The Targeted Serum Edit: Yon-Ka’s Solutions for Dry, Reactive or Stressed Skin

Three targeted formulas, three different skin concerns: Yon-Ka Paris puts concentrated active ingredients at the heart of winter skincare

As temperatures drop and skin is exposed to colder weather, central heating and lower humidity, winter can quickly amplify concerns such as dryness, sensitivity, dehydration, uneven texture and visible signs of stress.

Rather than treating winter skin as one universal concern, Yon-Ka Paris takes a targeted approach to serum formulation, using powerful, concentrated active ingredients designed to address specific skin needs and work in depth. With innovative formulas, advanced ingredient technologies and high percentages of ingredients of natural origin, Yon-Ka’s serums are developed to support hydration, firmness, tone, barrier function and overall skin quality.

This winter, three targeted formulas stand out for three very different concerns: Serum Omega for dry and compromised skin; Bi-Serum Retinol-Like for those seeking anti-ageing results without traditional vitamin A; and Serum CBD for stressed, sensitive or fatigued-looking skin.

FOR DRY, SENSITIVE OR COMPROMISED SKIN: SERUM OMEGA

Yon-Ka Serum Omega – €88 / £78

Yon-Ka Serum Omega is an intensive oil-in-serum developed to nourish, repair and protect dry and sensitive skin. At the heart of the formula is Yon-Ka’s exclusive Lipo Restore Complex, a blend of 100% natural plant oils rich in Omegas 3, 6 and 9, with more than 60% omegas within the formula. Omega 3 helps soothe irritation and reduce the appearance of redness, Omega 6 helps prevent dehydration and strengthen the skin barrier, while Omega 9 deeply nourishes, protects and helps restore suppleness.

Rich in essential fatty acids, the formula takes a biomimetic approach, helping to reinforce the skin’s natural hydrolipidic film, strengthen the barrier and limit moisture loss while restoring comfort and suppleness. Clinically evaluated* and dermatologist-tested on dry and sensitive skin, Serum Omega has been shown to nourish skin by 95%, smooth skin texture by 44%, reduce redness by 14% and relieve sensations of discomfort by 20%.

Formulated with 99% ingredients of natural origin, Serum Omega can be used daily or as a more intensive treatment when the skin needs additional support.

FOR AGEING AND TEXTURED SKIN OR SENSITIVE RETINOL-INTOLERANT SKIN: BI-SERUM RETINOL-LIKE

Bi-Serum Retinol-Like 30ml – €129 / £114
Bi-Serum Retinol-Like Discovery Size 4ml – €35 / £31

Traditional retinol can be highly effective, but it is not suitable for every skin type or every stage of life. For those who are sensitive or reactive to vitamin A, or who are avoiding it during pregnancy or breastfeeding, Yon-Ka Bi-Serum Retinol-Like offers a targeted alternative without traditional retinol.

At the heart of the formula is Yon-Ka’s exclusive [RE]NEW Technology, combining two retinol-like active ingredients of 100% natural origin. An encapsulated Biomimetic Microalgae, derived from biotechnology, delivers a structural analogue of retinoic acid and helps stimulate cellular activity and skin renewal, while an active fraction of Mastic Tree works to protect and enhance retinoid mechanisms within the skin.

The dual-phase formula is designed to visibly smooth wrinkle types including smile lines, forehead lines and crow’s feet, refine pores from the first use and improve skin texture without irritation, including on sensitive skin. In testing**, 9 out of 10 users reported refined pores, 8 out of 10 reported younger-looking skin and an improvement in the appearance of deep wrinkles, while 92% said their skin felt softer and smoother.

Formulated with 99.8% ingredients of natural origin, the lightweight serum absorbs quickly and is suitable for daily use, morning and/or evening.

FOR STRESSED, SENSITIVE OR FATIGUED-LOOKING SKIN: SERUM CBD

Yon-Ka Serum CBD 30ml – €112 / £99

Yon-Ka Serum CBD is a concentrated oil-based night serum designed to target visible skin damage associated with stress and lack of sleep. Formulated with 99.9% ingredients of natural origin, it combines 300mg of pure THC-free CBD.

CBD provides antioxidant, anti-ageing and sebum-regulating benefits, while Sacred Lotus helps support stressed skin and Adaptogenic Reishi Extract helps strengthen the skin’s resistance to stress and provides antioxidant protection. Hemp and Inca Inchi oils help regulate, soothe and nourish the skin.

The self-adaptive formula is designed to smooth the skin, improve overall skin quality and reduce the appearance of wrinkles without leaving a greasy finish. It is non-comedogenic and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Applied nightly, Serum CBD can be used alone or layered beneath moisturiser as part of an evening skincare routine.
