THOME CPR vs ABC: Which Serum Is Right for Your Skin?
Two serums. Two clear skin goals.
Fine lines and a loss of bounce? Reach for pink CPR. Visible redness, excess oil and the marks blemishes leave behind? Choose blue ABC. THOME makes the decision simple with two concentrated Korean serums, each built around three key ingredients.
Give your evening routine a purpose. Choose the formula that matches your main concern, apply it before moisturiser, and keep the rest of your routine comfortable and consistent.

CPR: give fine lines a focused evening step
THOME CPR Triple-Synergy Wrinkle Care Serum 30ml
When skin looks less bouncy and fine lines seem more noticeable, CPR brings wrinkle care and hydration into the same step. Its pink-and-gold capsule formula combines 1% collagen, 1% peptides and 0.1% retinal for smoother, plumper-looking skin.
Retinal addresses the appearance of fine lines and uneven texture. Collagen adds hydrating care, while peptides focus on the look of firmness and elasticity. Together, they give your routine a clear direction when smoothing and bounce are the priorities.
One serum brings together wrinkle-focused retinal and complementary hydrating and firming care. Follow with your moisturiser for a complete evening finish.
Retinal, not retinol: CPR contains 0.1% retinal. Introduce it gradually, starting with a small amount on two evenings a week. Use sunscreen every morning.
ABC: bring the focus back to calmer-looking skin
THOME ABC Triple-Synergy Redness Comfort Serum 30ml
Blemishes often leave more than one concern behind: visible redness, uneven-looking tone and oily areas that feel difficult to balance. ABC combines 10% azelaic acid, 5% niacinamide and 1% centella asiatica in one lightweight blue serum.
Azelaic acid targets the appearance of blemishes, redness and uneven tone. Niacinamide, also called vitamin B3, adds oil-balance and barrier care. Centella brings soothing care to keep comfort part of the routine.
ABC gives blemish-prone, oily and uneven-looking skin a focused serum step, with soothing care built into the same formula.
Use it at night after toner and before moisturiser. A light white residue can occasionally appear because of the concentrated formula. Gently wipe the bottle opening when needed and finish your routine with moisturiser.
A clear place for your evening serum
Your serum belongs between toner and moisturiser. Keep cleansing gentle and make daytime sunscreen part of the plan.
Cleanse and prep
Remove makeup and sunscreen, cleanse, then apply toner. Let skin dry before your active serum.
Apply your chosen THOME serum
Start with a small amount. Spread gently, keeping it away from the eyes, lips and broken skin. Introduce one new active at a time.
Finish with moisturiser
Let the serum absorb, then apply a comfortable moisturiser. With CPR, start twice weekly and increase gradually.
Protect the next morning
Use sunscreen as the final step of your morning skincare. Keep this step consistent while using active serums.
Introduce CPR and ABC separately. Once each suits your skin, use them on different evenings according to your priorities. Keep your starting routine to one active serum per night.

Your THOME questions, answered
What is the main difference between CPR and ABC?
CPR focuses on the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, texture and firmness with collagen, peptides and retinal. ABC focuses on visible redness, blemishes, oil balance and post-blemish marks with azelaic acid, niacinamide and centella.
What do CPR and ABC stand for?
CPR stands for Collagen, Peptides and Retinal. ABC stands for Azelaic acid, B3 vitamin and Centella asiatica. The names make each serum’s key ingredients easy to remember.
Which should I choose for oily, blemish-prone skin?
Choose ABC when excess oil, visible redness and blemish marks are your main concerns. Its lightweight formula combines 10% azelaic acid, 5% niacinamide and 1% centella.
Can I use CPR if I am new to retinal?
Introduce it gradually. Patch test first, start with a small amount on two evenings a week, and follow with moisturiser. Increase frequency only when skin stays comfortable, and apply sunscreen each morning.
Do I need both serums?
Start with the serum that matches your main concern. If you want both, introduce them separately before using them on different evenings. One focused serum is a useful starting point.
Should I rinse them off?
No. Both are leave-on serums. Apply after toner at night, let the serum absorb and follow with moisturiser.
