Fantastic

First time for me to try retinal serum and I was nervous because I got sensitive dry skin. But this one is really gentle and easy to get on with, I can see the skin is brighter and pore getting smaller too, highly recommend to retinal starters!

Repurchased it

I have received this retinol serum in a goody bag last year and it is amazing! Doesn’t break me out or irritate my skin. It has a really nice scent, which is quite strong like gingerbread, so if you are sensitive to scents, this might not be for you. It’s quite pricey but I really love this.

Nice formula

With all these products, results aren’t instant. I’ve started using this product, weekly with moisturiser, then bi-weekly, then every other day, and so far I’ve had no skin irritation. Looking forward to move up the levels!

Good product

A brilliant formulation, feel I have seen the most results with this product out of any retinol I have tried. However it did break me out when I started using it.

The one retinal I trust

I’ve tried a few retinal serums and always come back to this one. I’ve used ones which have aggravated my skin causing it to burn and flake. This one is gentle enough to use often and to build through the levels. It doesn’t smell offensive. Really pleased with my purchase.

A beginner's option

I'm new to vitamin A and this is the perfect option for beginners. I've just started to use it and I can feel / see the effect; cleaner, smoother and brighter! I also really like Medik8 recommendations of spacing it out and balancing with other products like HA, Vitamin C etc.

Great

I tried so many cheaper vit A serum before and none of them worked, so i thought I treat myself to this one and so far so good. I didn’t have extreme purging and peeling like i did with the other ones I’ve tried, my skin looks a lot brighter and smoother. I’m 26 so I’m using it more as a anti aging preventative measure, however I’m pretty sure that it will help with slowing down the formation of fine lines, wrinkles etc. Well worth the money
