The highest strength in the retinal ladder

Fast Wrinkle Reducing Power | Radiant, Youthful Skin | Progressive Strength Range | Professional-Grade Results | Effective Results Until the Last Drop

Crystal Retinal 20 delivers 0.2% retinaldehyde - a next-generation form of vitamin A that converts to active retinoic acid in a single step, which is why it works considerably faster than standard retinol. Medik8's iconic night serum smooths the look of stubborn wrinkles, brightens dark spots, decongests and firms the skin, without the irritation retinoids are known for.

This is the highest strength on the ladder, intended only for expert users who have completed a full tube of Crystal Retinal 10 with no irritation. It is not a starting point, and there is nothing to gain from skipping the steps below it.

A patented retinal stability system keeps the formula potent until the last drop, which matters with an unstable active. Hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and glycerin keep skin hydrated and comfortable alongside it, offsetting the dryness higher-strength vitamin A can cause.

Barrier support becomes non-negotiable at this level. Pair it with a ceramide-rich moisturiser and do not layer other exfoliating actives on the same night.

Phase it in: twice a week for the first two weeks, every second night for the next two, then nightly. Apply two pumps to a cleansed face and neck in the evening, follow with Advanced Night Restore, and always wear sunscreen the next morning.

KEY INGREDIENTS

Retinaldehyde: Proven to work up to 11 times faster than standard retinol, retinaldehyde (retinal for short) is a revolutionary form of vitamin A that effectively targets the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin texture and loss of firmness - without irritation.

Hyaluronic Acid: With the ability to attract and retain more than 1,000 times its own weight in water, hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the upper layers of the skin; leaving the complexion hydrated and visibly supple.

Vitamin E: A powerful antioxidant that provides additional antioxidant protection against the ageing effects of free radicals. It also helps to boost the power of vitamin C for optimum visible results.

Glycerin: A natural humectant which traps moisture within the skin to leave it hydrated and comfortable.

How To Use

First-time use: If you're new to Crystal Retinal we recommend a patch test at least 24 hours before first use. Phase application in gradually. Use twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks, then every night.

Step 1: After cleansing in the evening, apply 2 pumps of Crystal Retinal to the face and neck. Allow to absorb.

Step 2: Follow with a moisturiser. We recommend Advanced Night Restore which is engineered to be used after vitamin A (retinoids).

Step 3: Always use a sunscreen the next morning after using vitamin A. We recommend Advanced Day Ultimate Protect.

NOTE: We recommend using at least 1 tube of your current Crystal Retinal strength before moving up the ladder to the next strength.
