A real breakthrough in anti-aging skin improvement that goes beyond retinol.
HOW IT WORKS
The product of 8 years of work, revolutionary molecule retinyl retinoate, is a hybrid of traditional retinol and retinoic acid. The encapsulated form is exclusive to Medik8 formulations. The molecule acts directly on skin cells to stimulate cellular regeneration and enhance collagen synthesis.
8 times more powerful than retinol, retinyl retinoate visibly diminishes fine lines and wrinkles, evens out skin tone and smoothes rough skin for a younger looking complexion. (2) It has been proven to be photostable, meaning it will not break down in sunlight like traditional forms of vitamin A.
It can be used both during the day and at night and is gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin. Retinyl Retinoate combines with collagen boosting Vitamin C, skin conditioning Vitamin E and hydrating Hyaluronic Acid in a next-generation, anti-aging formula to revitalize the skin.
(2) Retinate retinoate increased collagen synthesis 8 times more than retinol

MAIN INGREDIENTS
Retinyl Retinoate
8 times more powerful than retinol and stable both day and night, this non-irritating Vitamin A helps stimulate collagen synthesis and supports skin cell regeneration.
Multi-Weight Hyaluronic Acid
With a unique ability to attract and retain more than 1000 times its own weight in moisture, hyaluronic acid can draw moisture from the surrounding atmosphere and lower skin layers to the upper level of the epidermis. This keeps the complexion both nourished and supple.
Vitamin C
(Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate). A powerful antioxidant that stimulates collagen production and also inhibits collagen breakdown.
Vitamin E
An oil soluble antioxidant that is naturally present in the skin. Vitamin E protects the skin against free radicals and is regenerated by vitamin C for optimal power.
