This is great for my mature, but still getting spots, skin! It's not overly harsh and my skin has reacted really well to it. Red blemishes appear lighter and the general structure of the surface of my skin feels smoother. I really like this product and expect to see really great results as I continue to use it.

I use it in the night as moisturiser. I would recommend it to every woman after 30s. The quality of the product is excellent

I use this product as a night serum and I am very pleased with the way my skin looks the day after. I also use a range of one products at the same time, but I could definitely tell a difference why exactly using retinol is good for me. I am in my middle twenties, I have mixed prone to acne skin and as a result of earlier acne periods, also with enlarged pores and light scarring. After using retinol (together with some acid products) I noticed my acne to completely vanish. Retinol increased the healing capacity of my skin, I have no irritation and the whole complexion is much healthier now. I can also add that I don't feel like I need to use any foundation anymore and I am very happy I started to use retinol already now, so I could invest into my skin now at early sages of aging. My skin has never looked healthier before and I do recommend medik8 retinol to my friends. Don't forget to prepare your skin with good cleansers and lotions for achieving best possible results!
