Discover a younger-looking complexion with Crystal Retinal 3.
Featuring retinaldehyde (retinal), a next-generation form of vitamin A which is not to be mistaken for the classic form of vitamin A, retinol. In numerous studies, retinal has been demonstrated to be more effective and 11x faster-working than retinol, without any additional irritation.[1,2,3] The hydrating overnight serum-cream visibly addresses signs of aging; improving the appearance of wrinkles, texture and tone.
Potency and optimum power is ensured through a double-layered stabilization system, which includes a crystal encapsulation that releases vitamin A gradually throughout the night, to pprotect the skin from becoming overwhelmed at any point. Hyaluronic acid and glycerin also feature to moisturize and hydrate skin, minimizing any dryness. The complexion is left visibly smooth and supple. Crystal Retinal is available in a series of progressive strengths. Crystal Retinal 3 (0.03% retinal) is where most users begin. Medik8 recommend a simple, effective skincare strategy of using vitamin C and sunscreen in the morning and vitamin A at night.
This strategy is called: CSA.

The best!
This is the best retinal/retinol product I’ve ever used! My skin looks better than it has in a long time. My forehead lines have been fading drastically! 10/10
Report this reviewThe Best!!
This is the first retinol I’ve tried that hasn’t irritated my skin and I’ve noticed positive changes. I usually use a retinol alternative because I have dry/sensitive skin, but decided to try the lower strength crystal 3 because I heard a lot of great things. I use this twice and week at night and I always use the “hydration sandwich” method when applying so that my skin is always hydrated and doesn’t get too irritated on the nights I use retinol. Because my skin seems to tolerate this product well, I’m think of moving up to the crystal 6 after I finish this tube!
Report this reviewSo far so good
I’ve only used this for a few weeks but have experienced no irritation at all. It goes on very smoothly and has a nice fresh scent
