What it is

DERMA FACTORY Retinal 300ppm Cream 30ml is an evening cream applied thinly. When comparing vitamin A products, start with the ingredient name and unit. Retinal and Retinol are different names; reading 300ppm as 0.3% overstates the concentration tenfold.

Read 0.03% alongside the formula

The 300ppm sales figure converts to 0.03%. The ingredient is Retinal, not Retinol. Different ingredients and formulas mean a number alone cannot establish a multiple of another cream’s effect.

The domestic list used here begins with Centella Leaf Water, Glycerin, Hydrogenated Polydecene and Caprylyl Methicone. Niacinamide, Panthenol, Macadamia Seed Oil and Cholesterol also appear. Hydrogenated Phosphatidylcholine is distinct from Hydrogenated Lecithin. Fragrance is listed, so check past scent-related reactions.

Confirm evening use and your tube

The brand’s sales directions describe a thin layer at the final skincare stage before bed. Consider which existing step to change before adding several concentrated products. Uncomfortable redness or stinging is not something you must endure for adaptation. Older retailer formulas and the international page differ, so prioritize the purchased tube’s ingredients. Other active creams are presented as comparison choices rather than automatic additions.

A buying question answered

300ppm equals 0.03%, and the named ingredient is Retinal. Keep it separate from Retinol and the ten-times-higher 0.3% figure. Concentration alone cannot rank effects or irritation across different vitamin A products. The brand’s sales directions specify a thin layer at the final skincare stage before bed.

Use and comparison choices

Before bed, spread an appropriate amount thinly as the last skincare step. Let it absorb gently and stop use if an uncomfortable reaction develops.

Tranexamic Acid 6% Cream is an alternative based on a different ingredient. Compare identity, fragrance and use time as choices, rather than adding both creams together.

If extra hydration is needed, compare Torriden DIVE-IN Low Molecular Hyaluronic Acid Serum 50ml before the cream. This separates a hydrating serum from a cream rather than adding another concentrated active product.

Key ingredients

Glycerin
The most widely used humectant in skincare, drawing water toward the skin and holding it in the upper layers. Its interaction with the skin's own water channels has been studied for decades, and it is mild enough to appear across a very wide concentration range. At high levels it turns tacky, so formulas usually pair it with lighter humectants.
NiacinamideEWG 1
A form of vitamin B3 that acts on the step where melanin transfers into skin cells, which is the basis for its use in tone-evening products. Research also covers barrier lipid production and oil control, giving it unusually broad application. In Korea it is a listed brightening functional ingredient, commonly at 2 to 5 percent.
PanthenolEWG 1
A precursor to vitamin B5 that converts to pantothenic acid once absorbed. It works in two directions at once, holding water and helping settle the skin barrier, which is why it appears in both calming skincare and hair care. Its low irritation profile makes it a regular in sensitive-skin formulas.
Cholesterol
One of the three lipid classes that build the stratum corneum, working with ceramides and fatty acids at a balanced ratio to keep the barrier intact. Formulas aimed at dry or reactive skin typically pair it directly with ceramides.
