Medik8 r-Retinoate Intense 50ml — Advanced Night Cream

At the heart of this innovative formula is an advanced combination of two powerful forms of vitamin A: patented retinyl retinoate and crystal-encapsulated retinaldehyde.

These complementary retinoids help support natural skin renewal and collagen production, targeting multiple visible signs of skin ageing.

Retinyl Retinoate is an innovative hybrid molecule combining retinol and retinoic acid. It helps support collagen synthesis, visibly smooth wrinkles, and improve skin elasticity.

Crystal-Encapsulated Retinaldehyde is an advanced vitamin A ingredient that promotes surface renewal and helps refine uneven texture, pigmentation, and fine lines.

The encapsulation technology helps stabilise retinaldehyde and deliver it gradually, supporting effective skincare with improved comfort.

The formula also features Drone-Targeted Copper Peptides, an advanced peptide delivery system designed to support processes associated with collagen production and improve visible skin firmness.

A nourishing ceramide complex helps strengthen the skin's natural lipid barrier, protecting against moisture loss and maintaining comfort during active retinoid treatment.

Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture, helping visibly plump the complexion and smooth dehydration lines.

Squalane provides additional nourishment, while vitamin E offers antioxidant support against environmental free radical damage.

Thanks to its rich yet silky texture, r-Retinoate Intense works as both an advanced vitamin A treatment and a nourishing night moisturiser, eliminating the need for an additional night cream in most routines.

With consistent use, skin appears visibly firmer, smoother, brighter, and more hydrated, while fine lines, deep wrinkles, and uneven skin tone become less noticeable.
