How it works
This Retinal Peptide Capsule Cream is a light gel-cream, formulated around retinal, niacinamide and allantoin. It settles into the skin and is meant to be worked in as a night step. The remaining formula carries supporting humectants and film-forming agents typical of a VT cream of this kind, listed in full on the ingredient panel itself. Introduce this product on its own for the first several uses before layering it with other actives.
Key benefits
- Moisturizer, from VT Cosmetics' Korean-market lineup, 50 ml
- VT Cosmetics has not published a scan-based verification route; match the batch code on the box against the code on the bottle or tube itself.
Key actives
Niacinamidefifth on the list, tone and texture
Niacinamide is a tone and texture ingredient that shows up across most of VT's Reedle Shot line, doing brightening and surface-refining work rather than deep hydration. Listed fifth among the ingredients, it sits where the formula's own INCI order places its real weight in the mix.
Squalane11th on the list, lightweight emollient
Squalane is a lightweight, non-greasy emollient that softens texture without leaving the heavy film a mineral oil would. Listed 11th among the ingredients, it sits where the formula's own INCI order places its real weight in the mix.
Adenosine28th on the list, fine-line and texture smoothing
Adenosine is a Korean-formulation staple recognised for smoothing fine lines and texture, common enough in domestic Korean skincare to be treated as a routine inclusion rather than a headline. Listed 28th among the ingredients, it sits where the formula's own INCI order places its real weight in the mix.
Retinal35th on the list, retinoid, texture renewal
Retinal is a vitamin A aldehyde, one step further along the retinoid conversion pathway than retinol, which is why VT's Reti-A line is positioned for skin already comfortable with retinoid use. Listed 35th among the ingredients, it sits where the formula's own INCI order places its real weight in the mix.
Allantoin36th on the list, soothing
Allantoin is a mild, well-tolerated soothing agent that rounds out a formula's calming profile without adding any fragrance-like irritation risk. Listed 36th among the ingredients, it sits where the formula's own INCI order places its real weight in the mix.
VT Cosmetics Retinal Peptide Capsule Cream
Is the Retinal Peptide Capsule Cream on this page the Korean-market VT Cosmetics formula?
Yes. It is the release VT Cosmetics sells inside Korea. A product carrying the same name in a US-facing listing can be a different export version with a different ingredient list or size, and we only stock the Korean release. The box and unit that ship to you keep their Korean-language packaging and Korean barcode intact.
What does the Retinal Peptide Capsule Cream actually contain?
Its own ingredient list names retinal, niacinamide, allantoin and tripeptide-1, and we only describe what that list states rather than adding anything a similar VT product happens to carry. Retinal Peptide Capsule Cream is a light gel-cream, and it is meant to be worked in as a night step.
How do I check that this Retinal Peptide Capsule Cream unit is genuine?
VT Cosmetics has not published a scan-based verification route; match the batch code on the box against the code on the bottle or tube itself. Your unit ships with its Korean-market barcode and its batch code intact, because the production date stays yours to read rather than covered by a repack label. VT Cosmetics is one of the brands on this store with no scan-based verification of its own on record, so the batch-code cross-check is the honest answer here rather than a claim VT has not made.
How does buying the Retinal Peptide Capsule Cream here compare with a US retailer?
This is the unit built for the Korean market, with the Korean barcode and batch code intact on the box rather than swapped for a US-facing repack.
How is the Retinal Peptide Capsule Cream meant to be used?
It is worked in as a night step, and its own texture is a light gel-cream. Introduce it on its own for the first several uses so any reaction traces back to this product rather than to whatever else is in a routine that week, then fold it into the rest of a routine once it has been tolerated well.

How to use
- Use it in the evening as the last step, over your serum.
- A pea for the face, massaged until the capsules break and disappear.
- Start on two or three evenings a week, then build up from there.
- Do not use it alongside another retinoid, and wear sunscreen every morning.
Worth knowing
- Retinal is a step further along the retinoid pathway than retinol, so build up frequency slowly if a routine has not run a strong retinoid before.

Squalane comes from a lipid that occurs naturally in your skin.
Alok Vij, MDDermatologist, Cleveland Clinic 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.

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.
