How to Use

Apply a small amount to clean, dry skin in the evening and let it absorb before your moisturiser. Begin twice weekly and build frequency as your skin tolerates it. Patch test first, and always wear SPF the next morning.

We use it at night after cleansing and keep C-Tetra by day, so pollution and UV are handled in the morning while retinal resurfaces overnight.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Customers praised this retinal treatment for smoothing fine lines and improving skin texture. Reviews noted "smoothest and clearest complexion" and reduced forehead lines. The gentle formula absorbs well without irritation, though some found the peach tone can stain. Most progressed from lower strengths successfully.

Amazing product!

Started with no 3 and moved onto number 6 this time. I’m using it every other day. Love the gentle peach tone to this product. Wake up with the smoothest and clearest complexion. Always use spf the next day. In general there is less congestion around my chin and my forehead lines look smoother.

Excellent product

I had been using a high street retinol brand and switched to this in the hopes of refund fine lines. After 2 weeks of using 3 times per week I can confidently say that this product works!

So far, so good!

I have only just started using this, but I haven’t experienced any irritation so far. The product spreads easily and evenly and absorbs nicely. It has a particular scent that seems a little old-fashioned, but I don’t mind it! I’m three weeks in so have just started using it every second night, no issues and no super visible results yet (but I’m aware retinal is a long-game product).

Gentle

I find this a lovely formula. Wanted to transfer to medik8 from DE/ Sunday Riley. Probable should have went with the #10 strength-wise given my skin tolerance. but t is a beautiful formula that does not need a heavy moisturiser on top. Definite skin improvement without skin flaking etc. Only thing I would change is the colour, found it can transfer and stain my cloths when washing my face the morning after. Will re purchase the #10 once I have used it up.
