Features

NB:

Crystal Retinal 20 is a professional strength for experts and should only be used by people who have comfortably used at least 2 tubes of Crystal Retinal 10, as it contains a very high strength of retinal (0.2%).

Discover the rejuvenating power of Medik8 Crystal Retinal, a breakthrough facial serum specially formulated to transform vitamin A skincare.

This unique night serum offers an effective solution for achieving youthful skin.

Available in a variety of building strengths, Medik8 Crystal Retinal guides you on a journey to Beautiful Skin For Life, working step by step towards beautiful, radiant skin.

KEY BENEFITS

Retinaldehyde, the active serum in Crystal Retinal, is a new generation of vitamin A that has been proven to deliver results up to 11x faster than retinol. Yes, this is retinAL, faster acting than retinOL, the classic form of vitamin A. Please note: as a precaution, it is not recommended to use retinal during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Our Bakuchiol Peptides are the perfect alternative to vitamin A.

RESULTS

Crystal Retinal, the revolutionary facial serum, is uniquely stabilized to ensure optimum potency. Clinical studies have shown that this serum delivers incredible anti-aging results with just one tube. Expect visibly brighter, firmer, smoother-looking skin when using Crystal Retinal.

Professional treatments

The more stable the molecule, the more effective it can be on the skin.

Crystal Retinal offers a level of retinal stability only found at Medik8: our innovative stability system features our renowned crystal encapsulation and a patent-pending formula complex.

The dual-layer stability system comes together to protect the retinal molecule for unparalleled strength and long-lasting effectiveness.

From the Experts

“After years of research and experimentation, we cracked the retinal code in 2018 with a unique stabilization discovery. Our enhanced stability system incorporates two formulation techniques.

First, we protected the powerful yet fragile molecule with a crystal encapsulation that works to both coat the retina and slowly release it onto our skin overnight to minimize potential irritation.

We then enhanced this with a patent-pending stabilising formula complex, unique to Medik8, to ensure the retinal is stabilised throughout its lifecycle – from raw material all the way to our skin.

This means your Crystal Retinal stays powerful from the first application to the very last.”
