Beauty buffs hailing Medik8 ‘wonder’ peel’ say ‘wrinkles gone in the morning’
Medik8 has become a trusted brand within the beauty community for its wide range of skincare products that deliver on their promises.
Whether you are looking to introduce retinal or peptides into your routine, the skincare firm has everything that you need. For those looking to incorporate a peeling treatment into their routine, then the Medik8 Sleep Glycolic (30ml) has been hailed as a “must have”.
This Time Release AHA Overnight At-Home Peel has been created by “age defying” experts. In fact, the results are said to be so effective that one user has claimed that their “wrinkles are gone in the morning”.
Priced at £39 for a 30ml bottle, the Sleep Glycolic is an overnight at-home-peel treatment that saves you money from paying professional prices. It uses 10 percent active glycolic acid to minimise the look of fine lines, dark spots and even congestion.
Designed to be used twice a week at night, the firm claims it “delivers fast results overnight”. It works throughout the night to help improve the look of your beauty sleep, with shoppers saying their skin “looked visibly illuminated”.

You also don’t have to worry about the usual redness and irritation that can often come with a professional face peel. Innovative crystal encapsulation technology gradually delivers glycolic acid into the skin throughout the night, meaning your skin is kept “comfortable and balanced”.
Averaging a pretty neat 4.9 rating based on hundreds of reviews, the Medik8 Sleep Glycolic has become beloved by beauty buffs who say that it is a “wonder” product that “scares wrinkles into submission”.
One positive review read: “My skin looks beautiful the next morning after using sleep glycolic. I combine it with Vitamin A cream or Crystal retinal. Wrinkles are gone in the morning.”

A second five-star review read: “I like Sleep Glycolic very much and think that it is an excellent addition to my evening routine twice a week. On the day after I have used it I find my skin is velvety soft and the texture is even .I have sensitive skin but Sleep Glycolic doesn’t irritate it. My wrinkles are quite deep but I am hopeful that in the long run it will reduce at least some of them.”
Someone else wrote: “I seriously cannot do without this product. It has single-handedly (well, ok, with back up from the radiance skin cleanser…) destroyed my rosacea problem, banished skin dullness and started to scare wrinkles into submission. I’m 56 and pals have started to ask if I’ve had ‘work’ (I haven’t). I love Sleep Glycolic.”
Another added: “I love this product! It is a must for my skincare regimen. Every morning after using this, my skin is so smooth, fresh, and new. I use it about 2 times a week. Medik 8 products are the best! The foaming face wash, the toner, vitamin c, peptides, retina A, and the sleep glycolic .. the gold standard for your skin. I’m turning 49 and no one can believe my age. It just glows!”
Beauty deal of the week
COSRX, the brand behind the viral Snail Mucin Serum, has another anti-ageing product shoppers are swearing by.
It is the COSRX 6 Peptide Skin Booster Toner Serum and has thousands of glowing reviews. Priced at just £19.13 for a 150ml bottle, this “powerhouse” serum uses a variety of key ingredients that leaves skin looking “fresh” and “youthful”.
Designed to be used as the first step in your skincare routine, this serum uses a blend of six peptides to improve skin elasticity, fine lines, pores, and radiance. It can be used as a “boost” before your other favourite serums and creams.
The COSRX 6 Peptide serum also boasts other skin-loving ingredients such as niacinamide and hyaluronic acid to target multiple other concerns such as hyperpigmentation and moisture. Shoppers also say their skin “drinks up” the lightweight texture for that “glass skin look”.
Currently averaging a 4.6 rating with over 800 five-star Amazon reviews, the 6 Peptide Skin Booster Toner Serum has been praised as a “holy grail” product that “diminishes” the look of wrinkles and fine lines.
One five-star review read: “Wow. Just wow. Amazing product! I am absolutely hooked. I use 4-5 pumps on my skin before serum. Makes my skin incredibly soft, and I’ve seen wrinkles get diminished by 80-90% since starting to use it. Most dramatic difference on my neck. Super impressed!”
And another gushed: “This product is a holy grail product. Great ingredients! Makes my face look fresh and youthful.”
Nevertheless, if you want to give the COSRX 6 Peptide Skin Booster Toner Serum (150ml) a go, you can bag it for £19.13 on Amazon here.
As it is a peeling treatment, some users have found that it is slightly strong for their skin. One four-star review read: “I’m only using once every 3-5 nights because I find it’s pretty strong for me and it feels like it burns/stings. I’m applying the bakuchiol peptide oil after. I’ve been using for about 1 month.”
Shoppers can purchase the Medik8 Sleep Glycolic Time Release AHA Overnight At-Home Peel (30ml) for £39 here.
Meanwhile, another popular at-home peel treatment that users usually recommend is The Ordinary’s AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution. Priced at £8.90 for a 30ml bottle, this peeling solution has been designed to be left on for just 10 minutes.
