Unique Technologies-CSA Philosophy

CSA Philosophy (Vitamin C + Sunscreen by Day, Vitamin A by Night)

In 2009, Medik8 invented the CSA Philosophy. Incredibly simple and grounded in science – it just works. This CSA method is becoming more and more mainstream by the day. Just use vitamin C plus sunscreen by day, vitamin A by night.

Vitamin C

Well formulated, stabilized vitamin C provides all-important antioxidant protection as well as stimulating collagen production and blocking the development of pigment for smoother and brighter skin. Apply vitamin C in the morning for an all-day urban shield against everyday environmental factors which can cause skin aging.

Sunscreen

It is estimated that 80% of skin aging is caused by the sun. Sadly, skin damage caused by the sun doesn’t only happen when it’s sunny. If it is light out, it means the sun’s rays can still reach you. Even on a cloudy day, you will still get approximately 50% of UV reaching your skin. Wearing high-strength sun protection every day is fundamental for a youthful complexion. Medik8 has a range of beautifully light but powerful sunscreens that protect and nourish the skin. Besides, high-tech Medik8 sunscreens do not feel sticky and greasy like those used at the beach. More likely, you’ll probably not even realise your sumptuous day cream contains sunscreen.

Vitamin A

As the Experts in Vitamin A (aka retinol), Medik8 has developed a wide range of night creams and serums to rejuvenate skin while you sleep. Vitamin A is quite simply the most important ingredient in anti-aging skincare. It has a wealth of skin benefits including speeding up cellular renewal and reducing sebum production. It is crucial that Vitamin A is 2tabilized and has some
form of controlled release to ensure maximum potency with minimal irritation. Anti-aging skincare doesn’t need to be complicated – in fact, it shouldn’t be. Following our simple CSA philosophy will help improve the tone and texture of your skin; leaving it healthy and youthful-looking.
