Delivering gentle fine line-reducing benefits, the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 10 Serum is an advanced retinaldehyde formula that protects from the noticeable signs of ageing. Powered by 0.1% 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%).
- 0.1% Retinaldehyde: A vitamin A-derivative that visibly firms the skin
- Hyaluronic Acid: A humectant that supports long-lasting hydration

No irritation!
This Retinal is so lovely to use. I've worked my way up to the 10. I use this ever other night so as not to over do it and give my skin a break. But it's so lovely to use that I never have any problems with sensitivity or dry patches after using it. I do make use to use a thick moisturiser on top though. It has really helped even out my skin tone and reduce spots.

Works for me
Have been using Medik 8 for the past year or so on and off and have been using the strength 6 retinol so have advanced to this strength. Havnt noticed a huge change since upping the strength but haven’t been using it that long or I may have just gotten use to the results. Overall I love medik 8s product so would recommend

Excellent. Love it
Have used retinol serum from another brand for some time, so jumped to Medik8 Crystal Retinal 10. Love it. Easy to apply and my skin feel smooth in the morning. Hope an upgraded version 20 will be available from Look Fantastic very soon.

Holy grail
This is a must have!! By far the best retinol I have ever used and I will be buying this again then slowly move onto the stronger strengths. Expensive but if you can get it on discount I’d definitely give it a go!

Smoother skin quickly
This actually works! I have oily skin and wanted to smooth out my skin and even out my skin tone and I saw a noticeable difference. My only drawback is that my lips started to get darker and when I stopped using it the colour returned to normal again. I don’t know if it’s just me. Works great as a base underneath makeup making it smooth, matte and flawless. Order delivered on time.

Love this retinol serum
It's really effective as an anti-aging product. I'm currently finishing my 3rd tube (started with no. 3, then 6, now 10). My skin has improved: pores are less visible, skin looks smoother and healthier. It's pricey, but it's worth to invest in it plus a good but basic moisturizer rather than a ton of expensive creams that don't really work.

Retinol
This is the second tube I have bought & I would definitely recommend it. The cream leaves your skin nice & smooth & even, although I would like Look Fantastic to also stock the stronger strengths as I think I now need to upgrade to the Crystal Retinol 20.
