient with a long clinical record, and Korean formulation typically wraps it in stabilizing bases like this one to keep it usable for a daily routine. It sits at position 36 of 61 ingredients on this row's own list, ahead of most of the formula's supporting agents. Niacinamide is one of the most established multi-tasking actives in Korean formulation, valued for supporting an even, calm-looking tone and a smoother surface texture with continued use. Further down the list, Adenosine appears at position 24 of 61, adding a supporting layer rather than the lead role.

Worth knowing

  • Retinol is on this list, so this step is best kept to the evening and paired with daytime sun care.
  • Patch test on a small area first if you are new to this formula or to the brand.

What professionals say

What professionals say

What skin-care professionals say about the key actives in this formula, quoted from the medical sources linked beside each.

  • Vitamin A has a molecular structure that's tiny enough to get into the lower layers of your skin, where it finds and boosts collagen and elastin, which is a protein that strengthens your skin's flexibility.

    Wilma Bergfeld, MDDermatologist, Cleveland Clinic
  • Ceramides are part fatty acid and part amino acid and are able to be the grout that keeps the building blocks of the skin together and functioning as a barrier between the inside and outside world.

  • Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
