Product Description
VENN Age-Response Compound K Hyaluronic Booster is an anti-aging and brightening boosting serum supercharged with 2,700 ppm of VENN’s patented form of Ginsenoside Compound K, a key anti-aging active in Panax ginseng with free-radical-fighting antioxidant power as strong as Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid) but without oxidation and sensitization issues.
The Age-Response Compound K Hyaluronic Booster features VENN’s patented technology to water-solubilize Ginsenoside Compound K and thereby use potent concentrations of it in the formulation for brighter, firmer, and more even-looking skin.
Packed with 5 different types of medium- and high-weight hyaluronic molecules, Peptides, Polyamine, and Vitamins B1, B2, B3 (Niacinamide), and B9 that work synergistically with Ginsenoside Compound K to provide comprehensive anti-aging skin benefits, including strengthening the skin and visibly reducing wrinkles, pores, and discoloration, VENN Age-Response Compound K Hyaluronic Booster has been clinically tested to reduce trans-epidermal water loss, brighten skin’s appearance, improve skin elasticity, improve skin firmness, visibly reduce wrinkles, and visibly minimize pores.
Pure Tincture reached out to me late last year and gifted some products based on my skin concerns. Based in Singapore, Pure Tincture provides bespoke facials and beauty treatments with popular clean skincare brands such as The Organic Pharamacy, VENN Skincare, Odacite, OSEA and more. Other than facials, they also offer eyelash lift, back treatment and body massage too.
If you are pressed for time, pop in during lunchtime and try their 30 Minutes Wonder Facial or if you are new to clean beauty brands, you can arrange an appointment for their Clean Beauty Swap as well.
Check out more about their products and treatments on their website or follow them on Facebook or Instagram for the latest updates. The owner, Helen has a clear and glowing complexion which is a testament to how well she takes care of her skin.
Prior to visiting their salon, I have purchased products from them as a customer before, so I am thankful to receive a warm invite from Helen, as she patiently explained the origins of each brand she curated for her salon.

Packaging, Scent and Texture
VENN Age-Response Compound K Hyaluronic Booster has a luxurious vibe to it. It is housed in a 30ml glass bottle with a gold cap that can be twisted to reveal the dropper for easy dispensing of the subtle yellow serum contents.
Lightweight and fast-absorbing with a smooth oily consistency, it has no scent and absorbed beautifully into skin.
How To Use :
Release 1-2 full dropper into the palm of your hand and gently pat evenly onto your face after cleansing AM + PM.
Performance and Ingredients
VENN Age-Response Compound K Hyaluronic Booster is an anti-aging and brightening boosting serum supercharged with 2,550 ppm of VENN’s patented form of Ginsenoside Compound K, the main metabolite and a key anti-aging active component of Panax Ginseng.
What makes it special is that Ginsenoside Compound K, at 750ppm of concentration, shows as strong free-radical-fighting antioxidant power as the maximum antioxidant power of vitamin C, but does not oxidize and is not sensitizing.
This serum is an antioxidant powerhouse packed with vitamins and nutrients. It can also be used as an alternative to a Vitamin C serum for its skin benefits without any of the negativities associated with Vitamin C, such as oxidation and sensitisation.
VENN Age-Response Compound K Hyaluronic Booster works well as a hydrating serum pairing with Allies of Skin Retinal & Peptides Repair Night Cream to combat the drying effects of retinal.
It is a lightweight serum that fits in-between Mamonde Rose Water Toner and Allies of Skin Peptides & Antioxidant Firming Daily Treatment for that fresh and glowing complexion. I also like using it after Jumiso All Day Vitamin Brightening & Balancing Facial Serum for that additional dose of hydration.
Pairing it with a more concentrated toner like Dear Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner would be too rich for my skin type, leaving it looking greasy.
On its own, VENN Age-Response Compound K Hyaluronic Booster has a silky smooth lightweight oily consistency that absorbed into skin quickly, leaving my face so soft, velvety smooth and supple with some shine.
With regular use, my complexion looked fresh and glowing in just 1 week and appeared youthful after 2 months.
That said, as I was gifted the product without the box, I wasn't able to check on the description, instruction or the full list of ingredients hence I have extracted the following information from websites.
