A hydration essential

"Hydr8 B5 is one of those products I always like having in my routine. It gives my skin a lovely boost of hydration without feeling heavy or sticky. My skin feels softer, smoother and more comfortable after using it. I have dry skin, so I especially appreciate how well it helps maintain hydration throughout the day. The travel size is also perfect for taking with me."

Hydr8 B5 - light and kind to my skin

"I’ve tried quite a few hydrating serums, but Hydr8 B5 is one of the best I’ve used. It feels light and hydrating on my skin and, unlike others I’ve tried, it isn’t sticky or tacky. It absorbs beautifully and leaves my skin feeling soft, smooth and well hydrated. It sits really well under my other skincare products too. Definitely a keeper."

Another great product!

"This is an excellent product bc I feel the serum is thicker than most. I don’t use as much bc I feel it glides across skin very well. Definitely will be on my list to purchase again."

Hydr8 B5

"It’s a fantastic product, however, after a few uses the glass part of the dispenser fell off and smashed on the floor. I was still able to use it by putting some on my fingertip but I thought you should know"

Helped my son with his acne

"Worked well for my 18 yr old son! He's had bad acne for 2 years and he's tried every over the counter topical products until this is recommended by his derma."

Super!!

"Top product! Op mijn 27 kreeg ik plots last van acné. Echt heel veel gezichtverzorgingsproducten geprobeerd. Uiteindelijk op advies van mijn schoonheidsspecialiste met Medik8 begonnen. Na 2 weken was alles weg! Wat een top merk. Ik ben begonnen met Medik8 Balance Moisturiser, SOS acne, B5 serum en de nachtcreme. Eindelijk producten die niet vet aanvoelen en werken. Ik gebruik niets anders meer. Tussendoor goedkopere producten geprobeerd maar mijn huid werd weer slecht. Ondertussen gebruik ik alleen nog de Balance Moisturiser overdag en in de nacht het B5 serum icm de nachtcreme intelligent retinol. Ik stap niet meer over."

I’ve been testing the Medik8

"I’ve been testing the Medik8 Hydr8 B5, and it is a stellar, fuss-free serum for daily hydration. The oil-free texture is exceptionally practical — it is a crystal-clear, lightweight fluid that absorbs in seconds, instantly plumping the skin without leaving any sticky residue. The combination of multi-weight hyaluronic acid and Vitamin B5 works beautifully to calm irritation and lock in essential moisture, making it the perfect base to layer under any heavy cream or oil."

My skin is so hydrated!

Q&A

How do you combine this product with vitamin c and liquid peptide advance?
Hi Geraldine. Apply Hydr8 B5 first to boost hydration, then your Vitamin C, followed by Liquid Peptides Advanced MP, and finish with your moisturiser and SPF in the morning.
Do I use this 1st or the peptide 1st ? Thanks x
Hi Sara, it does depend which Peptides product you are referring to. Generally, we recommend layering in the order of water-oil-emulsion, which means Hydr8 B5 would be first.
Can this be used around the eye area also?
Hi Stephen, thank you for your question! The Hydr8 B5 serum is gentle enough to use around the eye area; however, we recommend avoiding the eyelids, as this may cause irritation. Thanks, Medik8 Team
Can we use to do micro needling with this? Is it safe to use with the derma pen to glide on skin ? I
Hello Albina, thanks for your question! Yes, Hydr8 B5 is generally safe to use with microneedling or a dermapen. This hydrating serum, with hyaluronic acid and vitamin B5, helps soothe and hydrate the skin after microneedling, supporting a quicker recovery. However, we always recommend checking with the Derma Pen manufacturer to be sure. Thanks, Medik8 Team
Can this serum be used with a microneedling pen?
Hello Julia, Applying Hydr8 B5 after Microneedling is great because it contains hyaluronic acid, which helps restore moisture without irritating the skin Hydr8 also helps to soothe and hydrate the skin post-microneedling, promoting faster recovery and ensuring your skin stays plump and hydrated. Thanks, Medik8 Team
