Reviews

Skins looks so much brighter.

"I adore this product. I use 2 to 3 times a week. After cleaning my face I smear a small amount all over my face and neck avoiding the eye are as it drys a bit like a mask but not as tight but if you put to close to eyes you can feel it pulling. Face can feel a tiny bit tacky but it’s very comfortable to sleep in and when you wake up you need to wash it off as it can go s bit white and look like dry skin peeling but once you wash it off it’s like have a whole new layer of fresh skin. It’s soft and has reduce my brown pigmentation tremendously. Tube isn’t big but a little goes a long way! Highly recommend this product. Couldn’t be without it now."

A great weekly reset for my skin

"I use Sleep Glycolic once a week, usually on a Sunday night, as a way of giving my skin a fresh start for the week ahead. As I already use Press & Glow during the week, I find that once a week is enough for me. It works really well, leaves my skin feeling smoother and refreshed, and I’ve had no issues with irritation. I follow it with Advanced Night Restore, which leaves my skin feeling lovely and hydrated. It’s become a regular part of my Sunday night routine."

The Flawless Look

"The Sleep Glycolic serum literally feels great on the skin, once you get over the slight sting from the glycolic acid. It sinks into your skin and after you wash it off, gives your complexion a brighter and smoother finish. Will be purchasing again!"

LOVE IT!!

"I am so happy with this sleep glycolic, I was nervous that I would be sensitive to it so I did the patch test and it went well, and oh my!!! I love it, I enjoy the feel of it the texture is great, it felt nice on my skin and the next morning I could definitely see a difference, my skin looked great, bright and happy. I have only used it one and I am so excited to see how it goes after I use it weekly for a while."

Sleep Glycolic

"Absolutely love Sleep Glycolic! It has made such a noticeable difference in my skin. I wake up with a smoother, brighter, and more refreshed complexion, and my skin texture looks more even after each use. It feels like a professional overnight treatment without being complicated to use. A little goes a long way, and I’m genuinely impressed with the results. Definitely one of my favorite skincare products and something I would happily repurchase. Highly recommend!"

— Alona F. (5/5)

Healthy aging

"Love that this is gentle enough to be used with other actives like crystal retinal at night. Won't yield dramatic results, but great for long term healthy aging."

— Heather S. (5/5)

I really enjoy using Sleep

"I really enjoy using Sleep Glycolic. It leaves my skin noticeably smoother and more refined by the next morning, without the excessive irritation or dryness I’ve experienced with some other exfoliating products. I especially love the fresh, polished look it gives my skin. I use it occasionally as part of my evening routine, alternating it with retinal, and it has been very easy to incorporate. A great product when my skin needs an extra boost of smoothness and glow."

— Nina H. (5/5)

Staple must have!

"Excellent product, love the way my face feels and looks and washing with it. Skin feels radiant, without drying it out."

— Carina P. (5/5)

Favorite AHA Product

"Love love love Sleep Glycolic! A little goes a long way, and my skin looks smooth and even in the morning. I've tried many different forms of Glycolic acid, and this is the real deal. AHAs can be so difficult to incorporate into a routine when you're using other actives like retinoids and peptides. My favorite part about this one is that it's stable enough to use all three in the same PM routine! I can even use it with tretinoin without any irritation or drying. Sleep Glycolic has really helped me trim down and simplify my routine."

— Emily P. (5/5)

Tiny but mighty

"This treatment is everything I expecting. First the tube is deceptively small but you only need a tiny amount as a base. Next, the product is thin, great for layering. I am used to think and creamy “masks” or “treatments” but you can feel this tingling immediately. Last, I use this in my evening routine with my Retinal and wake up glowing."

Q&A

Hi there, is Sleep Glycolic also safe to use on sensitive skin?
Hi Stefanie, thanks so much for your question. Sleep Glycolic can definitely be used on sensitive skin. Of course, ensuring a patch test is performed first. This is a weekly exfoliant also, to be used 1-2 times a week in the evenings, and not layered with other active acids.
Can I use Sleep Glycolic, Liquid Peptides Advanced MP and Crystal Retinal (I'm using 24) on the same routine? If yes, in what order and how long do I need to wait between each step?
Hi Lily, using Sleep Glycolic, Liquid Peptides Advanced MP and Crystal Retinal together is absolutely fine. Provided you have completed the phasing in period for Crystal Retinal and you know your skin is comfortable with it, you can use Sleep Glycolic 2-3 evenings per week, applying it right after cleansing, followed by your other products in their usual order.
Hi, can I use this on the same night as a retinoid?
Hi Brandon, you certainly can. We would just recommend ensuring that your retinoid is phased into your routine before introducing Sleep Glycolic. Sleep Glycolic would be applied after cleansing and before your other products.
Can I use sleep glycolic after an LED mask?
Hi Soraya, our Sleep Glycolic has not been specifically tested with LED masks, but we would advise speaking with the manufacturer of the mask to find out what products would be compatible.
Is your product good for black skin?
Hi Roxy, thank you for your question! Our products are designed to suit all skin tones and focus on efficacy and safety for diverse skin types. Medik8 uses gentle, non-irritating ingredients, making them suitable for sensitive skin. We recommend performing a patch test to ensure compatibility with your specific needs.
