Frequently Asked Questions

What makes your eye cream different from regular moisturisers?
The skin around your eyes and lips is thinner than other parts of your face and body, thus requiring specialised formulations to more carefully balance concentrations of active ingredients and prevent irritating your dermis without sacrificing efficacy. Medik8’s Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye Cream is both lightweight and nourishing. It smoothes the appearance of crow’s feet, lifts and de-puffs the eye area and brightens dark circles, leaving you with a refreshed look by morning.
Can Medik8 products be used interchangeably for eyes and lips?
While some serums that harness the power of peptides easily transfer to your eyes and lips, our cosmeceutical products are too intense for these areas. We recommend using dedicated eye products that allow you to incorporate vitamins A and C without inflaming or sensitising your skin.
Why use specialised products for crow's feet and smile lines?
While your smile is your greatest accessory, over time, your skin’s laxity is less able to snap back to where it naturally falls and starts to reflect a life well-lived. Eyes and lip products offer skin-refining ingredients like vitamin A and vitamin C complexes that are innovatively formulated to help increase skin turnover and combat free radical damage without overstimulating the delicate skin around the orbital bone, melomental folds and vermillion (lip’s skin).
How do Medik8 products reduce dark circles and puffiness?
Lip and eye products are bolstered by an innovative blend of high-performing ingredients that work to add a deep wash of hydration or refine the topmost layer of skin to help even out skin tone and maintain a natural plump volume.
How does your lip product prevent and heal chapped lips?
Our lip care products are infused with moisturising ingredients that create an occlusive seal to prevent trans-epidermal water loss and other biomimetic ingredients, such as squalane, that mimic your skin's lipids while adding a deep dose of hydration. With consistent use, your pout will repair cracked lips and wounds and retain a natural rosy hue.
How do I incorporate eyecare products into my skincare routine?
Here’s a guide on how to use Medik8’s skincare products for your eyes: Firming gels and serums — After cleansing in the morning and/or evening, gently apply the product around the eye contour. Be sure to avoid the eyelids. Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye Cream — After cleansing in the evening, apply the product to the area around your eyes. Since it contains vitamin A, which can be potent, gradually introduce the product into your routine by using it twice a week for the first two weeks then every other night for the next two weeks. Once your skin adjusts, you can apply it nightly. Remember to follow it up with sunscreen every morning. You can opt to use our Advanced Day Eye Protect eye cream for extra protection.
What precautions should I take when using skincare products for eyes?
Before using any new eye product, perform a patch test by applying a small amount to an area like your inner arm. Check for any signs of irritation or reaction after 24 hours to help you assess if the product is suitable for your skin.
