Full of Life, Not of Air.

Not a life inflated for others to see. A life fully lived.
The name BALOOM echoes balloon. But the beauty we believe in is not applied from the outside or inflated for a moment. It is vitality that reveals itself naturally through healthy skin and a life well lived. That is why the skincare comes first - every BALOOM formula follows three principles.

Yes, 300 ppm of retinal, plus bakuchiol.
Gentle isn't the same as weak — retinal works at lower levels than retinol, and
bakuchiol calms the process. That's why most people see smoother texture
without the flaking they expect from retinoids.

Retinal — retinaldehyde, one step closer to the form skin actually uses. It's deliberate, not a typo.

Two or three nights a week for the first two weeks, then nightly as your skin allows. Apply to dry skin after serum, avoid the eye area, and wear sunscreen every morning.

It scored 0.00 on a primary irritation test and has no added fragrance, but any product can disagree with someone.
Patch-test on the inner arm for 48 hours first. Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding — ask your doctor.

Yes. The natural yellow comes from retinal and vitamins; it disappears as the cream settles. It's rich on application and dry to the touch by the end of your routine — use one pump for the face, a second for neck and chest.

It's an airless pump jar: press the center of the lid and the cream rises through the opening. No fingers in the jar, no air, no contamination.

You're getting two actives tuned together, a hygienic airless jar, and a formula that people who can't tolerate retinol can actually use every night. If it doesn't suit you, our 30-day return policy applies.
