Review: Great product, great results - A great product that's not advertised enough! Most don't even know it exists!
Review: Medik8 r-Retinoate Intense – Expensive Skincare Product but An Excellent Retinol Based Face Cream - This night face cream arrived in very premium gift packaging and would be a beautiful skincare present to receive. The bottle is contained within a heavyweight, flip open black cardboard box which is held together with magnetic closures and protected with its own cardboard sleeve which keeps it all together. There is also a ribbon pull tab to extract the bottle from the packaging and there is a comprehensive information leaflet included too. Unpacking this face cream is an experience in itself and I think the presentation is definitely luxurious. The plastic pump dispensing bottle contains 50ml of product and it has a nice smooth consistency with a pale peach colour and a pleasant scent. It applies smoothly and readily absorbs into my skin without leaving any sticky or greasiness residues. It is free from any artificial fragrances. The clever cream combines various ‘technologies’ which are patented and the resultant cream focuses on vitamin A and its anti-ageing benefits. It uses the following ‘ingredients’ to help achieve smoother and more even skin as well as incorporating a moisture boost in order to leave your skin feeling soft: • Encapsulated retinyl retinoate which is x8 more powerful than standard retinol (exclusive to Medik8) • Crystal encapsulated retinaldehyde which works x11 faster than retinol • Ceramide complex which deeply restores and nourishes • Drone targeted copper peptides to support collagen producing cells for younger looking skin • Hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate, smooth and visibly plump the skin The face cream is suitable for sensitive skin and hasn’t cause any adverse reactions with use. It effectively softens and smooths and I have really enjoyed using the product. I have been using the face cream at night as suggested after cleansing and massaged into my face and neck. Since this contains retinaldehyde, which is very potent, it is best to phase in the use of the cream gradually and be sure to apply sunscreen to your skin during daylight hours to protect against sensitivity as the use does make your skin more vulnerable. Do be sure to follow the instructions to ensure safe usage. Priced at £229 as a one-off purchase or £206.10 if you sign up to desertcart’s subscribe and save scheme at the time of reviewing, this is a premium skincare product and is an investment in your skincare routine, but I do actually think that it is making visible signs of improvement to my skin appearance, and the beautifully designed luxury packaging makes it a wonderful gift. So, if you afford it, I would definitely recommend this face cream and the Medik8 range of products.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Very expensive and heavily scented
*by F***E on 21 February 2024*

This anti aging cream is nice but worth the £200 price tag? I'm not so sure. The product comes nicely presented in a gift box. The cream has a foundation style look with a peach colour. The perfume used in the cream I find incredibly overpowering. The scent reminds me of my nans floral perfume. The cream comes with a warning about the strong ingredients used and has to be applied gradually in intervals before it can be used every day. Definite good results but nothing so amazing to warrant such a high price in my opinion, wouldn't recommend.
