Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3

Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 is Medik8's entry point for those who are new to vitamin A or have tried mild retinol formulas and the answer to those looking to prevent early signs of skin ageing.

Revealing younger-looking skin with just one tube, this ground-breaking cream serum is formulated with 0.03% Retinaldehyde, a super-charged derivative of vitamin A, which works to promote the skins natural collagen production, rebuild lost collagen and increase cell turnover, promoting a smoother, brighter and healthier complexion.

By requiring only one conversion to retinoic acid, the Crystal Retinal™ works 11 x faster than other forms of retinol*, delivering results comparable to clinical-grade vitamin A.

Delivering gentle and powerful results, this serum is formulated with a globally patented stability system  that ensures maximum retinal potency to the very last drop, delivering gentle and powerful results without irritation. 

Clinically proven to improve the appearance of pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles and breakouts in just four weeks, this serum provides a 20% reduction in the appearance of wrinkles*, a 20% reduction in visible hyperpigmentation*, and an 11% increase in skin firmness*, smoothing the look of stubborn lines in just seven days* to reveal an improved and rejuvenated complexion. 

With the innovative crystal encapsulation system, the Retinaldehyde is slowly time-released, helping to reduce irritation, making this suitable for all skin types, including those who have previously been sensitive to Retinol.

With other key ingredients including Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin E, the skin is hydrated at every level, leading to a plumper and smoother complexion and the skin barrier is strengthened, helping to lock in moisture. With a lightweight, silk-like texture that absorbs quickly into the skin, this powerful serum renews and resurfaces the skin, visibly minimises fine lines and wrinkles, reduces blemishes and pigmentation and delivers a healthier, brighter and more even-toned complexion.

How to use:

Step 1: After cleansing in the evening, apply 2 pumps of Crystal Retinal to the face and neck. Allow to absorb then follow with a moisturiser. We recommend Advanced Night Restore which is specifically designed to be used after vitamin A.

Step 2: For new users of Crystal Retinal, phase application in gradually. Use twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks, then every night. You should always use a sunscreen the next morning after using vitamin A.

Note: Ladder up your visible age-defying results over time with Crystal Retinal's 5 progressive strengths (0.01% - 0.1% retinaldehyde) - only available at Medik8. For those with very sensitive skin, we recommend starting with Crystal Retinal 1 (0.01%). However, most Crystal Retinal and vitamin A beginners start on Crystal Retinal 3 (0.03%). If you're an experienced vitamin A user already, start at Crystal Retinal 6 (0.06%) before working your way up to Crystal Retinal 10 (0.1%) & Crystal Retinal 20 (0.2%).

Always use sunscreen during the day in conjunction with this product.

Not to be used if pregnant or breastfeeding.
