How to use

In the evening, apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry facial skin, avoiding the eye area. Initially, use 1–2 times per week, gradually increasing frequency based on your skin’s tolerance.
If redness, flaking, or dryness occurs, reduce the frequency of use and enhance hydration, for example, with TaO cream or Aqua Perfector fluid. If irritation persists, discontinue use until the skin recovers.

Description

Inception 0.3% Retinol Fluid is the perfect start to your anti-aging routine. Formulated for those new to retinol, this gentle yet highly effective treatment provides the best possible introduction to achieving healthy, rejuvenated skin.

Advanced Microencapsulation for Maximum Efficacy
With cutting-edge NLC microencapsulation technology, Inception ensures controlled and gradual release of pure retinol. This system allows deep penetration of the active ingredient into the skin while minimizing irritation often experienced in the initial stages of retinol use. The result is maximum efficacy with minimal discomfort.

Visible Skin Rejuvenation

With regular use, Inception 0.3% significantly contributes to:

  • Reducing fine lines and increasing skin elasticity,
  • Improving skin texture, making it smoother and healthier,
  • Evening out skin tone and reducing pigmentation spots,
  • Minimizing enlarged pores, leaving the skin fresher and more radiant.

Clinically Proven Retinol Efficacy

Retinol is the most researched and effective ingredient for combating signs of aging. By stimulating collagen and elastin production, retinol helps the skin renew itself, enhancing firmness and elasticity while reducing wrinkles. Additionally, retinol accelerates cell turnover, resulting in a more even, healthier, and naturally radiant complexion.

Natural Hydration and Renewal

Inception contains panthenol, allantoin, and Centella asiatica, which together reduce irritation, improve hydration, and promote cell renewal. These ingredients ensure the skin remains hydrated, soothed, and protected, even with the potent effects of retinol.

Why Choose Inception 0.3%?

• Ideal for retinol beginners, with reduced risk of irritation and side effects,
• Suitable for all skin types,
• Visible results within a few weeks of use.

Inception 0.3% is more than just a nighttime treatment – it’s an entry into the world of more beautiful, youthful skin. The first step in maintaining a youthful appearance, with clinically proven results.


Investing in Inception is not just a step in your beauty routine – it’s a strategic move toward renewed, rejuvenated skin.

What our customers say

Reviews from our customers bring honest experiences and real results of using Aprive cosmetics.

So far I am satisfied. I plan to upgrade to 0.5.

Marija S.

Excellent retinol..I use it every night and my skin is great, otherwise I use serum and creams from the same brand and I am satisfied with the quality and price.

Gordana B.

First retinol ever in my life. After months of research, I decided on Inception. So far I've been using it twice a week, and I can say that my skin is glowing.... In just a few uses, this retinol has gained a loyal fan.

Jasmina

After using this retinol, I don't have any burning or redness, and my skin absorbs it and my skin feels fuller without any tightness. I'll definitely get the 1% because I've been using this every night for a few months now. After using the retinol, I apply Tao cream to my face and in the morning my skin looks healthy and bright.

Gordana B.

Inception has become an indispensable part of my evening care. With proper hydration, retinol does not cause any irritation. The skin of the face is extremely smooth, has a healthy glow and wrinkles are less visible. I will definitely try creams with a higher percentage of retinol because I have gained confidence in the quality of Aprive cosmetics.

Gordana P.

Excellent retinol, after using the entire tube, the face is radiant, there are no pimples even on the chin on those days of the month. You just need patience, because at first you don't see the results. I am very satisfied. Followed by 0.5.
