Cosmoderm Luminous A Retinol Review

Retinol for beginner



In general, most people are advised to start using retinol in their mid-20s. Why do we need retinol for our skin? Well, this is because collagen and elastin production starts to slow down. Adding retinol into our skincare routine at age of 25 to 30 is the perfect time to slow down the ageing process.

So, what is retinol that people are hyping about? In short, retinol is a topical product containing a vitamin A derivative. Technically speaking a type of retinoid which works to increase collagen production. It helps to treat acne, and blackheads and is also ideal to improve skincare texture such as minimising fine lines, and wrinkles and brightening dull skin.


Personally, I am a beginner in adding Retinol into my skincare routine. At the age of 47 years old. I guess, am afraid to start one because I read many side effects if use it wrong. 

What is the side effect if you use retinol wrong? 

Retinols can increase your skin's sensitivity to sunlight. So, it is advisable to apply this at night if you are a beginner.  and if you still want to use it during the daytime, please don't forget to apply a layer of SPF as protection. 

Warning: If you don't apply it right, one may find they will experience irritation, dry and even peeling skin. So, be extra careful and always read the ingredients before using retinol.


I am sharing my experience applying Cosmoderm Luminous A (which contains Retinol) for a month.

Well, I dare to try out Cosmoderm Luminous A because their products contain a suitable % of retinol so it will not harm my skin.

What is my skin problem?

  • Dull skin
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Dark spot
  • Fine lines 
  • Wrinkles


Cosmoderm Luminous A Reverse Aging Elixir


If you are looking to add retinol products for skin lifting and firming. This is the one. I would say this works like just found a fountain of youth. In a month, it does what it claimed.

  • Boost up skin radiance and make skin more refined
  • Totally lift up my sagging skin and repair damaged skin

When it comes to texture: You will expect a white cream pump out of the bottle. Don't worry, the white cream absorbs into the skin like magic and is very lightweight too. It's 100% fragrance-free.

If you are having premature ageing and weary skin, try this one. Other signs you need this if your skin appears sagging, dull with uneven skin tone & or fine lines. It contains 0.3% retinol + vitamin E.

How to use the Cosmoderm Luminous A Reverse Aging Elixir?

Just apply step 3 of the skincare routine which is after Cleansing and Toning respectively. Just pump out the cream from the bottle and apply the elixir onto the face and neck. Massage gently until it fully absorbs. As I warned in the beginning, please apply Day UV Active Shield SPF25 if you are applying during the daytime. I personally apply this to my night skincare routine.


Cosmoderm Luminous A Dark Spot Corrector Emulsion


When you are my age late 40s, you will understand my ongoing concern. Dark spots, Hyperpigmentation is no joke. 

I add in Cosmoderm Luminous A Dark Spot Corrector Emulsion mainly for this skin concern. I couldn't see any dark spots or hyperpigmentation lighten up after a month of applying this. But,I am willing to continue using this for another 2 to 3 months, just for the sake of don't want to give up. Plus Cosmoderm Luminous is A range kind of suitable for my skin. I still see hopes in this though!


Cosmoderm Luminous A Dark Spot Corrector Emulsion contains 0.2% retinol and 5% niacinamide. The texture is a white liquid with a very thoughtful dispense bottle which is able to target the dark spot and skin concern area in specific.


Suitable Retinol




Why I am not willing to give up even in a month use my dark spot is still not lightened up?

This is because I notice my skin texture is improving and look more radiance. 

How to apply Cosmoderm Luminous A Dark Spot Corrector Emulsion?


Add this to Step 4 of the skincare routine which is after Reverse Aging Elixir. Then apply the SPF as advised earlier.

My recommendation, if you are a beginner to use Retinol products for the first time. Please use the full range from the same brand for the best result. 

Cosmoderm Luminous A is suitable for Retinol beginners because it contains a suitable % retinol. 

You can apply the full range of Cosmoderm Luminous A without any worry since they label the skincare steps on the label for your convenience. Best retinol skincare routine :

Step 1 👉 Cosmoderm Luminous A Creamy Liquid Cleansing Gel
