Medik8 Retinol Eye TR
A Japanese university’s study has recently published findings that prove Tetrahexadecyl Ascorbate (known as C-Tetra) is effective at preventing photo-ageing. Medik8 has now harnessed this potent form of vitamin C to create and new line of serums that will improve skin’s texture, brighten the complexion, as well as increase the skin’s elasticity and density.
Founder of Medik8, Elliot Isaacs, graduated from The University of Leeds Pharmacology and Physiology Department. His father was a chemist so Isaacs was born into the family business. In the late 90’s, Isaacs’ sister developed a skin redness that refused to go away. After traveling in Asia and exploring the world, Elliot decided to investigate his sister’s skin problem and make a better product for her. Weeks turned to months in the small laboratory in his father’s pharmacy, but developer Elliot Isaacs succeeding in calming his sister’s redness. It was because of this accomplishment that Isaac made the decision to get more involved in skincare.

Luckily for us, he began to manufacture his cream and develop more skin products using his revolutionary formulas. Now Medik8 has a full anti-aging range that does everything from reducing age spots and balancing oil levels on the face to inhibiting hair growth and lightening dark circles. Eva Longoria and Mischa Barton are known to have used the brand religiously.
The Medik8 Pretox Infin8 is extremely popular and is known for producing results similar to Botox. We absolutely adore the entire collection here at BATD HQ, but if we must choose, our two favorites have to be the Retinol Eye TR, a professional strength under-eye night serum and the poreCleanse, a pore refining exfoliated L-mandelic acid wash for oily & combination skin.
