Why This Bundle

Vitamin A is the most proven ingredient for pores and fine lines, and the way to get results without the flaking is to step it up gradually. Celimax's Vita-A pair is built for exactly that. The Retinol Shot Tightening Serum is your nightly base, gentle enough for every evening, and the Retinal Shot Tightening Booster, with faster-acting retinaldehyde, is the step-up you add two nights a week once skin is ready. Fragrance-free, alcohol-free and vegan, it is a vitamin-A routine you can actually stick to.

Key Ingredients

Retinol, Vita-A Complex, Panthenol, Retinal (Retinaldehyde), Peptides

How to use  

1. Retinol Serum, every evening: after cleansing and toner, dry the skin, then press 2–3 drops of Celimax The VITA-A Retinol Shot Tightening Serum into the face, avoiding the eye area. Follow with moisturizer.
2. Retinal Booster, 2 nights a week after the first 2 weeks: press a few drops of Celimax The Vita-A Retinal Shot Tightening Booster into the skin before the serum, or mix the two in your palm. Build up to 3 nights a week as tolerated.
3. Every morning, apply sunscreen; vitamin A increases sun sensitivity.
Note: Mild dryness or tingling in the first weeks is normal; reduce frequency if skin flakes. Do not combine with exfoliating acids on the same night. Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

What it is & why it works  

What it is: A two-step Celimax vitamin-A set: The VITA-A Retinol Shot Tightening Serum (30ml) for nightly use and The Vita-A Retinal Shot Tightening Booster (15ml) for booster nights.
Why it works: Retinoids speed cell turnover, refine pores and stimulate collagen, but skin needs time to adapt. Retinol, the gentler form, does that work every night with panthenol to keep the barrier comfortable. Retinal (retinaldehyde) is one conversion step closer to the active form skin uses, so it works faster and stronger; used only on booster nights once tolerance is built, it accelerates results without the irritation of daily high-strength use. Stepping between the two is how dermatologists recommend building up to vitamin A, and this pair makes the schedule simple.

Trust & Transparency

Is this product cruelty-free?  

Animal testing for cosmetics has been banned in the EU since 2013 and in Korea since 2017, and every product we stock is sold in line with European cosmetics law. Where a brand also holds an independent certification such as Leaping Bunny or PETA, you will find the logo on the pack.

Cruelty-free is not the same as vegan. For formulas without animal-derived ingredients, look for our Vegan tag.

What are the KKUMIDA SIX?  

Six tags that show at a glance what a formula leaves out and how it was checked: Alcohol-Free, Fragrance-Free, Pregnancy-Friendly*, Clean Ingredients, Vegan, Dermatologically-Tested. You will see them on product pages, and you can filter any collection by them.

*Always patch test first. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your doctor before adding anything new.
What each tag means →

Is everything 100% authentic?  

Yes. We buy only from the brands themselves or their authorised distributors, never from resellers or marketplaces. Every product arrives sealed with its original Korean batch code and ships from our own warehouse in Switzerland or Austria. If anything looks or feels different from what you know, email us a photo and we will make it right.

Where does this fit in my routine?  

For skincare, layer from the thinnest texture to the thickest.
