Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3

A medium strength retinal for those who have used retinol before, or a starting point for those without sensitive skin.

Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone and refine skin texture with this powerful facial treatment. Thanks to its technologically advanced formula, Crystal Retinal 3 resurfaces skin, helping to boost collagen to help reveal a radiant, youthful complexion. Skin is left soft and smooth, fine lines and wrinkles are visibly reduced, and overall skin tone is improved.

What makes Crystal Retinal different

From the experts in vitamin A, Medik8 developed retinal, which acts faster than classic forms of retinol. Retinal is the closest vitamin A molecule to retinoic acid. Unlike retinol, which must first convert to retinaldehyde and then to retinoic acid within the skin, Crystal Retinal requires just one conversion. The Crystal Encapsulation System slowly releases the retinaldehyde into the skin, reducing possible irritation.
