Product Description
The kit makes it easy to follow Medik8's CSA philosophy, applying vitamin c every morning followed by sunscreen, vitamin a every night for youthful-looking skin and using a radiant cleanser for smoothing and brightening results.
Medik8 claim the kit addresses 90% of anti-ageing skincare concerns and it's a great way to streamline a skincare routine.
Proving just how hardworking the Medik8 kit is, 42 reviewers have rated it an overall score of five out of five. One person said that after 'two weeks' of use, their skin looked 'well-groomed' and more 'elastic'.
A second customer wrote: "I started using the Medik8 around 3 weeks ago. Have already seen a vast improvement in my skin. Wrinkles are fading and my acne has calmed down."
And a third person was particularly enamoured with the serum, sharing: "These are all great products - they work, and they feel luxurious to use. I particularly love the vitamin C serum - it feels like a treat and smells gorgeous. The C-Tetra Serum works to visibly brighten uneven skin tone and reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles, while remaining gentle on sensitive skin.
Elizabeth Arden is another highly rated anti-ageing skincare brand and Boots have slashed the price of their Retinol Renewal Gift Set by £25.67. Typically retailing for £77, it is now on sale for £51.33 and includes a hydrating Retinol + HPR Ceramide Water Cream, a Retinol Ceramide Line Erasing Eye Cream and the iconic Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules.
Saying they have seen 'fantastic results' from the Medik8 kit, someone else has explained: "Face wash leaves the skin very smooth and not tight. Vit C is absorbed into the skin beautifully, and my skin looks brighter. SPF moisturiser sinks in well, not drying or chalky. Retinol sinks in well, no pilling with oil or night cream on top, no irritation. A great kit. Results are fantastic my skin is brighter, colour more even, smoother, softer and firmer."
But this wasn't the case for three star reviewer, that left a comment saying: "Overall ok with products but not seen any improvement to date. The cleanser is very drying and it says use morning and night which is way too much! Was then advised to use once a week which should have been clearer from the outset. I don't have sensitive skin either. Instructions not clear."
Paula's Choice Anti-Ageing Foaming Cleanser is £27 and shoppers call it their 'favourite' as it 'completely removes my make up without leaving my skin tight and dry.' They also say it 'reduces the appearance of my fine lines, plumps out my skin and leaves me with an ageless look' .
A shopper aged 60+ explained how they haven't delayed in purchasing now the Medik8 Retinol Kit is £80, writing: "I love all Medik8 products so grabbed this kit when it was on offer. Great value and all the products are top quality."

GP shares the £10 Boots item that can 'eliminate' summer chafing

Shoppers said they experienced 'no chafing at all' once using this 'liberating' roll-on product With a heatwave baking parts of the UK this weekend, Brits may be experiencing some uncomfortable feelings down below when sweaty skin rubs against clothes. This can lead to painful problems, especially for those with sensitive skin. Dr Raj Arora, an NHS GP with expertise in women's health, shared an Instagram video with a product that hundreds of women "swear by" during the hot summer months. She said: "Chafing is really common, especially in the summer when you're wearing shorts and your thighs are rubbing. There's no shame in it; it happens to all of us." "You can get this called Megababe. This contains aloe vera, vitamin E. It hydrates the skin, comes in a roll-on. Just pop it in your bag and reapply." The Thigh Rescue product is available in Boots stores and, at the time of writing, the 60ml pack (normally £12) is discounted to £9.60 in a 20% off sale. There are similar products available elsewhere such as Lanacane Anti-Chafing Gel (£7.99 at Superdrug) and KKwoter's Anti Chafe Stick (£5.99 from Amazon). But, the anti-friction stick by Megababe has lots of glowing reviews as well from over 1,550 customers. One said: "I wish I'd found it years ago as it is amazing. Used it on holiday and got no chafing at all!" Another added: "Glides on easily with no visible residue and no scent. I could have reapplied but didn't need to. I will keep this for future sweaty walks or any other needs!" Someone else shared how the product has "changed my life." They wrote: "The first time I used this, I was anxious because I didn't see how it could work for me when nothing else had. I did 10,000+ steps that day and didn't have to reapply - I was amazed. "I now use it as religiously as deodorant. It's liberating to not have to wear shorts under every outfit after wearing them for years. It's silly but I always felt the shorts were something I had to wear as a fat person and I just wished I could go outside without them, and now I can!" And, one more commented: "This is seriously the best product, it keeps my skin healthy and protected from chafe and rash. I recommend this to friends all the time!" A few people had issues, as one reported: "The formula doesn't seem to take into account sweat and high temperatures, only friction. It wears off after 15 minutes." Another claimed it "did not work at all." The NHS recommends consulting a doctor if you experience persistent, recurrent, or severe symptoms of chafing. They may recommend further tests or treatments, including topical corticosteroids or antibiotics

