IOPE RETINOL SERUM IN GEL MASK
Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

What is this product?
IOPE RETINOL SERUM IN GEL MASK (아이오페 레티놀 세럼 인 겔 마스크) is a single-use two-layer retinol sheet mask sold on the brand's own online store, with a banding gauze side and a collagen hydrogel side. Its printed list has 56 entries: water, glycerin and dipropylene glycol open it, niacinamide sits at 5th, adenosine at 26th, a retinoid ester at 46th and retinol at 47th, and a citric acid entry follows at 48th. The only printed amount is 23 ppm pure retinol in the last entry, beside a 1 percent formula figure in the copy. No fragrance entry or alcohol entry is printed, and the brand's wrinkle and pore figures are self-scored or unreconciled.
What makes it different?
A two-layer sheet mask built around a retinol and retinoid-ester pair, with one printed amount (23 ppm pure retinol) against a 1 percent formula headline the page never converts. The copy benchmarks it to the brand's own retinol serum and to an ultrasound home device, with self-scored test figures.
