Medik8 C-Tetra® is a revolutionary ultra-stable vitamin C serum which helps combat sun-induced damage to the skin, trigger collagen synthesis, increase the skin’s elasticity and density as well as improve the skin’s texture and brighten the complexion.

C-Tetra has been shown to have upto 4 times the potency L-ascorbic acid and other derivatives such as MAP (magnesium ascorbyl phosphate).
d-Alpha Tocopherol (natural vitamin E) 1.0% - antioxidant, helps to protect skin from free radical damage and act as network antioxidant with vitamin C.

Customer Reviews
- Miracle8! Review by jo
-
I bought Medic8 products from Dermacare Direct mainly because of the brilliant videos with the nurse talking about how to use them. It saved me a £30 consultation with a therapist which was my other option if I wanted to buy them from a clinic. They came fast which is unusual for free delivery and I have been literally blown away by the results. I have had chronic acne for 26 years and became a nutritionist whilst searching for a way to heal my skin from the inside. Having worked on this for 6 years without results I resorted to products to see if I could support the structure of my skin externally. One week later my skin is almost clear - I am so happy. Anyone with acne knows how debilitating it is and particularly so for a therapist! I think medic8 should be renamed Miracle8!Quality
If anyone is interested in what combination I used it is the following:-
Betacleanse, Betagel, Retinol, C Tetra, Hydr8 B5, Hydr8 Beta.
