Medik8 Crystal Retinal 1 30ml

Reveal visibly firmer, brighter-looking skin with just 1 tube of Crystal Retinal.

Medik8's bestselling vitamin A night serum is formulated with next-generation retinaldehyde (retinal) which is clinically proven to act 11x faster than retinol* for a visibly brighter, smoother and firmer-looking complexion.

Unlike other retinal serums available, Crystal Retinal features Medik8's unique patented stability system to ensure maximum retinal potency, while their industry-leading encapsulation technology delivers powerful yet gentle results with minimal irritation, even on sensitive skin types.

Loved and recommended by dermatologists and professionals all over the world, Crystal Retinal features a unique ladder of 5 progressive strengths (0.01%-0.2% retinal) so that you can continue to experience increased visible youth-renewing results. If you're a vitamin A beginner, Medik8 recommends that most people start on Crystal Retinal 3 (0.03%), or Crystal Retinal 1 if you have very sensitive skin (0.01%). If you're an experienced vitamin A user, start with Crystal Retinal 6 (0.06%) and gradually work your way up to Crystal Retinal 20 (0.2%). To use Crystal Retinal 20, you must have comfortably finished at least 2 tubes of Crystal Retinal 10 due to it containing a high percentage of retinal.

Working to reduce the appearance of stubborn fine lines and wrinkles and dark spots, Crystal Retinal is the ultimate age-defying serum for a healthier, more youthful-looking complexion.

Hyaluronic Acid
An incredibly hydrating ingredient, hyaluronic acid attracts and retains more than 1,000 times its own weight in water and draws moisture in the upper layers of the skin; leaving it looking visibly supple and deeply hydrated.

Vitamin E
Rich in antioxidants, vitamin E helps to protect the skin against ageing free radicals, while helping to stabilise retinal for maximum results.

Glycerin
A natural humectant that locks moisture into the skin; leaving it feeling comfortable and hydrated.
