Medik8 Retinol 3TR

Great starter retinol serum

Sorry this product is out of stock. If you want to be notified when product is back in stock please enter your email address below.

If you want to try retinol for the first time, this is a great place to start. Retinol stimulates the growth of new collagen – for firmer, smoother skin, fewer wrinkles, reduced pigmentation and more even skin tone. It can also make older skin renew itself more quickly, balance oil production and decongest pores.

It contains 0.3% pure retinol, the optimum level for improvements in the skin with minimal irritation. It releases the retinol gradually into your skin overnight, making it easier to tolerate than if it were all dumped at once. It feels slightly oily, as it’s in a jojoba oil base but it won’t upset oily skin because jojoba oil is really light and hydrating. This is a step-up system, so once your skin has acclimatised to this – maybe after a couple of bottles worth – you can move onto the Retinol 6TR for more pronounced results.

Description

If you want to try retinol for the first time, this is a great place to start. Retinol stimulates the growth of new collagen – for firmer, smoother skin, fewer wrinkles, reduced pigmentation and more even skin tone. It can also make older skin renew itself more quickly, balance oil production and decongest pores.

  • The ‘3’ of 3TR shows it contains 0.3% pure retinol, the optimum level for improvements in the skin with minimal irritation. The TR stands for Time Release – the formula releases the retinol gradually overnight, making it easier to tolerate than if it were all dumped into your skin at once.
  • It feels slightly oily, as it’s in a jojoba oil base but it won’t upset oily skin because jojoba oil is really light and hydrating.

Use just a couple of drops at night – twice a week for two weeks, then three times a week for three weeks, so your skin can acclimatise to it without upset. This is a step-up system, so once your skin has acclimatised to this – maybe after a couple of bottles worth – and become ‘retinized’, you can move onto the Retinol 6TR, which is a bit stronger, for more pronounced results.

  1. Great – taking years off

  2. This is wonderful and powerful stuff. Improves my teenage daughter’s acne amazingly and is also a great boost for my middle aged skin.

  3. I find droppers difficult to use but the lotions seems nice. Takes a while to be absorbed and it’s too early tell with it has made any improvement to my skin.

  4. I love this product. You do not have to use a lot but it has certainly made my wrinkles around my eyes appear finer

  5. The texture of this product is lovely and sinks in quickly. My skin looked really glowing next day. A great addition to my beauty routine

Hi Alice – what are your thoughts on the skincare ranges sold in aesthetic clinics such as Obgai, are they worth the money or can I buy something similar from brands like Medik8, etc.? Thanks.

Yes, they're absolutely worth the money. These brands – we call them clinical, medical-grade or cosmeceutical – have strong and effective products that can only be sold from clinics, so that your practitioner can advise what's best for you and how to use it, and then keep an eye on how you get on with the products, and adjust your regime accordingly. Medik8 actually also falls into this category – though it can be purchased from some skincare retailers, too – but it's a great brand with very effective products that a lot of practitioners like and sell to their patients. We have some Medik8 products on the TTG shop here....
