Morning Vitamin A
Retinyl retinoate is photostable so you can confidently use day and evening – we recommend the daily use of a moisturising sunscreen to support results such as Medik8 Advanced Ultimate SPF 50 and Medik8 Night Restore cream on top at night
R-Retinoate retinol cream contains unique, patented retinyl retinoate which is 8x more effective at combating the visible signs of skin ageing than retinol alone.
Collagen stimulation, quenching free radicals and skin hydration are the main elements you need to fight skin ageing. Contains 5 key actives in r-Retinoate:
- Medik8’s worldwide exclusive and patented encapsulated active, retinyl retinoate, is proven to be more effective yet less irritating than retinol to stimulate collagen synthesis and skin cell turnover.
- Vitamins C & E are powerful antioxidants to quench UV induced free radicals. In combination vitamin E & C synergistically boost the overall antioxidant / antiageing effect.
- Hyaluronic acid – To draw moisture to the skin and support skin structure keeping it hydrated and supple.
- Glycerin, an effective humectant, locks in moisture to support the skin’s natural barrier function.
Retinol – known as vitamin A, is medically acknowledged as the most effective ingredient in anti-ageing skincare. Helping to visibly reduce the signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles. It is named in multiple studies and vast consumer testimonials as a ‘must-have’ to boost collagen production and regain skin’s elasticity. Although it has proven records of strong efficacy on visible signs of skin ageing, it needs to be specially formulated to minimise skin irritation and is recommended during your night time anti-ageing routine.
r-Retinoate was developed to be applied in the morning and at night
