Eau Thermale Avène RetrinAL Advanced Correcting Serum 1 fl oz — Bakuchiol & Hyaluronic Acid, firms & plumps

Avène RetrinAL Advanced Correcting Serum is a lightweight, fragrance-free anti-aging serum that firms, plumps and helps reduce the visible appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while hydrating and evening skin tone.

Formulated for sensitive skin, this clinical-strength serum combines bakuchiol (a plant-derived alternative to retinol), hyaluronic acid for immediate hydration and niacinamide to support barrier function and tone. The non-irritating formula delivers antioxidant support and 24-hour hydration in a concentrated dropper bottle, leaving skin looking smoother and more radiant with continued use.

How does this serum improve appearance of fine lines and wrinkles?

The serum uses bakuchiol to promote visible corrective effects similar to retinol but with reduced risk of irritation. Hyaluronic acid provides instant plumping by drawing moisture into the skin, while niacinamide supports collagen-related pathways and skin strength for firmer-looking texture over time.

• Bakuchiol: plant-derived corrective ingredient for signs of aging.
• Hyaluronic acid: immediate hydration and plumping action.
• Niacinamide: helps even tone and reinforces the skin barrier.

Can sensitive skin tolerate this formulation?

Yes—Avène designed this serum to be non-sensitizing and fragrance-free, using gentle active concentrations suitable for those prone to reactivity. The inclusion of Avène Thermal Spring Water and the absence of strong fragrances or harsh solvents reduces potential irritation while still offering visible benefits.

• Fragrance-free and non-irritating formulation.
• Contains soothing Avène Thermal Spring Water to calm skin.
• Developed to be suitable for multiple skin types, including sensitive skin.

How should I use the RetrinAL Advanced Correcting Serum in my routine?

Apply the serum twice daily—morning and evening—after cleansing and before heavier creams or SPF. Use the dropper to dispense a few drops onto face, neck and décolleté, then gently smooth into skin; follow with moisturizer and sunscreen during daytime use.

• Twice-daily application for consistent results.
• Apply to face, neck and décolleté with the precise dropper.
• Follow with moisturizer and daily SPF in the morning.

What immediate and long-term benefits can I expect?

Immediately, hyaluronic acid delivers visible plumping and hydration for a fresher appearance. Over weeks of consistent use, the combined actives help refine texture, even skin tone and support firmness, creating a more radiant, resilient complexion.

• Instant hydration and visible plumping effects.
• Progressive reduction in the look of fine lines and uneven tone.
• Supports longer-term skin barrier strength and radiance.

Who is this for: Avène RetrinAL Advanced Correcting Serum is suited for anyone seeking an effective anti-aging serum that minimizes irritation—particularly those with sensitive, reactive or combination skin who want hydration, improved texture and a more even complexion without traditional retinol side effects. It also complements professional aesthetic treatments and fits into both morning and evening skincare regimens.
