Vitamin C is a powerhouse antioxidant, renowned for its many skin-boosting and age-defying benefits. More specifically, this must-have ingredient works to protect against premature ageing, helps to brighten visible hyperpigmentation, supports collagen production, and even enhances the skin’s natural radiance.
At Medik8, they offer an extensive range of vitamin C formulas - each expertly designed to serve the specific needs of different skin types, concerns and routines.
So which vitamin C is the one for you?
C-Tetra:
Our original vitamin C serum, expertly formulated for gentle yet effective brightening results. Featuring tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (a stabilised and gentle form of vitamin C), it works to enhance the the look of skin’s natural radiance and protects against external stressors while reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation - all without the irritation that’s commonly associated with vitamin C use. In a recent study, 96% of sensitive skins found C-Tetra to be gentle on their skin. This bestselling formula is also lightweight yet nourishing enough to ensure all-day softness and glow.
