What makes Medik8 Retinal better than traditional Retinol?
It’s all about Retinaldehyde – faster, gentler and clinically proven to deliver
remarkable visible improvement in texture, brightness, firmness and clarity.
From Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 to 20, there’s a ladder of strengths to suit your
skin's tolerance. We love pairing Medik8 Crystal Retinal with Advanced Night Restore for a dreamy night routine, and waking up to visibly firmer, smoother
skin by morning.
We’re obsessed with the full lineup from Medik8 Vitamin C-Tetra Luxe and Daily Radiance Vitamin C for daytime brilliance to Medik8 Night Cream and Niacinamide Peptides for nighttime magic. Whether you’re cleansing with
Medik8 Surface Radiance Cleanse, toning with Medik8 Press and Glow, or
hydrating with Hydr8 B5, every product is a joy to use. And for gifting? The
Medik8 Gift Sets are a no-brainer. Discover how to repair and protect your skin barrier with Medik8’s
science-backed solutions at Sephora UK - learn causes, signs and the
best products for healthy, resilient skin.
Medik8’s Crystal Retinal is the brand’s bestselling Vitamin A serum, powered by Retinaldehyde – a fast-acting form of Vitamin A that works up to 11 times faster than retinol* and offers the bonus of antibacterial benefits for blemish-prone skin. Available in a ladder of five strengths, the range allows a personalised approach, beginning with Crystal Retinal 3 for those new to the ingredient all the way up to Crystal Retinal 20 for experienced users. *G.
