This is the Innisfree Retinol Cica Serum with Salicylic Acid (also called Retinol Cica Moisture Recovery Serum or Repair Ampoule in some regions), a popular Korean skincare product designed as a beginner-friendly retinol. It's marketed for soothing irritation, gently exfoliating, improving texture, and addressing acne-prone or troubled skin while strengthening the barrier.

Main Benefits & Ingredients

• Combines low-concentration retinol (estimates range from ~0.015% to very low based on user calculations) with cica (centella asiatica) for soothing, salicylic acid (BHA) for gentle exfoliation and acne control, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides.
• Focuses more on acne/troubled skin than strong anti-aging (due to mild retinol level).
• Fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, suitable for all skin types including sensitive and acne-prone.
• Claims: Gently removes dead skin, calms irritation, hydrates, and improves barrier; 96% of users felt protected from stressors after 2 weeks (brand study).