Morrisons & Ultrasun sun cream warning as safety test failed

Ultrasun Family SPF30, which costs £28 for 150ml and is marketed as being 'perfect for the whole family' and 'especially suitable for children and those with sensitive skin', failed to meet minimum sun cream UVA protection levels in two separate tests by Which?. Morrisons Moisturising Sun Spray SPF30 also failed to meet minimum SPF protection levels in two tests. (Image: Which? PA Wire) Ultrasun passed the UVB SPF part of the test but failed on UVA testing, scoring 9.1 and then 9.5 in a retest. Which? required a score of 10 or more for a pass. Morrisons Moisturising Sun Spray product passed UVA tests but failed the UVB/SPF tests with scores of 25.7 and then 20.7 – short of the 30 or more needed to pass. Which? tested 15 popular sun creams this year, including Boots, Garnier and Nivea as well as supermarket own-brand products. Aldi's Lacura Sensitive Sun Lotion SPF50+, which costs £2.99 for 200ml, was found to protect the skin from both UVA and UVB rays. Cien Sun Spray 30 SPF High (£3.79/200ml), from fellow discounter Lidl, also passed all SPF and UVA testing, with Which? describing it as a 'solid option for affordable and reliable sun protection'. Some 11 other products, including Boots Soltan Protect & Moisturise Suncare Spray SPF30 (£5.50 for 200ml), Nivea Sun Protect & Moisture Lotion SPF30 (£7.90 for 200ml) and Sainsbury's Sun Protect Moisturising Lotion SPF30 (£5.50 for 200ml) passed SPF and UVA safety tests. Natalie Hitchins, Which? head of home products and services, said: 'It's really concerning that widely available sunscreens could be putting families at risk by failing to offer the level of sun protection claimed on the packaging. 'While shoppers should avoid buying our 'don't buys', our results prove that there's no need to splash out to keep you and your loved ones safe in the sun as we've found cheap reliable options at Aldi and Lidl.' A spokeswoman for Ultrasun said: 'Ultrasun is fully confident in our testing protocols. As an independent brand delivering very high UVB and UVA protection options for over 30 years, our detailed testing processes, independent and peer reviewed, continue to not only meet but surpass industry standards. 'Our chosen testing protocol is one of the strictest available. Further detail and clarification from Which? on their testing protocols would also be helpful, particularly on how these resulted in two different results from the same sample.' Morrisons told Which? that it was looking closely at the data and working with its supplier to carry out additional independent testing. Recommended reading: What are UVA and UVB rays, and what does SPF mean? UVA and UVB rays both cause different types of damage, and not all sun creams protect against them in the same way. UVA rays penetrate the skin more deeply than UVB to cause long-term damage, including all types of skin cancer, and play a role in the ageing process, such as causing wrinkles, sun spots and leathery skin. UVB rays are mostly responsible for sunburn and skin reddening. They do not penetrate as deeply as UVA rays but they are just as damaging, and can play a large part in the development of skin cancers including melanoma. SPF stands for 'sun protection factor', and indicates the level of protection a sun cream provides against burning rays. SPFs range from 2 to 50+, with 50+ offering the most protection against UVB.
