What is it?
Supercharged 0.6% Vitamin A Serum

What it does
Take your evening skincare to the next level with Intelligent Retinol 6TR. A lightweight vitamin A night serum that refines skin tone and texture to help visibly diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while you sleep. As the most effective anti-ageing ingredient, vitamin A also balances uneven skin tone and helps to decongest pores for a clearer complexion. Crafted with Time Release Technology, the innovative serum allows retinol to be “drip-fed” into the skin throughout the night; helping prevent unwanted irritation and dryness. Intelligent Retinol 6TR has been supercharged with climbazole, a compound proven to boost the results and anti-ageing benefits of vitamin A without increasing the irritation. The formula is also infused with squalane, a deeply hydrating ingredient specially selected to ensure skin is left looking instantly plumped and smoothed. That’s why we consider all our retinol products: “Intelligent Retinol”.

How to use
After cleansing in the evening, massage 4 drops of Intelligent Retinol 6TR across the face, neck and décolletage. Follow with your regular Medik8 moisturiser or facial oil. Retinol application should be phased in gradually. Use twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks, then every night.

Who's it for?
- Have a drier skin type and prefer nourishing squalane base
- Perfect for those who have already been using retinol in their regime and are looking for a higher strength.

What else you need to know
Retinol, also known as vitamin A, is often referred to as the gold standard in anti-ageing skincare. When applied to the skin, it is converted to retinoic acid, the molecule that helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This increase in retinoic acid visibly plumps and refines the skin for a more youthful looking complexion. Vitamin A can also help promote cell turnover to diminish the appearance of fine lines, winkles and uneven skin tone. Intelligent Retinol 6TR is boosted with climbazole; an exceptional ingredient that enhances the power of retinol by blocking the enzyme that breaks down retinoic acid in the skin. Retinoids are often notorious for being drying and irritating to skin, however Medik8’s Time Release Technology distributes the intelligent formula evenly and slowly throughout the night. This reduces any potential for irritation or redness. The intense serum also uses a high percentage of squalane; an exceptional moisturiser carefully selected to help counteract any dryness caused by retinol.
