Expert Tip for Crystal Retinal

"Crystal Retinal is key to transforming your night time skincare routine. This next-generation vitamin A works while you sleep to visibly smooth fine lines, refine skin texture, and brighten dullness, without the usual irritation. For best results, apply after cleansing and follow with a nourishing moisturiser to lock in hydration. Start low, go slow, and let your skin adapt as you work up the strengths, revealing a visibly clearer, firmer, more radiant complexion over time."

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Medik8 Crystal Retinal?

Medik8 Crystal Retinal is a next-generation vitamin A serum that helps reduce fine lines, even out skin tone, and boost radiance, all with minimal irritation.

What strength of Crystal Retinal should I start with?

If you're new to retinoids, start with Crystal Retinal 1 or 3 to allow your skin to build tolerance. You can gradually work up to higher strengths like Crystal Retinal 6, 10 or 20 depending on your skin's needs and experience level.

Is Medik8 Crystal Retinal suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, Crystal Retinal is known for being gentle on the skin while still delivering visible results. Start with a lower strength and use 2–3 times a week, building up as your skin adjusts.

How do I use Medik8 Crystal Retinal in my routine?

Apply it in the evening after cleansing, before your moisturiser. For best results, use it as part of a full anti-ageing skincare routine, ideally alongside Medik8’s cleansers, hydrating serums, and SPF in the morning.

Can I use Crystal Retinal with other actives like vitamin C or niacinamide?

Yes! Use vitamin C in the morning and Crystal Retinal at night for a well-rounded routine. Niacinamide pairs well with it and can help support skin barrier function.

What’s the difference between Crystal Retinal and traditional retinol?

Crystal Retinal uses retinaldehyde, which is one step closer to active retinoic acid than retinol. It delivers results up to 11x faster than traditional retinol, with less irritation.

Is Retinal good for acne-prone skin?

Absolutely. It not only supports anti-ageing goals, but also helps reduce breakouts, unclog pores, and minimise post-acne marks over time.
