Medik8 R-Retinoate Day and Night - Intensive Hydrating, Plumping Vitamin A Face Serum - Reduces Fine Lines, Wrinkles - Vitamin C Face Serum - 1.7 oz

I studied options and became very excited about this product. Upon receiving it and beginning to use it, I continued my study of more reviews, and became concerned there might not be much product in a very expensive container. However, after using it once, maybe twice, I examined my skin in the mirror and the dark spot on my cheek was practically GONE. Then I noticed how beautiful my skin started to look after not very long. Just glowly, nice color, plumped. The Vitamin C and the emolients must be suoerb. I am not one to go into clinics for laser, I had CO2 lazer once and the recovery really slammed me (maybe it's not as hard now, that was over 10 years ago). Plus the team at the lazer center was actually sayimg mean stuff about my acne as they were working on me. Now I don't want to go into laser centers gain. Maybe this ptoduct is worth it 🤔. I found I was satisfied with the amount of product for the money. I didnt feel like there was hardly anything in the bottle. And it does make my skin so beautiful. But maybe I will go the trentinoin and cheaper L-ascorbic acid route to save money for a while.

The r-retinoate is gentle and non-irritating to my skin, so day and night use is easy. It helped unclog pores in a few weeks, dissolving all kinds of stuff and leaving my skin almost bump-free. Many of those bumps I thought were zits were actually clogged pores from years of not cleansing my skin at night and sleeping in my makeup and SPF. Horrors, I know better now and actually double-cleanse at night. My skin is clearer and fine lines and wrinkles are much less noticeable. Caveat, you might want to use this 2-3 times a week at night to get used to the active ingredients. Add a few drops of your favorite night oil or cream after 45 minutes, when the serum has penetrated, or mix the oil or night cream with one pump of the serum if you have any irritation on first use. Must use SPF 30 or more during daytime or you’ll actually make your skin worse and waste all the money you spent on this great serum!

Mi cara se ve más iluminada y bonita desde que uso esta crema es mejor que todas las que he usado antes

Truly a Godsend item. Quick, easy and less messy that my table top unit. My new friend that goes everywhere with me

Great non irritating retinal product.

Just what I needed

This was an interesting serum. Its main ingredient (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate) is essentially a form of Vitamin C that is fat soluble and penetrates well into your skin and acts as an antioxidant. This is not a cheap bottle of emollients like a lot of pricey moisturizers are- it’s effective but actually quite mild. You still have to wear sunblock big time with it, and I feel like with every product like this, you are going to be using it for a while before you see the solid results. Some do not like to use products with BHT in it, and this does have it on the ingredient list. It’s a preservative/stabilizer. My problem was that it has a lot of moisture barrier ingredients that made it feel heavy so I could only wear it at night. It did eventually absorb, but not something I wanted to wear during the day because I prefer watery gels and serums. I did notice my skin definitely felt softer, but it did not do much for my pores. For me it’s not a miracle cult item I will tell you to go buy right now, but if it’s within your budget, it’s not a bad product.

It’s such a small amount of product for the price

Dato che il costo in Amazon è molto più basso rispetto al costo effettivo, temevo fosse un falso, ed invece consegna rapidissima, prodotto integro e originale! Lo uso da poco, per cui non posso dare un’opinione sull’efficacia, ma la texture è piacevole e si assorbe velocemente. Lo metto di giorno e di sera e non ho avuto alcuna reazione negativa. Credo sia un siero eccellente considerato gli ingredienti. Soddisfatta!
