Description

Does your skin look dull and flat in the morning, and would you like to start with vitamin C without using a pure serum? Medik8 C-Tetra Cream is a luxurious vitamin C face cream that combines moisturisation and antioxidant protection in one step. It is the perfect choice if you are just starting with vitamin C, want a hydrating day cream with anti-ageing benefits, or wish to prevent signs of skin ageing. Suitable for all skin types.

How it works

The formula contains 3% lipid vitamin C (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate), a stable, oil-soluble form that penetrates deeply into the skin and is gradually released. This minimises irritation while allowing the skin to benefit optimally from the antioxidant action. Vitamin C targets signs of skin ageing, helps fade pigmentation spots and stimulates collagen production in fibroblasts, creating a firmer matrix that plumps fine lines. Tocopheryl Acetate (vitamin E) supports antioxidant defence, while Sodium Hyaluronate and Glycerin bind moisture in the skin.

Texture and use in your routine

The texture is rich and nourishing yet absorbs smoothly; the essential oils in the formula give it a fresh citrus-geranium scent. Use it in the morning as the vitamin C step of the CSA philosophy and always follow with sun protection such as Advanced Day Ultimate Protect SPF 50+ or Physical Sunscreen. At night, pair it with a vitamin A such as Crystal Retinal or Night Ritual Vitamin A. If you prefer a lighter serum instead of a cream, C-Tetra or C-Tetra Luxe are the alternatives within the same vitamin C range.

Frequently asked questions

Which step of the CSA routine is this?

It is the vitamin C step for the morning. Cleanse, apply C-Tetra Cream and finish with SPF. Vitamin A comes at night.

Can I combine it with retinal?

Yes. Use the cream in the morning and your Crystal Retinal in the evening, so both vitamins work optimally without interfering.

How long does 50 ml last?

Applying a thin layer daily, the tube lasts approximately two to three months.

Operation

C-Tetra Cream is built around 3% lipid vitamin C (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate), a stable, oil-soluble form that penetrates deeply and is released gradually. This keeps irritation to a minimum while the antioxidant action works at its best. Vitamin C targets signs of skin ageing, helps fade pigmentation and stimulates collagen production in fibroblasts, visibly plumping fine lines. Vitamin E reinforces antioxidant defence, while Sodium Hyaluronate and Glycerin deliver intensive hydration, together refining skin structure and creating a more even complexion.

Application

Apply a thin layer to cleansed skin in the morning and/or evening and massage gently until fully absorbed. Use daily for optimal results. When using the cream during the day, always finish with sun protection, as vitamin C can make the skin more sensitive to UV radiation. In the evening, follow with your vitamin A step.

Result

Skin feels intensively hydrated and nourished straight away. With daily use you will notice more glow, a more even complexion and improved skin texture after a few weeks. Pigmentation spots gradually fade and fine lines appear plumped. Results vary per skin and require consistent use.

Frequently asked questions

What is Medik8 C-Tetra Cream and who is it suitable for?
Medik8 C-Tetra Cream is a luxurious vitamin C face cream formulated with 3% lipid vitamin C, designed for anyone looking for gentle yet effective anti-aging care. It suits all skin types, including sensitive skin, thanks to its gradual-release lipid technology that minimises irritation while delivering visible results.
How do I use Medik8 C-Tetra Cream in my routine?
Apply a thin layer of Medik8 C-Tetra Cream to cleansed skin every morning and/or evening, massaging gently until fully absorbed. For best results, use it daily. If you apply it in the morning, always follow up with SPF, as vitamin C can increase your skin's sensitivity to UV radiation.
What does Medik8 C-Tetra Cream actually do for my skin?
Medik8 C-Tetra Cream helps fade pigmentation spots, improves skin texture, and gives your complexion a more even, radiant glow. Its key ingredient, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, converts to active vitamin C deep in the skin, neutralising free radicals and inhibiting melanin production for visible anti-aging results.
Why is the vitamin C in Medik8 C-Tetra Cream different from regular vitamin C?
Medik8 C-Tetra Cream uses Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate — a stable, oil-soluble form of vitamin C that penetrates the skin's lipid barrier effortlessly. Unlike traditional vitamin C, it's released gradually via a lipid matrix, making it far less irritating while still converting to active L-ascorbic acid in the deeper skin layers.
Can I use Medik8 C-Tetra Cream alongside other skincare products?
Yes — Medik8 C-Tetra Cream works well as part of a broader routine. It contains Sodium Hyaluronate and glycerin for hydration, and vitamin E to boost its antioxidant action, so it can serve as both your vitamin C treatment and your moisturiser. Just make sure to pair it with SPF during the day.
Will Medik8 C-Tetra Cream irritate my sensitive skin?
Medik8 C-Tetra Cream is specifically formulated to be gentle. The lipid matrix releases vitamin C gradually, significantly reducing the risk of irritation that's common with traditional vitamin C formulas. This makes it a reliable choice even for sensitive skin types seeking consistent antioxidant and anti-aging benefits.
