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 10 has 0.10% encapsulated retinaldehyde and is a step up from 6 when your skin has acclimatised great for those who're keen to ramp the year-reversing impact up a gear.
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're eager to accelerate their age-reversing 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 use 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.

Best retinal in the market
Nothing to add to the tittle, it delivers what it promises! Radiant, smooth and bouncy skin in 18 weeks. At first doesn't seem very potent but can sensitize the skin very quickly of you do not go easy with it.Â

This product has really changed my skin for the better. I started at 3, then 6 and moved to 10. This is the 2nd tube at 10 and I’m happy to stay with it. My skin is smooth, soft and glowing.

Report this reviewWonderful
Great product. As it’s often the case with the brand, the texture and overall application experience are fantastic. It has a high concentration of active ingredients and gives me zero irritation or redness. Awesome.

Report this reviewthe best!
I'm already on my third pack and will continue to buy. I started using cosmetic products with retinol a few years ago, I've tried several brands, and I consider this product - and the retinal - the best when it comes to results and skin reaction. Unlike other products I've tried with retinol, this one doesn't cause me visible flaking of the skin or discomfort from accumulated use, which allows me to use it continuously, without having to take breaks to "recover" the skin. The texture is pleasant and the product absorbs quickly. It's expensive, but it pays off.
Report this reviewI loved it
The product was great! Saw improvements in my skin texture and pours in 3 weeks!Â
Report this reviewWONDERFUL!!!
It never irritates my skin and smoothes and refines it visible. Superior to every other product I have ever tried.
Report this reviewHoly Grail
This serum is just wow. A holy grail for me. Yes, it's so expensive, but for me as an experienced retinol user at the moment so effective. No irritations, no dry places, the skin looks smoother, although wrinkles will not disappear...
