What is Medik8 C-Tetra Eye and what does it do?
Medik8 C-Tetra Eye is a lightweight, fast-absorbing vitamin C serum designed specifically for the delicate skin around the eyes. It brightens dark circles, smooths fine lines and wrinkles, deeply nourishes the skin, and helps protect against environmental damage. With regular use, it leaves the eye area looking refreshed, revitalised, and more youthful.
Is Medik8 C-Tetra Eye suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, Medik8 C-Tetra Eye is gentle, lightweight, and formulated to be safe for all skin types, including sensitive and delicate eye areas. It provides brightening and smoothing benefits without causing irritation.
How do I use Medik8 C-Tetra Eye?
Apply a small amount of Medik8 C-Tetra Eye to the orbital bone around your eyes, avoiding direct contact with the eyes. Gently tap it in with your ring finger until fully absorbed. Use it every morning and evening for best results. You can layer it under your regular eye cream or moisturiser, and remember to follow with SPF during the day to protect the delicate skin.
Can I use Medik8 C-Tetra Eye with other skincare products?
Yes, Medik8 C-Tetra Eye works well with other products when used correctly. Following Medik8’s philosophy, apply this vitamin C serum in the morning to brighten and protect the delicate eye area, then layer with your usual moisturiser or SPF. In the evening, Medik8 recommends using vitamin A products at night, so apply your retinol or other A-based treatments after your eye cream.
What is the difference between C-Tetra and C-Tetra Eye?
Medik8 C-Tetra is a stabilised vitamin C serum designed for the face. It brightens skin, smooths fine lines, and provides antioxidant protection for overall facial skin.
C-Tetra Eye, on the other hand, is specifically formulated for the delicate skin around the eyes. It targets dark circles, fine lines, and puffiness while being gentle enough for sensitive eye areas.
Can I use Medik8 C-Tetra Eye while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Vitamin C is generally considered safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, we recommend speaking with your Skin Expert before introducing any new skincare products.
How do I use C-Tetra and C-Tetra Eye together?
Apply C-Tetra Eye first to the delicate under-eye area, gently tapping it in with your ring finger. Then, apply C-Tetra to the rest of your face, avoiding the eye area. Use both in the morning to benefit from vitamin C’s brightening and antioxidant protection. Follow with your usual moisturiser and SPF during the day.
For evening routines, Medik8 recommends using vitamin A (retinol) products at night, so reserve C-Tetra and C-Tetra Eye for morning use only.
Is Medik8 C-Tetra Eye vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes, Medik8 C-Tetra Eye is completely vegan and cruelty-free. It contains no animal-derived ingredients and has not been tested on animals at any stage of development. The formulation is also free from parabens, alcohol, phthalates, and artificial fragrances, making it safe for sensitive skin.
