Ahh my one of my ultimate favourites, Medik8. A British brand with a range of AMAZING products. If you haven’t tried any of their products I highly recommend! @theglow_scientist recommended the Medik8 C-Tetra Lipid Vitamin C Antioxidant Serum to me a few months back, and I’m awfully pleased she did! 🙌
I ordered this from Look Fantastic along with one other Medik8 product. They sent the products to me and the C-Tetra bottle was scratched. So please excuse how it looks in the photo! I’m just pointing this out because I don’t want you all to think I’m a minger who doesn’t take care of my products – I do!
My Review
This is a non-irritating, beautiful, Vitamin C serum with added Vitamin E that helps protect your skin against free radicals whilst brightening your complexion, balancing your skin tone and stimulating collagen production.
This is hands down one of my favourite Vitamin C serums of all time. I just love everything about it – the scent (smells slightly citrusy), the feel on my skin and the results it gives.
This is a water free Vitamin C so naturally it feels slightly oily, but it’s certainly not greasy and will not leave your face looking like an oil slip. It absorbs so nicely and the results are fantastic, my skin looks glowing and bright – just healthy!
It’s great if you’re like me and have dry skin. It’s the oil content that really helps my skin feel comfortable.
Now, one bad thing, the dropper doesn’t seem to hold the product well and seems to drip out of the dropper without squeezing the pipette. It’s entirely possibly I’ve got a dodgy dropper, but just be aware because you will have a few drops of it land somewhere else other than your hands if you’re not quick enough.
Brands Product Description
The original, bestselling C-Tetra serum. A gentle yet effective lightweight vitamin C serum for restoring the appearance of skin radiance and minimising the visible signs of ageing.
Key Ingredients
Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (Vitamin C), Vitamin E, Maracuja Oil
How I use it
In the morning after cleansing, or after an exfoliating toner if I used one that day.
Would I repurchase?
I wholeheartedly recommend this. Do it. Buy it. You need to try it. I’m in love! If you’re new to Vitamin C this would be a good starting point, but if you’re an avid user you may also love this too.
How Much?
£35.00 / 30ml. This will last a long time because you only need 4 drops of it. It’s also been formulated to be 100% stable, so it will not degrade once open. Medik8 say this bottle will last six moths of daily usage. I agree – it goes on forever.
