Vitamin C and Retinol
Hi! I currently use Skin Essentia Moisturizer 5 and am thinking about switching to Medik 8 and using Vitamin C serum in the morning and retinol at night. Is that a good plan? What strength should I use for the retinal cream, and what do I apply on top of the vitamin C serum?368 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 3 monthsHi Beata! 👋 Thank you for your questions! Yes, vitamin C in the morning and retinal in the evening is a great plan. Since you are already using Skin EssentiA Moisturiser 5, your skin is probably used to vitamin A. If you don’t usually get easily irritated, you can therefore choose Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6 ( lyko.com/no/medik8/medik8-crystal-retinl-6-cream-30ml ). However, if you have sensitive skin or want to introduce retinal a bit more gently, Crystal Retinal 3 ( lyko.com/no/medik8/medik8-crystal-retinal-3-serum-30-ml ) is also a good option. Feel free to start with 2–3 evenings a week and gradually increase as your skin gets used to it. An example of a routine could look like this: 🌞 Morning: Cleanse → Medik8 C-Tetra Advanced → Medik8 Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream ( lyko.com/no/medik8/medik8-total-moisture-daily-facial-cream-50-ml ) → sun protection SPF 30–50. 🌙 Evening: Cleanse → Medik8 Crystal Retinal → Medik8 Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream. Also remember to avoid acid exfoliation on the same evening you use retinal. Hope this helps you, and good luck with your new routine! 🥰 Have a really nice day!

Hi
I have started using this vitamin C. My question is, do I need to use toner or some other hydrating serum before or after this? Thanks for the answer641 views- The user's roll: Skin therapist at Lyko. The comment was made 6 monthsHi Ana 😊 When you use this, you don’t necessarily need to use toner, but it can feel nice if you want a little extra moisture. If your skin feels tight or dry, a light moisturizing serum can be applied after C-Tetra, which should always be applied to clean skin first. Then finish with your usual moisturizer and SPF during the day. Feel free to wait a minute between C-Tetra and the next product so it can absorb properly, and avoid strong exfoliating acids right after to prevent irritating your skin. Wishing you a great day! 💌

Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (also known as THDA or C-Tetra) is a powerful and stabilized form of vitamin C. At the strength of 20% vitamin C, the serum works quickly to visibly even skin tone and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.
Phyto Exosomes
Benefit: Strengthen the skin barrier
More powerful than natural plant extracts and already encapsulated for fast delivery, this powerful extract is rich in proteins, lipids and messenger molecules to help soothe and support the skin barrier. This addition means that our powerful 20% vitamin C is as gentle as possible.
Acetyl Zingerone
Benefit: Omni-antioxidant and vitamin C booster
This innovative antioxidant provides multifunctional defense for maximum daily antioxidant protection against environmental stress. At the same time, it specifically enhances the benefits of THDA for accelerated lightening results.
Hyaluronic acid
Benefit: Moisturizing and firming effect
Hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the skin to instantly tighten and hydrate, waking the skin up for the day.
2% N-Acetyl-Glucosamine (NAG)
Benefit: Barrier-supporting, non-acidic exfoliant for smoother skin
