About Retinol Intense Advanced Triple Action Eye Cream

Overview

Retinol Intense Advanced Triple Action Eye Cream is a cushioning cream from SOME BY MI, a brand based in Korea. The formula is built mainly around hydration and soothing. The ingredient list runs to 82 ingredients, each broken down in full below.

Texture and finish

By its ingredient list the formula reads as moderately cushioned — emollient enough to feel like a cream, without the heaviest occlusives near the top. Silicones in the formula tend to give a smooth, blurred finish and help it grip under makeup. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Methylpropanediol and Panthenol, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.

What the formula does

Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Methylpropanediol, Panthenol and Ethylhexylglycerin.

Soothing: High. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Beta-glucan, Centella Asiatica Extract and Asiaticoside.

Brightening: Moderate. Ingredients that act on uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks, and here that comes from Niacinamide, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Tocopherol and Retinal.

Barrier support: Moderate. Lipids and repair signals that support skin barrier integrity, and here that comes from Niacinamide, Panthenol, Hydrogenated Lecithin and Lecithin.

Who it suits

On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry, Combination (dry), Combination (oily) and Oily skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.

What is not in it

Reading the full list, the formula is essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, sulfate-free, dye-free and oil-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain fragrance, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.

Where it fits in a routine

It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes before moisturiser. Tap along the orbital bone with your ring finger; product migrates upward on its own.

This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.

Safety and suitability

Flags to check, not verdicts. None of this is medical advice — if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or treating a skin condition, ask a doctor.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Contains Retinol, BHA, Retinal, usually reviewed with a doctor during pregnancy.
Fungal acne (malassezia)
5 ingredients could feed malassezia: Polysorbate 60, Polysorbate 20, Polyglyceryl-10 Myristate, Peg-30 Dipolyhydroxystearate, Glyceryl Caprylate. That is about the yeast's food supply, not a prediction that you will break out.
Sensitive and reactive skin
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
Recorded ingredient risks
