The more stable the molecule, the more effective it can be on the skin. Crystal Retinal offers a level of retinal stability that is only found at Medik8: our innovative stability system features our renowned crystal encapsulation and a patent-pending formula complex. The dual-layered stability system comes together to protect the retinal molecule for unmatched potency and long-lasting effectiveness.
Top tip! Crystal Retinal is also the perfect vitamin A for those wanting to target the appearance of blemishes and congestion due to retinal’s unique antibacterial action on the skin.
How to Apply
Use in the evening. First cleanse, then apply 2 pumps of Crystal Retinal over face and neck. Allow to absorb then follow with a moisturiser. We recommend Advanced Night Restore, designed to be used after vitamin A.
Phase-In
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 in the morning while using vitamin A.
