Delivering gentle fine line-reducing benefits, the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 Serum is an advanced retinaldehyde formula that protects from the noticeable signs of ageing. Powered by 0.03% stabilised retinal, the treatment is suitable for beginners and those with sensitive skin thanks to a blend of nourishing actives and time-release encapsulation technology.
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 - 0.1%) 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%).

Skin saver!
At first I didn't see a difference but after a few weeks I saw a noticeable difference in my skin. It has cleared up lots of my skim issues with acne and large pores and it lasts a long time!

Cured severe acne
I have tried everything for my 14yo daughters severe acne and couldn’t believe this cleared her skin almost overnight. Still some scarring but nothing new appearing. I’m amazed.

Worth the price
I don't really tend to leave reviews but this product has been so good to my skin I just had to. I had used 2 other retinol products for about 6 months and only noticed a tiny bit of difference in that duration. I wasn't expecting much with, however I noticed an instant difference to my skin texture after 1 use (something that never happens to me). My skin feels smoother each time and seems to take in hydration better. It has only been a few weeks so I can't say anything for certain about fine lines but I do think this will help with continued use. I did get a tiny bit of purging but not half as much as I had with the other products. I hesitated when spending so much money on 1 product but I definitely don't regret it!

Great retinal for begginers
I have recently started my retinol journey and wanted something affective but gentle and I really enjoy this! And the smell is cinnamon like which is super lush and not very strong which doesn’t bother me. Great retinal😊

Medik8 crystal retinal 3
Really enjoying this product so far. Feels light on the skin with no greasiness and soaks in quickly. I’ve had zero irritation using it every night, even around the eye area. 2 pumps is enough to cover face and neck so although quite expensive feel the tube will last a while. Early days so haven’t noticed results yet but so far so good!
