One of the most effective skincare products I’ve tried

Clear difference in the texture and smoothness of my skin after ~4 months of use. Make sure to build up use over time (I started with 3 and found that going from every 2nd or 3rd night and building up from there was tolerable for my skin but ymmv!)

Not sure

Didn’t use for long enough to know lasting effects

Good

Really nice retinal. Doesn’t burn the skin or dry it out. Will continue to use.

Great product

I have used the more gentle version before this and have just started using number 3 and so far it seems gentle and working well.

Good product, bad smell

This is more of a cream than a serum, which is good as it definitely doesn’t feel too drying. My skin is smooth and clear after a weeks use so would definitely repurchase for this. However the smell is terrible, gone off flowery smell, its strong and lingers so not one for me long term.

Unconvinced

The texture is more like a face cream than a serum, so you need a larger dollop of it than a regular serum to feel like you’re actually using enough. Even then I haven’t noticed any obvious benefits, so I’ve stopped bothering. I’ve loved and regularly use other medik8 products (advanced night restore and c-tetra serum) as well as other retinol serums such as Sunday Riley’s A+, but I don’t think this product compares. Maybe I’ve bought a low strength (which they advised to start) but I probably won’t continue using and will return to one of my previous brands.

Great

Medik8 products are superb in general but I love about this is that it has various degrees of Retinol concentration so you don't go through an excessive purging phase.

It is good but quite fragranced

I like the product but it is quite fragranced which I’m not keen on however I’m sure there are people that would like that and it is a great product overall.

Unsure

I use a few Medik8 products which I love. However I haven’t noticed much from this product, despite a few weeks use. I’ve used Sunday Riley’s high dose retinoid serum for many years, so it may be that this isn’t strong enough in comparison, but having consulted with medik8, they suggested I start at the bottom. So for anyone else, my guess is that it’s worth going stronger to see results of stick with a brand you know
