Medik8 has once again taken the beauty world by storm with its latest innovation, the . This anti-ageing product boasts a multi-peptide complex and ‘mini-proteins’, promising to deliver a reduction in deep-set wrinkles within eight weeks and a visible softening of fine lines in 10 minutes.
The serum has been met with rave reviews, garnering almost exclusively five-star ratings since its recent debut. Customers claimed claiming it “really works” and dubbing it “magic in a bottle”. It retails at Medik8 official site for £79 for a full-size 30ml. OK! wellness editor Laura Mulley put the serum to test and it made her delaying her overdued bi-annual Botox touch-up. She found her face looking “instantly fresher” overall and with repeated use, her skin “felt stronger and healthier”.

As a serum, it also worked well with other skincare products and sat well under makeup, adding: “The fine lines on my forehead appear a little less noticeable”.
Disclaiming that she typically refreshes their Botox every four to six months, specifically targeting the forehead area, she had noticed her forehead lines becoming more noticeable. The Medik8 Liquid Advanced MP Serum could fill in and potentially bridge the gap until her next session.
She added: “My initial experience with the serum was positive; true to Medik8’s reputation, the formula is refined and luxurious. It absorbs rapidly, I often skip moisturiser, going straight from serum to SPF, but with this product, I found myself reaching for a face cream (my current go-to is , £45, which pairs well with it). Having used it for only a few weeks and without any deep-set wrinkles to test it on, I can’t vouch for that specific claim.”

The ’10-minute wrinkle lift miracle’ did not happen to Laura and knowing it’s “not a substitute for Botox”, which is a topical injectible to immobilse muscles, she noticed her skin appeared fresher and more robust.
It is also worth noting that it doesn’t provide the same level of hydration as a hyaluronic acid or glycerin-based serum. But if you’re in the market for a versatile ‘anti-ageing’ serum that seamlessly integrates into your existing skincare routine, this is an excellent choice; it seems universally suitable (a sentiment echoed by over 1,000 customers who’ve awarded it five-star reviews). If you’re seeking lightweight hydration rather than advanced anti-wrinkle action from your serum, , £39, might be more up your alley.
