Advanced Vitamin A Night-Time Skincare: Designed for Experienced Users of Crystal Retinal.
Crystal Retinal 10 is Medik8’s strongest retinal formula, created for experienced vitamin A users who have gradually built up their skin’s tolerance.
 
This iconic night serum contains retinal, a next-generation form of vitamin A, which is clinically proven to act up to 11 times faster than retinol. It helps to visibly smooth, brighten and firm the skin, while targeting the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation and uneven texture.
 
Medik8’s patented stability system helps maintain the potency of the retinal until the last drop. Its advanced encapsulation technology is designed to deliver powerful results while helping to minimise irritation.
 
With six progressive strengths available, you can gradually build your routine and continue to support your skin as your needs change.
 
Emma’s Recommendation 
I always believe that stronger does not automatically mean better. Crystal Retinal 10 is not a product I would recommend jumping straight into, but for experienced vitamin A users, it can be a fantastic advanced night treatment.
My approach is always to work with your skin, not overwhelm it. With the right introduction and a consistent routine, retinal can help support smoother, brighter, firmer and healthier-looking skin over time.
 
Emma’s Tip 
Build your tolerance and don’t rush the process. Introduce Crystal Retinal 10 gradually, apply a small amount to dry skin and follow with a nourishing moisturiser.
Avoid combining it with lots of other strong active ingredients unless your routine has been carefully planned. If your skin feels sore, tight or irritated, take a break and focus on supporting your skin barrier.
And remember — daily SPF is essential when using vitamin A. 🤍
