Delivering gentle fine line-reducing benefits, the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 10 Serum is an advanced retinaldehyde formula that protects from the noticeable signs of ageing. Powered by 0.1% stabilised retinal that's released via encapsulation technology, the treatment is best suited to experienced users of the active.
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%).

Best vitamin A product with visible results
Medik8 is also one of my fav brands. And this exact one product is unique! Active and bioavailable for skin vit A form, giving no any irritative reaction. Better start with low percent, like 3 or 6 for right skin adaptation to vit A. Using this for 3 years already during winter season.

Love love love this!
I’m a huge fan of Medik8 products because they work! I’ve been using these products since March 2023, working my way up gradually through the strengths. I have definitely noticed an improvement in my skin as have friends and family members! I would highly recommend!

Love! Love! Love!
I was a bit hesitant about this due to Medik8's own recommendation on who should use thar CR strength. But I had already used CR6 and my skin wasn't irritated. So I took the plunge and I'm so glad I did. It has the same feel as CR6 on my skin, but my skin the morning after application looks and feels so good. Rather pricey so I'll probably need to look out for offers, but will definitely repurchase 😊

Gentle but effective
A much gentler alternative to retinol. This helps with rosacea and texture without aggravating my sensitive skin.
