16 Bioactives & Botanicals

Key Ingredients

CoQ10

CoQ10 (Ubiquinone) is a fat-soluble, vitamin-like compound that plays an essential role in cellular energy production and functions as a powerful antioxidant. It nourishes and reinforces the skin, replenishing the natural lipid barrier and preventing transepidermal water loss (TEWL). Research shows beneficial effects include diminished signs of wrinkle depth and visible signs of photoageing.

Bakuchiol

Bakuchiol is a natural alternative to retinol and a potent antioxidant that stimulates collagen production and visibly reduces skin discolouration from environmental exposure. It has a soothing effect on skin and protects the extra cellular matrix controlling inflammation.

Rosehip

A potent anti-ageing oil rich in Vitamins A and E and essential fatty acids, Rosehip supports collagen production, elasticity, and skin renewal. Its antioxidant properties protect against free radicals and premature ageing, while also helping to fade hyperpigmentation and reduce inflammation, leaving skin nourished and radiant.

Tomato Seed Oil

Cold pressed tomato seed oil is an upcycled, lycopene rich botanical active that delivers potent antioxidant protection. Abundant in carotenoids, essential fatty acids and phytonutrients, it helps defend extracellular matrix proteins from UV induced damage, support hydration and elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Its natural anti inflammatory properties help calm redness while promoting a resilient, radiant complexion.

Retinal

Retinal, also known as retinaldehyde, is a potent vitamin A derivative that promotes cellular renewal, collagen production and improved firmness. As the direct precursor to retinoic acid, it converts in one step within the skin, making it more efficient and less sensitising than retinol. It helps refine fine lines, uneven tone and breakouts with a balanced tolerance profile.

How To Use

Directions

Use in the evening after cleansing.

Press 2-4 drops gently onto face, neck and décolletage areas and allow to absorb.

Layering guide

Apply your serums after cleansing and misting/toning, and before applying moisturiser.

A simple rule of thumb is layering thinnest to thickest. Hyaluronic Acid should always be your final serum.

Time of day

We recommend applying as part of your nighttime routine.

Mukti's Advice

All of our Vitamin Elixirs are designed as boosters to our Age Defiance collection. Try pairing with our Night Serum for complementary results.

Duration of use

Frequency of usage will vary based on how your skin reacts to Vitamin A. If using daily, this serum should last up to 90 days.

Avoid if

Not recommended for use while pregnant or breastfeeding.

As with introducing any new skincare product, we always recommend doing a patch test first. If your skin does not react, you can incorporate the Vital A into your routine. How often you use it varies based on how your skin responds to it, and it's advised to incorporate slowly, starting at once every few days. If irritation occurs at any point, discontinue use immediately.

What We Leave Out

We are uncompromising in our pursuit of purity, leaving out anything that could undermine your skin’s health. Nothing is incidental. Each ingredient is carefully selected to nurture, nourish, and protect.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the active ingredient in the Vital A Elixir? How does it compare to traditional retinol or retinoic acid?

The active ingredient in our Vital A Elixir is Retinal (retinaldehyde) - a retinoic acid precursor, which is formed as an intermediate metabolite in the transformation of retinol to retinoic acid in human keratinocytes. In the skin, retinal is metabolised to retinoic acid as well as to retinol and retinyl esters (which generally get depleted during photoaging), which is why it is incredibly effective in the treatment of signs of ageing and skin disorders. Moreover, metabolism of retinal to retinoic acid occurs only by keratinocytes at a pertinent stage of differentiation, leading to a more controlled delivery of retinoic acid and weaker retinoid associated adverse effects as compared to tretinoin and other synthetic retinoids.

How does Retinal work?

Retinal assists in the production of collagen (reducing the appearance of wrinkles & fine lines), enhancing cell turnover, and evening skin tone.

Can I use the Vital A with other serums?

Yes - Vital A may be used in conjunction with our Vital B or Vital C Elixirs, and our Age Defiance Night Serum.

I have sensitive skin - can I use Vital A?

Whilst some other forms of Vitamin A may cause skin irritation, the retinal in our Vital A serum is much gentler than traditional forms. However, as with introducing any new skincare product, we always recommend doing a patch test first. If your skin does not react, you can incorporate the Vital A into your routine. How often you use it varies based on how your skin responds to it, and it's advised to incorporate slowly, starting at once every few days.
If irritation occurs at any point, discontinue use immediately.

Is the Vital A pregnancy safe?

The updated Vital A formulation now features a biotech derived retinal. While the origin has changed, the molecule itself remains functionally identical and continues to deliver the same high performance skin benefits. In line with this update, we have taken a more precautionary approach to pregnancy guidance. While most concerns around vitamin A relate to oral intake rather than topical application, current industry best practice is to advise against the use of all vitamin A derivatives during pregnancy. This ensures we are aligned with global safety standards and provides clarity and confidence for both practitioners and consumers.

Why do I only use it during the evening?

Retinal (retinaldehyde) is best applied at night. As a light-sensitive active, it degrades on UV exposure reducing efficacy and increasing the skin’s sensitivity to sun damage, irritation, and pigmentation. While our packaging uses biophotonic glass to protect the formula from light degradation in storage, once applied to skin it should not be exposed to sunlight. If morning use is unavoidable, a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is essential.

Reviews

Been using Mukti products exclusively

"Been using Mukti products exclusively for around 4 years now - why would I change if something works!? Products are of the highest quality. The price point is actually amazing taking into account the quality and that a little goes a long way, whether it’s cleanser, serums, moisturiser etc - they aren’t stingy and they last. Customer care is always fantastic too. And their loyalty program isn’t just a token marketing strategy - it actually rewards you. I have tried most of their products over time and have it honed now to my staples and favourites that I just always have. Every now and then I treat myself by adding something else in or I change the serums around. This vitamin A is one I’ve used for years- it’s not harsh but it is active. So happy to recommend this brand - I really steer away from product reviews typically but genuinely want to share my appreciation."

— Emma H. (5/5)

"Has really helped to even out my skin texture and smooth fine lines."

— LJ (5/5)

Finally a Vitamin A my skin loves!

— Chloe (5/5)

I’m breastfeeding at the moment

Hydrating
