If you want a gentler daily option, the Glutathione Booster Shot Essence is a lightweight essence for morning and evening.
How to use the Arencia Retinal Booster Shot
Use the Retinal Booster Shot in the evening, starting two or three times a week, and build up slowly. Wear sunscreen the next morning. Don't use it on the same night as other strong exfoliating acids.

Is Arencia a Korean brand?
Yes. Arencia is a South Korean skincare brand based in Seoul. Its range combines traditional Korean methods, such as fermented rice in its mochi cleansers, with modern actives like vitamin C, glutathione and retinal. Every Arencia product we sell is sourced from official brand channels in Korea and shipped to the UAE and GCC from our Seoul warehouse.
How do I use the Arencia Vitamin C Booster Shot?
After cleansing and toner, apply a few drops of the Vitamin C Booster Shot every other day in the daytime, or a thin layer at night, then moisturise. Its main vitamin C is 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid at 50,000ppm, with niacinamide and glutathione. Always wear sunscreen in the daytime while using it, and patch test first if your skin is sensitive.
Can I use the Arencia Vitamin C and Retinal Booster Shots together?
It is best not to layer them on the same night. Use the Vitamin C Booster Shot in the morning or on some evenings, and the Retinal Booster Shot on other evenings, starting two or three times a week. This lets you get the benefits of both while keeping irritation low. Wear sunscreen every morning.
Is Arencia cruelty-free?
We could not find Arencia in PETA's cruelty-free database when we checked in October 2026, so we cannot describe the whole brand as certified cruelty-free. The brand describes its Green Rice Mochi Cleanser as vegan and cruelty-free. If animal testing matters to you, check the brand's own statement for each product you want.
Is Arencia halal?
Arencia does not hold a halal certification, so no product can be called certified halal. Skincare is applied to the skin rather than eaten, and many Muslim shoppers in the UAE and Saudi Arabia check the ingredient list for alcohol and animal-derived ingredients before buying. Every product page shows the full ingredient list, and our halal guide explains what to look for.
