What makes Medik8 Intelligent Retinol “intelligent”?
Medik8 Intelligent Retinol Eye TR smooths and rejuvenates the delicate eye area with a high-performance retinol formula. Enriched with climbazole to boost retinol activity and Time-Release technology, it delivers long-lasting, gentle results overnight. Unlike other retinol formulations, Medik8 Intelligent Retinol is “intelligent” because it combines retinol and retinaldehyde with pH-activated delivery, releasing actives only when the skin is ready. This ensures visible anti-ageing benefits while minimising the irritation and sensitivity often associated with retinol use. Medik8 Intelligent Retinol offers a smarter, more effective approach to eye care for smoother, firmer, and younger-looking skin.
What is the difference between Medik8 Intelligent Retinol Eye TR and Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye?

Retinol is usually considered a great option for vitamin A beginners. Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye is made with retinal and combines it with ceramides for anti-ageing benefits plus deep hydration and barrier support, making it ideal for dry or mature skin.
