Medik8s mission is simple - beautiful skin for life - which is why they consistently harness new, youth-boosting breakthroughs to keep your skin stronger for longer with three key technologies: vitamin C, sunscreen and vitamin A. High-end formulations at purse-friendly prices, this attainable range means you dont need to choose between pounds and performance: the CSA method (C in the morning, followed by sunscreen then vitamin A in the evening) makes beautiful skin aber easy simplifying your daily regime while fast-tracking your path to a healthy complexion. Whats more, the brand is committed to making sustainable changes from ethical sourcing to minimal waste so your beauty routine is as clean as your conscience.
With four strengths to suit your skins needs (and its tolerance!), Medik8s Crystal Retinal will super-charge your ritual with stable retinaldehyde to stimulate your cells to manufacture precious collagen which bolsters skins resilience and density. Level 3 stars 0.03% encapsulated retinaldehyde and is great for beginners who're dipping their face in the retinol water
Retinoic acid is the form of retinol your skin can utilise (currently only available via prescription because of its potency) however, cells convert retinol (vitamin A) into retinaldehyde then retinoic acid with remarkable results its just that they take a bit longer. Thus, by skipping a step in the conversion process and harnessing encapsulated retinaldehyde a revolutionary new form of vitamin A Medik8 speed up the line-smoothing, brightening, firming and dark spot-diminishing process with tangible changes in four weeks of use. With a unique crystal structure that is readily metabolised by enzymes when applied, Crystal Retinal ensures stability and maximum absorption while mitigating risk of irritation. With the radiance-boosting, clarifying and retexturising benefits of retinol (without the scaly side-effects), this fortifies skin overnight and delivers a visible difference 11 times faster than retinol. The addition of plumping and moisture-retaining hyaluronic acid and glycerin, alongside antioxidant vitamin E makes this perfect for those who are keen to embark on their retinol journey.
After cleansing in the evening, massage a small amount of Crystal Retinal across the face, neck and daccolletage. Allow to absorb before applying your moisturiser.
Crystal Retinal application should be phased in gradually, and only in the evening. Use twice a week for the first two weeks, every other night for the next two weeks, then every night. Always wear sunscreen the following morning while using this product, and for one week after.

Fabulous product
This sinks in beautifully into the skin and leaves skin plump. Haven’t not used long enough to comment on the long term effect, but skin definitely likes this and noticed a brightening effect after using.Â
Report this reviewGreat product
This is one of my favorite facials! I really liked the Medik8 face cream Crystal Retinal 3. with regular use evens out the tone of the face, reduces wrinkles, unfortunately I did not see the effect on very deep wrinkles, but it may be necessary to apply longer or more concentration of the product. good product, I recommend to try
Report this reviewGreat retinol
I love this serum so much. It's super gentle and I haven't experienced any reactions. I'm yet to see a difference to my fine lines (I know that can take up to six months of consistent use) but it's really helped calm my acne breakouts and has improved my scar healing.Â
Report this reviewA must try!!
Been using this product for about 10 days now every other night and my skin has never looked better. No irritation or dry flakey skin like other retinol type products!! This is a must!!Â
Report this reviewGood
I bought this off the recommendation of Caroline Hurons who raves about this. Its a gentle retinol and hasn’t irritated me at all. Still need to use it more for effective results but like it so far.
Report this reviewGreat
I recently started using to help tackle acne and small bumps on the skin and it really has helped. It’s very easy to use and beginner friendly so I haven’t had any reactions to it at all. My skin can be very sensitive to new products so this was great!
Report this reviewFirst retinol
This is my first retinol and is gentle enough for me to use every other night. I have PIH left from acne, can't say I notice much difference after a month but I think it's a slow and steady game.Â
Report this reviewGreat
This is just such a fantastic product, like all medik8 products it is really gentle on my skin yet gives great results. I have pretty sensitive skin but have had zero irritation when using this as it suggests, building up over 2 weeks.
Report this reviewBest retinol
This is the best retinol I have used. It doesn’t dry out my skin like others and isn’t any oily texture or finish. It soaks right into the skin and is perfect for those with oily skin who don’t like oily retinols such as myself. It layers nicely and doesn’t irritate my skin while also giving my skin a-bit of hydration with it’s cream texture. I always wake up with glowing skin the next morning after use. Will continue to purchaseÂ
Report this reviewBrilliant
This is the best retinol I have used- doesn’t cause any sensitivity or peeling. It is gentle, yet effective. I have just brought Crystal Retinal 6 and I am hoping it is just as good as this one.Â
