Launch background and cumulative sales record

Innisfree is introducing the upgraded 'Retinol Cica Pore & Scar Ampoule,' a new version of its beginner-friendly retinol product, the 'Retinol Cica Repair Ampoule,' which has sold a cumulative 7.96 million units since its launch in September 2021. Based on research into the main skin concerns of consumers in their 20s, Innisfree applied a formula designed to strengthen retinol care while reducing skin burden.

Specs featuring 3X Retinol Complex and Liposome Technology

The 'Retinol Cica Pore & Scar Ampoule' uses 3X Retinol Complex delivered through Liposome Technology, allowing particles 2,300 times smaller than pores to be absorbed into the skin. This helps smooth the appearance of visible pores and firms up skin in areas where pores have become enlarged.

Coverage for five pore concerns and a soothing 3X Cica formula

The product comprehensively addresses five major pore concerns among consumers in their 20s: pore volume, pore count, pore area, pore depth, and pore density. It also uses a formula with the soothing effects of 3X Cica, made with three cica ingredients sourced from Jeju, to reduce the burden of retinol and is designed for sensitive, acne-prone skin.

Skin irritation test results and suitability for sensitive skin

In a primary irritation test for sensitive skin, the skin irritation response score came in at 0.00. The product also completed five skin-use suitability tests, making it suitable for daily use even on sensitive skin.

How to use and makeup-friendly skin benefits

The product can be used both morning and night. After cleansing, apply an appropriate amount and spread it gently over the skin, then let it absorb. It helps smooth the skin texture around the pores right after use, supporting retinol care for makeup-friendly skin without concerns about caking or pilling.

Paired use with the newly launched 'Retinol Cica Pore & Scar Cream'

Along with the upgraded ampoule, Innisfree is also introducing the new 'Retinol Cica Pore & Scar Cream.' Using the cream together with the ampoule after caring for pores and skin marks can further enhance pore-care synergy.
