Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use r-Retinoate Day & Night if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
As a cosmetics company, we are unable to provide product advice in relation to medical conditions such as pregnancy or breastfeeding. We strongly recommend discussing the ingredients with your GP or midwife before use. We do, however, generally recommend avoiding vitamin A use while pregnant or breastfeeding, which is why we offer a plant-based vitamin A alternative - Bakuchiol Peptides.
How and when should I apply r-Retinoate Day & Night?
r-Retinoate Day & Night can be applied both day and night. After cleansing, massage 2 pumps evenly across the face, neck and décolletage.
At what age can I start to use this product?
All of our products are suitable for those aged 16+ - including r-Retinoate Day & Night.
Do I need to use a moisturiser on top of r-Retinoate Day & Night?
We would recommend using a moisturiser on top of r-Retinoate Day & Night as this formula is a creamy-textured serum, designed to be layered under a moisturiser morning and/or night.
What’s the difference between r-Retinoate Day & Night and r-Retinoate Intense?
r-Retinoate Day & Night is formulated with retinyl retinoate, a unique form of vitamin A that’s photostable (meaning it doesn’t lose its power when exposed to sunlight). This means it’s a vitamin A formula that can be used both morning and night for accelerated age-defying results. r-Retinoate Intense is a 5-in-1 night cream and the jewel in the Medik8 vitamin A crown. Combining 5 of Medik8's most advanced age-defying technologies in 1 extraordinary nighttime cream (retinyl retinoate, retinal, ceramides, peptides and hyaluronic acid), it delivers everything your skin needs for astonishing youth-renewing results in one simple but luxurious step. Remember; r-Retinoate Intense can only be used in the evening due to it containing retinal (which is not photostable).
