SOME BY MI Retinol Bakuchiol Face Serum 50ml — 0.1% Retinol, Barrier‑Repair Night Treatment

SOME BY MI Retinol Intense Reactivating Serum is a daily facial serum blending 0.1% retinol, 5,000ppm bakuchiol and supportive actives to help refine texture, reduce visible pore appearance and support firmer-looking skin.

This lightweight Korean serum combines both classic vitamin A derivatives and plant-derived bakuchiol in a formula designed to be effective yet mindful of sensitivity. The Re-active technology balances active delivery so the skin can adapt while ingredients like panthenol, beta-glucan and ceramides help maintain and repair the skin barrier. The 50ml pump format is formulated for consistent daily use as part of an evening routine.

How does this serum improve skin texture and pore appearance?

The serum uses retinol to encourage cell turnover together with bakuchiol to help even tone and texture. Collagen-boosting actions from these actives promote a smoother surface and can make enlarged pores appear less noticeable over time.

• Retinol 0.1% supports regular cell renewal.
• Bakuchiol 5,000ppm targets texture and pigmentation with lower irritation risk.
• Retinal at trace levels adds complementary vitamin A activity.
• Hydrating humectants and barrier lipids reduce flaking and irritation.

Is this suitable for sensitive or reactive skin?

Re-active delivery and a supportive base of panthenol, beta-glucan and ceramides are intended to make the formula more tolerant for skin that’s prone to sensitivity. Start slowly—use every few nights and increase frequency as tolerated to minimize reactive effects.

• Includes panthenol and beta-glucan to soothe and hydrate.
• Ceramides help rebuild the lipid barrier after treatment.
• Begin with short exposure and patch-test if you are very reactive.
• Use sunscreen during daytime—vitamin A derivatives can increase sun sensitivity.

How should I add this serum into my routine?

Apply the serum in the evening after cleansing and toning, before heavier creams or oils. For first-time retinol users, alternate nights and increase use gradually; those with established tolerance can use nightly depending on skin response.

• Cleanse and tone, then dispense 1–2 pumps of serum onto fingertips.
• Gently spread across face, avoiding direct eye area.
• Follow with moisturizer to lock in hydration and support the barrier.
• Always apply broad-spectrum SPF during the day.

What key ingredients are in the formula and why they matter?

The blend pairs retinol and retinal with high-concentration bakuchiol to deliver vitamin A-like effects with a botanical alternative. Additional ingredients focus on barrier repair, hydration and calming irritated skin after treatment.

• Retinol 0.1% for cell turnover and collagen signaling.
• Bakuchiol 5,000ppm to modulate texture and tone with plant-derived benefits.
• Panthenol, beta-glucan and ceramides support repair and reduce dryness.
• Trucica complex and humectants help maintain overall skin resilience.

Who is this for? The SOME BY MI Retinol Intense Reactivating Serum is aimed at adults seeking to address early signs of aging—uneven texture, enlarged pores and reduced firmness—who prefer a formula combining retinol with bakuchiol and barrier-supportive ingredients. It fits both those new to vitamin A systems who will build tolerance gradually and experienced users looking for a balanced, everyday retinol blend in a 50ml pump.
