This ampoule pairs bakuchiol, a plant-derived retinol alternative, with Cica Exo, delivering a firming and soothing treatment specifically formulated for sensitive skin types seeking gentle anti-aging benefits.

What It Is

This is an ampoule designed for those seeking anti-aging benefits without the potential irritation often associated with traditional retinoids. It addresses concerns like fine lines, loss of elasticity, and uneven texture while simultaneously calming reactive skin. Unlike many bakuchiol products that focus solely on firming, DERMALINE combines this plant-based active with Cica Exo, a powerful soothing complex, making it a unique solution for sensitive or easily irritated skin that still desires a visible firming effect.

Key Ingredients

• Bakuchiol: A natural phenolic compound derived from the Babchi plant (Psoralea corylifolia), known to mimic retinol's effects on collagen synthesis and cell turnover, improving skin firmness and reducing the appearance of lines without common retinoid irritation or photosensitivity.
• Cica Exo (Centella Asiatica Extract, Madecassoside): A soothing complex derived from Centella asiatica, rich in triterpenoids. It works to calm inflammation, accelerate wound healing, and support the skin's barrier function, visibly reducing redness and sensitivity.
• Glycerin: A humectant that draws moisture from the air into the skin, providing hydration and helping to maintain a healthy skin barrier.

DERMALINE formulated this ampoule focusing on efficacy for sensitive skin. It is free of synthetic dyes, drying alcohols, and parabens. While it features a subtle rose aroma, its core formulation prioritizes soothing with Cica Exo, aiming for a pH between 5.5 and 6.5 to support skin barrier health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use DERMALINE D'LEXO Bakuchiol Firming Solution Ampoule with other retinoids?

While bakuchiol is a retinol alternative, using it concurrently with traditional retinoids might increase the risk of irritation, especially for sensitive skin. It is generally recommended to use them on alternate nights or consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

Is this ampoule suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding individuals?

Bakuchiol is often considered a safer alternative to retinol during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, we always recommend consulting with your physician before introducing any new skincare product, especially during these periods, to ensure it aligns with your specific health needs.

What is the 'Cica Exo' in this ampoule?

Cica Exo refers to an optimized complex derived from Centella asiatica (Cica). It is specifically chosen for its strong anti-inflammatory and skin-repairing properties, helping to soothe redness and strengthen the skin barrier while bakuchiol works on firming and elasticity improvement.

Will the subtle rose scent irritate my sensitive skin?

The ampoule features a subtle rose aroma which some highly sensitive individuals might notice. However, the formulation prioritizes overall low irritation, and many with sensitive skin tolerate it well. If you are extremely reactive to scents, we recommend patch testing first to assess compatibility.

Pairs Well With

To maximize the firming and soothing benefits, follow with a ceramide-rich moisturizer to reinforce the skin barrier and lock in hydration. During the day, always apply a broad-spectrum SPF to protect against UV damage, which can accelerate signs of aging. For targeted texture refinement, consider pairing with a gentle PHA toner on alternate nights to avoid over-exfoliation.
