Delivering gentle fine line-reducing benefits, the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6 Serum is an advanced retinaldehyde formula that protects from the noticeable signs of ageing. Powered by 0.06% 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 - 0.1%) to ensure optimal results at every level of your retinaldehyde journey.

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%).

My 50+ skin loves this
Medik8 retinal 6 suits my skin.Use it 3x week as part of routine, get no redness or dryness. Worked slowly from level 1, 3 to 6. Easy to use, skin feels supple, looks even toned. Not Botox so won’t reverse wrinkles but in combination with other products it seems to stop them getting worse.

Amazing
I purchased Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6 as the next step up from Crystal Retinal 3. My skin is looking clearer, smoother and immediately noticed a difference even after the first application. Would highly recommend!

absolutely worth the money. I won’t be with Medik8 retinal products now.
I’m such a fan of Medik8, all their products are brilliant. This is no exception. I used this product after trying the less effective retinol products which often stung my face. I started with the Chrystal Retinal 1 and worked my way up. This is way stronger than any retinols and yet was comfortable to use. I’m now up to the retinal 10 in the evening and my face never stings even with using a glycolic exfoliator in the mornings (also Medik8). I can easily have a reaction even to sensitive products so this brand is a revelation! Lovely to use and only a very small amount for brilliant results. Tube lasts well and absolutely worth the money. I won’t be with Medik8 retinal products now.

Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6
I purchased both the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 & 6. I started with Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 and this caused me no irritation and my skin is already looking clearer. I’ve also noticed my spots disappearing much faster than usual since using. I brought Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6 as the next step up as I’ve had no irritation. I would definitely recommend.
