Let’s Talk About Retinoids.
Not the harsh, skin-shedding kind that leaves your barrier begging for mercy. This is about thoughtful, skin-loving Vitamin A that works in harmony with your complexion, encouraging renewal without the drama.
Revive Vitamin A Gel is your nightly ritual for smoother, clearer, more refined skin. It’s designed to gently encourage cellular turnover, refine texture, balance oil, and support collagen over time—all while protecting your precious barrier.
Because radiant skin shouldn’t come at the cost of irritation.
Meet Vitamin A Palmitate — The Gentle Retinoid
Let’s start with the star.
Vitamin A Palmitate (a form of Retinyl Palmitate) is a milder, more stable derivative of Vitamin A. Unlike prescription-strength retinoic acid or potent over-the-counter retinols that can trigger redness, flaking, or sensitivity, Vitamin A Palmitate works at a slower, gentler pace:
✅ Converts gradually in the skin to active retinoic acid, reducing the risk of irritation.
✅ Supports cell turnover, revealing fresher, smoother skin.
✅ Promotes collagen synthesis for improved firmness over time.
✅ Helps manage congestion and balance oil, reducing breakouts.
✅ Evens skin tone, minimising the look of pigmentation and sun damage.
It’s the perfect entry-level retinoid for anyone who wants to harness Vitamin A’s renowned benefits—without the “retinol uglies.”
What Makes Revive… Revive?
Every ingredient in this gel is chosen to deliver Vitamin A’s renewing benefits in the most skin-friendly way possible.
Here’s a closer look at the formula:
Isododecane
A lightweight emollient that delivers that signature silky slip. It evaporates without residue, making the gel feel feather-light while helping spread actives evenly. It also enhances skin comfort without heaviness.
Cyclopentasiloxane
A volatile silicone that gives the formula its smooth, almost velvet-like finish. It forms a breathable layer that protects while feeling weightless—no pore-clogging here.
Dimethicone
A classic barrier-supportive silicone. Think of it as an invisible, flexible shield that seals in moisture, smooths texture instantly, and reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL). This means less irritation, more resilience.
Vitamin A Palmitate (Retinyl Palmitate)
Our star ingredient. A time-tested retinoid that helps refine, smooth, and renew the skin while being far gentler than traditional retinol. Perfect for first-timers or those with sensitive skin.
Polysilicone-11
A specialty silicone that leaves a soft-focus, semi-matte finish on skin. It helps blur pores and fine lines while supporting the gel’s silky application and wear.
Why Silicones? Let’s Clear the Air
Silicones sometimes get a bad rap—but here’s why they belong in Revive:
✅ Non-comedogenic (they don’t clog pores)
✅ Create a breathable barrier that helps lock in hydration
✅ Enhance spreadability, making Vitamin A application more even and less irritating
✅ Support barrier recovery by reducing friction and water loss
Barrier-friendly skincare isn’t just about what you avoid—it’s about what you include to protect your skin as it renews.
Why Use a Vitamin A Gel at Night?
Your skin does its hardest repair work while you sleep. Revive is designed to complement this process:
Encourages gentle exfoliation, supporting the natural overnight turnover cycle.
Helps clear clogged pores, reducing breakouts and congestion.
Stimulates collagen production to improve firmness and smooth fine lines over time.
Evens skin tone, targeting sun damage, pigmentation, and dullness.
Supports your barrier with emollients and silicones, reducing the risk of retinoid irritation.
Unlike harsh actives or scrubs, Vitamin A Palmitate offers a graceful approach to glow—making it accessible for sensitive or reactive skin types.
The Sensory Experience
Revive is more than an active treatment—it’s a nightly ritual.
✅ Feather-light gel texture
✅ Silky, velvety glide for effortless application
✅ Soft-focus, semi-matte finish
✅ No artificial fragrance—just clean, simple skin comfort
Because caring for your skin should feel good.
How to Use Revive
1️⃣ Apply to clean, dry skin at night.
2️⃣ Use a pea-sized amount—less is more with retinoids.
3️⃣ Start 2–3 nights per week, increasing frequency as tolerated.
4️⃣ Follow with your favourite barrier-supporting moisturiser if needed.
5️⃣ Always use SPF in the morning. Retinoids increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun.
6️⃣ Avoid layering with other strong actives (like AHAs, BHAs, or Vitamin C) on the same night to reduce irritation risk.
