Medik8 Crystal Retinal 1

Medik8 Crystal Retinal 1 is a groundbreaking overnight serum cream, formulated to contain a specialist crystal-encapsulated form of 0.01% Retinaldehyde. Ready for the step up from standard Retinol? Then this is a powerful derivative of vitamin A with next-generation anti-ageing results, which is quicker and far easier for the skin to be able to convert into Retinoic Acid, working up to 11x times faster than standard Retinol.

Working to effectively promote the skins natural collagen production, soothing uneven texture and containing natural antibacterial properties to help clear up any blemishes to the skin, promoting a smoother an healthier complexion.

Other key ingredients added include Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin E, that allow for the skin to be hydrated and the skin barrier is strengthened, helping to lock in moisture. Specialist time releasing technology helps to reduce irritation, making this suitable for all skin types, including those who have previously been sensitive to Retinol. In as little as four weeks, users can see a vast improvement in the appearance of pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles and breakouts and have an overall improved youthful complexion.

Perfect as an entry level for those who have really sensitive skin or are looking to incorporate a low strength but highly effective vitamin A serum in their routine.

How to use:

After cleansing in the evening, massage a small amount into the face and neck, follow with your usual moisturiser. Begin introducing to the skin gradually, use twice a week for the first two weeks and then gradually increase the frequency of the application. Always use a sunscreen protection during the day in conjuncture with this product for best results.

The Crystal Retinal range is ideal for those wanting to step up from standard Retinol range but who aren’t quite ready for the r-Retinoate range.

For best results always remember to apply a sunscreen during the day when using a Retinol-based product at night.

To build up your skin tolerance, retinol should be gradually phased in. For new users apply twice a week for around two weeks before gradually increasing the frequency of application until it is applied nightly. Retinol can make the skin somewhat sensitive to sunlight, we recommend applying sunscreen to the skin to prevent sun-induced inflammation and damage to your skin if using Retinol. Limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards.

Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Please consult with your doctor if you have problems with use.

Please note: The Crystal Retinal 1 is the first step in the Crystal Retinal range.
