The ultimate indulgence for the delicate eye area. Inspired by r-Retinoate, a revolutionary breakthrough in vitamin A technology that has been created to surpass the benefits of retinol in every aspect.

Retinyl Retinoate Medik8 features unique encapsulated retinyl retinoate, a proprietary patent. With up to 8 times the potency of retinol[1], this non-irritating form of vitamin A stimulates collagen production and promotes cell regeneration[1]. [1] H. Kim et al., Synthesis and in vitro biological activity of retinyl retinoate, a new hybrid retinoid derivative, Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry, 2008, 15;16(12), pp 6387-93. Hesperidin Also known as vitamin P, hesperidin is used as a brightening agent. It works by inhibiting the transport of melanin in the skin, helping to reduce the appearance of dark circles under the eyes and making the skin look fresher and more awake. Caffeine Recognised for its vasoconstrictive properties, caffeine is ideal for minimising the appearance of puffiness and dark circles. It helps reduce puffiness and shadows in the eye area, while providing a firmer, lifted appearance. Multi-weight Hyaluronic Acid Hyaluronic acid is noted for its exceptional ability to attract and retain more than 1,000 times its weight in water. It draws moisture from the deepest layers of the skin for intense hydration, leaving it nourished and revitalised. Glycerin Functioning as a natural humectant, glycerin captures moisture in the skin, keeping it hydrated and comfortable.
After your morning and evening cleansing routine, gently apply r-Retinoate Day & Night Eye Serum around the eye area, carefully avoiding the eyelids. It is essential to use sunscreen every morning while you are using vitamin A. Before starting to use the product, it is advisable to perform a patch test.
