Size: 30ml
Medik8 C-Tetra is a revolutionary ultra-stable vitamin C serum to help combat the sun-induced damage to the skin, trigger collagen synthesis, increase the skin's elasticity and density as well as improve the skin's texture and brighten the complexion.
Medik8 C-Tetra uses only Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorabte, the most potent and highly stable form of vitamin C available. Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate is a very stable, oil-soluble vitamin C ester which has anti-oxidant activity, inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Topical use can mitigate the damaging effects of UV exposure. Studies have shown it to help stimulate collagen production as well as promote a more even skin tone by clarifying and brightening effect the skin through inhibiting melanogenesis (the production of pigment). Unlike ascorbic acid, it will not exfoliate or irritate skin.
Benefits of Medik8 C-Tetra:
Provides an indispensible weapon against skin photo-ageing and constitutes a fabulous complement to sun protection. Once applied to the skin, C-Tetra absorbs immediately and unlike creams with SPF cannot be washed off.
- Adds a luminous glow to the skin, evens out skin tone and leaves it supple, bright and well hydrated
- Protects against free-radicals, high energy particles which damage collagen, the skin's natural scaffolding
- Supports your sun protection regime, minimising the risk of carcinogen changes in the skin and preventing premature skin photo-ageing
- Helps to stimulate the synthesis of collagen and elastin, causing the skin to tighten and effacing minor lines and wrinkles
- Alleviates skin inflammation and ultraviolet radiation-induced erythema
- Actively fights against hyperpigmentation and post-acne blemishes
- Increases physical resistance to damage of capillary veins and thereby has a beneficial influence on redness-prone skin

- Improves the lipid barrier of the skin and stimulates the production of ceramides
- Thanks to the presence of Jojoba Oil, C-Tetra® does not over-dry the skin leaving it smooth and lightly hydrated
