Making skin care simple, Medik8 takes the fuss out of caring for your complexion. Powered by three key ingredients: vitamin C, vitamin A and non-negotiable SPF, the brand's signature skin care saviours are famed for their potent potions... just like the Crystal Retinal 3 Serum (30ml), an overnight treatment that works to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, as well as blemish-causing bacteria.
With 0.03% encapsulated retinaldehyde, AKA retinal, the Crystal Retinal 3 Serum (30ml) is your new hard-working hero serum, plumping, softening and firming the look of skin.
A cream-like serum that effortlessly melts into skin, this is your new nighttime treat. Providing the same results as retinol but up to 11 times faster, retinal works to boost the appearance of collagen-rich skin, revealing bouncy and dewy results. Encased in a crystal structure that can be broken down by the skin's natural enzymes, retinal is easily absorbed, allowing the slow release of vitamin A while you sleep. Add hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and glycerin into the prodigious blend, and you have a serum that deeply hydrates, for a healthy-looking, supple complexion.

Very good results - go slow if you are sensitive!
It lives up to the claim of showing results faster compared to retinol products however it is just as irritating or more so, so be careful if you are very sensitive and start with their retinal 1 serum and work your way up (speaking from experience!). Worth the hype and money in my opinion, will not switch to other retinol products anymore as they irritate my skin the same but don't give me results as fast as this product line. I saw improvements in fine lines, more balanced skin, skin looks firmer and brighter with more even tone and texture.

What I love the most about Medik8 products – is how they feel on the skin after application. This serum is not an exception. It absorbs immediately, and the skin is felt like silk. If applied as instruction says it does not irritate. Further results can be seen in future of course

Amazing!
I’ve used retinol for the past 3-4 years, but decided to switch to retinal recently. I absolutely love this one! So effective yet gentle - no redness or negative reactions whatsoever! I wake up with soft, glowy skin.
