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 - 0.2%) 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%).

Good start to retinal
I rate medik 8, they are a good brand. This is a great start to a retinal which is non irritating. The stronger you use as you go up, the better they get!

Great retinol
Lovely, non-irritant retinol that applies well. I've only been using for a few weeks but have already ordered the next strength to move up to in the future.

Would only ever use Medik8 Crystal Retinal!
These are the best! I started at the lower end with number 3 and have since moved up to 6 (a bit stronger). Wouldn't use another brand or range for my retinal now.

Retinol magic in a bottle
This is by far the best retinol I’ve tried an I’ve tried over 30 if not more. You start to notice a different in skin after about 3/4 weeks.

great serum
Great serum, quite gentle and non-irritating. I've been using it under my eyes as well, instead of eye creams with retinol, and it worked perfectly. But in general my skin tolerates retinol products quite well, so people with more sensitive skin should be more careful I think it's a great option for summer. For winter, i've decided to use retinal 6

Amazing
My skin has dramatically improved since using this. I phased it in as instructed and now use every night. I couldn’t be without it.
