What it is

Adenosine is a compound naturally involved in cellular energy signaling. In Korean cosmetics it is a familiar wrinkle-care ingredient, often found in creams, eye creams, and serums.

What it does

It is used to support smoother-looking skin and soften the appearance of fine lines over time. It is not an instant filler effect; think of it as a steady well-aging support ingredient.

How to use it

Use adenosine in a moisturizer, serum, or eye cream step. It layers easily with panthenol, ceramides, peptides, niacinamide, and sunscreen.

Good to know

Adenosine is generally gentle. As with any eye or wrinkle-care product, irritation usually depends on the full formula.
