Just been on a medik8 update training day.
I thought I would share with you some updates about the Medik8 vitamin C (antioxidants) products and which are suitable for who and directions of use.

Revolutionary Vitamin C ultra-stable antioxidant serums that help combat sun-induced and environmental free-radical damage to the skin.

Vitamin C has been shown to trigger collagen synthesis, increase the skin’s elasticity and density as well as improve the skin’s texture and brighten the complexion, whilst preventing skin photoaging, fine lines and hyperpigmentation.



Medik8 Preventative range:

For normal skin types – Medik8 C Tetra (under 30’s) / C Tetra Luxe (above 30’s) Medik8 Super C Ferulic (40+)

For oily skin types – Medik8 C15  (water based)
For dry skin types - Medik8 C Tetra (under 30’s) / C E Luxe (above 30’s) / Super C ferulic (40+)
For Sensitive/rosacea skin types - Medik8 C Tetra (under 30’s) / C Tetra Luxe (above 30’s)
For Acne skin types – Medik8 C15 (water based)

If you are using medik8 water-based Serums as your corrective product in the morning apply C  –Tetra Luxe  / C Tetra (oil based) after corrective product then Hydr8 SPF25 or your preferred SPF hydrator/sunscreen.

The rule of thumb is water-based product 1st then oil based then creams
