Product Information

Full details

The Medik8 r-Retinoate Day & Night Eye Serum is designed for adults seeking an advanced anti-aging treatment for the delicate eye area. Its primary benefit is the inclusion of r-Retinoate, a potent retinoid ester that effectively firms and brightens skin without the traditional irritation often associated with retinol. While it offers versatile day and night application, users must remember to consistently pair it with daytime sun protection to maintain skin health and product efficacy.

FAQs

Is this safe for sensitive skin?

Yes, the r-Retinoate molecule is specifically engineered to be more gentle than traditional retinol, making it suitable for sensitive skin.

Can I use this with other active ingredients?

It is generally compatible with most moisturizers, but avoid layering it with other potent acids or strong retinoids to prevent irritation.

How long does one bottle last?

Depending on usage frequency, a standard bottle typically lasts 2 to 3 months when using the recommended small amount per application.

Do I need to wait between application and moisturizer?

While not strictly required, waiting a minute for the serum to fully sink into the skin helps ensure better absorption of subsequent products.

Why is SPF required with this serum?

Retinoids increase cell turnover, which can make the new, fresh skin cells more vulnerable to sun damage if not properly protected.

Troubleshooting

Mild tingling upon initial application

This is common with retinoids; try spacing out applications to every other night until your skin acclimates.

Makeup pilling over the serum

Ensure the serum is fully absorbed (wait 60 seconds) before applying concealer or other products.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To incorporate this serum into your regimen, always start with a clean, dry face. Dispense a small amount onto your ring finger and gently pat it along the orbital bone—the circular area surrounding the eye—avoiding direct contact with the eyes themselves.

Order of Application: Apply after cleansing and before your primary moisturizer.
Sun Care: Because the serum contains a retinoid, applying broad-spectrum sunscreen every morning is mandatory to protect the treated skin from UV sensitivity.
Storage: Keep the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the active ingredients.
