Medik8 Daily Radiance Vitamin C – The bestselling two-in-one moisturiser that delivers your daily vitamin C, SPF 30 protection and hydration in a single, beautifully textured step.

Why juggle three separate products when one does it all? This lightweight day cream combines 7% stabilised vitamin C with broad-spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen, protecting your skin against up to 80% of visible ageing caused by UV exposure. Clinically proven to instantly brighten and hydrate in just 1 use, it's the simplest way to tick off the two most important anti-ageing steps every morning.

The secret is tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate – a 100% stable, lipid-soluble form of vitamin C that penetrates effectively without the irritation of pure L-ascorbic acid. Combined with hyaluronic acid, glycerin and vitamin E, the formula delivers all-day hydration while defending against pollution, blue light and environmental stressors. And with its cashmere-soft texture that melts into skin without any sticky residue, 94% agree it feels more like a moisturiser than a sunscreen.

7% tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate = 100% stable vitamin C that won't oxidise or turn orange
Broad-spectrum SPF 30 = protects against both UVA (ageing) and UVB (burning) rays
Non-greasy, cashmere texture = melts into skin without white cast or sticky finish
Perfect makeup base = smoothing and radiance-boosting benefits create an ideal canvas
Vitamin E synergy = boosts vitamin C's antioxidant power for optimum results

FAQS

What's the difference between Daily Radiance Vitamin C and C-Tetra Cream? +

Both contain Medik8's stabilised vitamin C for brightening and antioxidant protection, but they serve different purposes:

Daily Radiance Vitamin C: Contains 7% vitamin C plus SPF 30 – designed as an all-in-one morning product that protects against UV damage
C-Tetra Cream: Contains 3% vitamin C without SPF – a nourishing vitamin C moisturiser that can be used morning or evening, ideal for those new to vitamin C or who prefer a separate sunscreen

If you want to simplify your routine with one product that covers vitamin C, SPF and moisturisation, Daily Radiance is the better choice.

Does this protect against both UVA and UVB rays? +

Yes – Daily Radiance Vitamin C provides broad-spectrum SPF 30 protection against both:

UVA rays (ageing rays): Penetrate deep into skin, causing wrinkles, pigmentation and premature ageing
UVB rays (burning rays): Cause sunburn and contribute to skin cancer risk

The advanced UV filter complex is carefully selected for high performance and stability in sunlight.

When will I see results? +

The brightening and hydrating effects are instant from the first use – clinically proven.

For cumulative anti-ageing benefits:

7 days: Visibly brighter skin, skin feels firmer
2-4 weeks: More even complexion, improved radiance
8-12 weeks: Visible improvement in fine lines and overall skin tone

Can I wear makeup over this? +

Absolutely – in fact, many users find it creates the perfect makeup base. The cashmere-soft texture absorbs fully without leaving any sticky or greasy residue, so foundation and concealer apply smoothly on top.

The radiance-boosting effect also gives skin a healthy glow that shows through makeup.

Is this enough sun protection on its own? +

For everyday activities (commuting, working indoors, brief outdoor exposure), SPF 30 provides excellent protection when applied generously.

However, if you're spending extended time outdoors, at the beach, or in intense sun, you may want to:

Reapply every 2 hours
Layer additional SPF 50 on top
Wear protective clothing and seek shade

What does it smell like? +

Daily Radiance Vitamin C has a light, natural citrus scent from the essential oils (grapefruit, lemon, bergamot, geranium). It's uplifting and fresh without being overpowering, and fades quickly after application.

The formula contains no artificial fragrance – only naturally derived scent from the botanical ingredients.
