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.
- 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%).

Doesn’t dry out skin
I use this a few times a week and I find that my skin although only 26, still looks very youthful. It doesn’t irritate. I do find if I use too often (daily) I get a little bit of redness round my nose.

Good product
Used 3 for a couple of months then upgraded to 6. I think this works well on my skin. I use it with medik8’s overnight moisturiser when it has all soaked in.

Pricy but works well
All medic8 products are nice but this one really makes a visible difference. It is more on the pricey side, but then again, one package lasted me for 14 months.

Great for preventing
I have been using medik8 retinal for about 3 years now (I'm 29) and no wrinkles or fine lines appeared yet. I do suffer from hormonal acne and the retinal makes no difference so I'm not sure if it's the best if you wanna use it to help with blemishes but overall it's a grear product.

Lovely serum.
I built myself up from using retinal 3 and moved onto retinal 6. It has a dark beige colour and absorbs well into my skin. I haven’t experienced any irritation and I like to think that it is preventing any further fine lines or wrinkles.

Like magic
This is like magic I cannot believe the difference in the lines on my smokers lines I have very sensitive skin but I am able to use this every night but do make sure you use the medik8 oil and moisturiser as it can leave your skin very dry. I always top up with extra moisturiser before I get in bed x
