d'Alba White Truffle Royal Intensive Serum 100ml

d'Alba White Truffle Royal Intensive Serum: Italian Truffle, Kept Calming and Restorative

d'Alba's Royal Intensive Serum is the brand's flagship, the product that built d'Alba's reputation for taking Italian white truffle from luxury food ingredient to serious skincare formulation. The 100ml bottle is generous for this price tier; most Korean truffle-based serums come in 30 to 50ml. The formula layers white truffle extract with other antioxidants (bamboo water, argan oil, rose water) in a clear gel serum that doesn't feel greasy despite the hydration focus.

The logic behind truffle in skincare: truffles are a dense source of amino acids, fatty acids, antioxidants, and peptide precursors. In practice, a well-formulated truffle serum delivers hydration and antioxidant support on the same scale as a good ginseng or galactomyces serum. d'Alba's 5-year investment in truffle formulation means the ingredient actually does something here, not just sits in the name. Users with dehydrated, dull, mature, or sensitive skin generally respond well.

What It Does

White truffle extract delivers amino acids and antioxidants that support cell repair and hydration. Supporting ingredients (bamboo water, rose water, argan oil) add soothing, antioxidant, and surface hydration effects. The gel-serum texture absorbs rapidly without residue, making it compatible with most morning makeup routines. Skin looks plumper and more radiant within 1 to 2 weeks of daily use.

Who It's For

• Dehydrated and dull skin: Primary target.
• Sensitive skin seeking antioxidant support: Gentle enough for daily use.
• Mature skin with fine lines from dryness: Plumps within weeks.
• Users who want luxury positioning at mid-premium price: 100ml for $42 is a deal.
• Layering base for richer routines: Works as a step before moisturizer.

FAQ

Is it worth the price?

At $42 for 100ml, yes. Most Korean "luxury" serums come in 30ml for this price. d'Alba's bottle size is generous for the truffle positioning.

Does it replace my moisturizer?

For oily and humid-climate users, possibly. For dry skin or winter use, layer a moisturizer on top. The Royal Serum is a serum, not an occlusive cream.

Can I use it with retinol or vitamin C?

Yes. It's gentle enough to layer with most actives. Apply d'Alba serum first (it's lighter), then your targeted active, then moisturizer.

d'Alba Royal Intensive vs Purifying Calming Serum?

Royal Intensive is the flagship, all-around hydration and antioxidant serum. Purifying Calming is more focused on sensitive, reactive, barrier-focused skin. For most users, Royal Intensive is the first product to try.

How long does 100ml last?

3 to 4 months with twice-daily use at 2 to 3 drops per application.
