Medik8 r-Retinoate Day & Night – The revolutionary vitamin A serum you can use morning and night for accelerated age-defying results without irritation.
Most retinoids break down in sunlight, limiting them to nighttime use only. r-Retinoate is different. Powered by Medik8's patented encapsulated retinyl retinoate – developed over 8 years of expert research – this photostable formula delivers visible brightening, smoothing and revitalising benefits around the clock. The result? You get twice the vitamin A exposure compared to traditional night-only retinoids, with results to match.
This luxurious multi-step-in-one serum combines the 8x power of retinyl retinoate with 7% stabilised vitamin C (the same concentration as Medik8's C-Tetra serum) and plumping hyaluronic acid. Three powerhouse ingredients working in harmony to visibly improve skin tone, texture and radiance – all while remaining gentle enough for sensitive skin types.
