Delivering gentle fine line-reducing benefits, the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 Serum is an advanced retinaldehyde formula that protects from the noticeable signs of ageing. Powered by 0.03% stabilised retinal, the treatment is suitable for beginners and those with sensitive skin thanks to a blend of nourishing actives and time-release encapsulation technology.
The fast-acting form of vitamin A is known for its skin-smoothing effect and potent renewing properties. Paired with hyaluronic acid, glycerin and vitamin E, the serum diminishes the look of uneven texture, dullness and discolouration to promote the illusion of enhanced elasticity and bounce. Dermatologist recommended, the innovative Crystal Retinal collection features a unique ladder of five progressive strengths (0.01 - 0.1%) to ensure optimal results at every level of your retinaldehyde journey.
- 97% felt their skin had a more youthful appearance*
- 20% reduction in the appearance of wrinkles*
- 20% reduction in visible pigmentation*
- 11% increase in skin firmness*
- 100% felt Crystal Retinal was gentle on their skin*
*Proven via independent clinical study on one tube of Crystal Retinal 6. Tested on 33 participants over 12 weeks.
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.
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). 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%).

Great first time retinal serum
This is my first time using a Medik8 retinal serum. Within a couple of weeks I could see a difference, my skin looked much clearer and had less redness.

Okay but
I use alot of Medik8 products so was excited for the new Retinals. Unfortunately i find this very drying so can only use it sparingly. The texture is nice but im not sure it suits my skin which surprises me as my skin is pretty tough and suits everything

The BEST retinol
By far the best retinol brand that I’ve used. This is good to start off on and then work your way up through the range. My skin has drastically improved since using this.

Beware of acne purging
Skin has purged terribly after having spent months getting rid of hormonal acne on birth control. Going into the third week to see if it calms down or I should stop using it. Feels like my skin is the worst its been in a long time but this might just be the initial purge !

So Far So Good
I started using this after I found my Beauty Pie retinol was no longer cutting it. I struggle from some mild hormonal acne on my chin, which only bothers me because it always leaves hyperpigmentation. There were some teething issues at first (my skin got a little flaky and had a couple extra pimples), I don't think it helped that I started using this during a cold snap. However, after about 6 weeks of use I'm finding that the hormonal acne is improving, as is the hyperpigmentation and my skin is glowing. Hoping it'll stay this way.

First retinol
Bought this as my first introduction to retinol. I started off by using it twice a week for three weeks, and then gradually building it up to every other day (I’m 23 and using it mainly for my keratosis pilaris and as prevention)
