Ingredients

Retinyl retinoate
Patented, encapsulated retinyl retinoate, exclusive to Medik8.

8 times more powerful than retinol. This non-irritating vitamin A helps stimulate collagen synthesis and supports skin cell regeneration.

Hesperidin
Hesperidin, also known as vitamin P, is used as a brightening agent because it helps suppress the transport of melanin in the skin, leading to a reduction in dark circles for more awake-looking eyes.

Caffeine
Ideal for reducing puffiness and darkness under the eyes. Caffeine is known as a vasoconstrictor, which can help reduce dark circles while visibly firming and lifting the entire eye area.

Multi-weight Hyaluronic Acid
With a unique ability to attract and retain over 1,000 times its own weight in water, hyaluronic acid draws moisture from the lower layers of the skin to provide intense hydration.

Glycerin
As a natural humectant, glycerin retains water in the skin to keep it hydrated and comfortable.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does it work?

The result of eight years of work, the revolutionary molecule retinyl retinoate combines traditional retinol and the active form of vitamin A, retinoic acid. The encapsulated form is exclusive to Medik8 formulations.

8x more powerful than retinol[1], retinyl retinoate works directly without needing to be converted into retinoic acid like other forms of vitamin A. It helps stimulate cell regeneration and support collagen synthesis, resulting in a visibly smoother, firmer and more radiant eye area.

While retinyl retinoate is incredibly powerful, it's proven to be extremely gentle on the skin, making it perfect for use around the delicate eye area. This form of vitamin A is also photostable, meaning it doesn't break down in sunlight and can be used both day and night.

Humectants multi-weight hyaluronic acid and glycerin infuse hydration into the skin for visibly smoother, more hydrated eye contours.

r-Retinoate Day & Night Eye Serum is optimized for the eyes, with two additional eye-active ingredients, hesperidin and caffeine, which work to reduce the appearance of dark circles, resulting in a visibly fresher eye area.

Avoid direct contact with eyes. If product gets into eyes, rinse thoroughly with water. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Consult a doctor if irritation persists. Use only as directed. Do not apply to broken or inflamed skin. Contains vitamin A, which may increase skin sensitivity to the sun. Avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen during the day while using this product and for a week afterwards.

The science behind it

Retinyl retinoate is one of the few forms of vitamin A that is active in sunlight; it can be used both morning and evening. This means you can get vitamin A benefits at both ends of the day. Retinyl retinoate is particularly good at protecting our delicate collagen from degradation in UV light.
