Dr. Oracle RetinoTightening 3D-Tox Peptide Eye Cream

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-09-24

What is this product?

A 25 ml Korean retinoid eye cream from Dr.Oracle's RetinoTightening line. The name says retinol, but the retinoid in the printed list is hydroxypinacolone retinoate (HPR) at 100 ppm, the HPR 0.01% on the front, with acetyl hexapeptide-8 at 10 ppm, niacinamide, adenosine and several hyaluronic acid forms in a silicone and shea butter base. It is sold as a wrinkle-improvement functional cosmetic. Product evidence is a small two-week lifting test and a one-week eye-area suitability test; the HPR efficacy claims rely on raw-material literature. No fragrance entry and no exfoliating acid. The brand recommends night use, a slow start and no use in pregnancy.

What makes it different?

A low-dose HPR eye cream rather than a retinol one: 100 ppm HPR with a peptide and niacinamide, sold as a wrinkle functional cosmetic, with the brand's own slow-start and pregnancy advice printed on the page.

What is in it?

The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.

This brand publishes its ingredient list in Korean only. Names below are the matching INCI names from the Korean Cosmetic Association ingredient dictionary, except 5 with no dictionary entry, left in Korean.
