  • Retinol — this classic form of vitamin A helps to support collagen levels and enhance the skin's natural renewal cycle, for a smoother and more youthful-looking complexion.
  • Climbazole — boosts the activity of vitamin A in the skin, for more age-defying power without the common irritating effects.
  • Squalane — an almost skin-identical lipid that supports the natural skin barrier by nourishing the complexion.
  • Vitamin E — an antioxidant that protects against the ageing effects of free radicals and helps boost the power of retinol.

No artificial fragrance. No synthetic colours. Paraben free. Alcohol free.

How to use

Evening only. Phase it in gradually: twice a week for the first two weeks, every other night for the next two weeks, then every night.

  • After cleansing in the evening, massage 4 drops across the face, neck and décolletage.
  • Allow to absorb, then follow with a moisturiser.
  • Always use a sunscreen the following morning.

Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding — Medik8 generally advise avoiding vitamin A at these times, and recommend speaking to your GP or midwife. If you are new to it, patch test at least 24 hours before first use.

Vitamin A, stepped up.

A lightweight retinol serum with Medik8's Time Release technology, so the vitamin A is released slowly through the night rather than all at once. Three strengths — 3TR at 0.3% retinol, 6TR at 0.6% and 10TR at 1% — let you build tolerance and results over time.

Climbazole increases the power of the retinol without increasing irritation, while squalane and vitamin E keep the formula nourishing and stable.
