Overview

Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6 is an overnight retinal serum-cream for people who want clearer, firmer-looking skin with less irritation than classic retinol. It suits those already comfortable with vitamin A who are ready for a stronger step in their evening routine. The softly peach-toned formula sinks in easily and leaves skin hydrated and smoother by morning.

Key benefits

  • Uses retinaldehyde for anti-ageing results that can appear faster than standard retinol
  • Helps soften fine lines and even out texture overnight
  • Hydrates and plumps while the active works
  • Lower irritation profile than many traditional retinol formulas
  • Supports a clearer, more radiant-looking complexion
  • Light vanilla and tonka bean scent for a comforting night-time feel

Key ingredients

  • A fast-acting form of vitamin A that targets fine lines, uneven tone and rough texture with less downtime than retinol.

  • Draws and holds moisture in the skin so the complexion stays supple while retinal works overnight.

  • An antioxidant that helps stabilise the retinaldehyde and supports the skin’s defence against free radicals.

  • A humectant that binds water into the skin for lasting comfort and hydration.

How to use

  1. After cleansing in the evening, massage a pea-sized amount over face, neck and décolletage.
  2. Let it absorb fully, then apply your moisturiser.
  3. Introduce slowly: twice a week for two weeks, every other night for the next two weeks, then nightly if tolerated.
  4. Wear broad-spectrum sunscreen every morning during use and for a week after.
