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. Enter: the Crystal Retinal 10 Serum (30ml), supercharging your routine with stable retinal for bouncy and plump skin.
Speed up the line-smoothing, brightening, firming and dark spot-diminishing process with the Crystal Retinal 10 Serum (30ml).
With a unique crystal structure, this superior serum ensures stability and maximum absorption while mitigating the look of redness. With the radiance-boosting, clarifying and retexturising benefits of retinol (without the sometimes scaly side-effects), this strengthens the appearance of skin overnight, delivering a visible difference 11 times faster than retinol. The addition of plumping and moisture-retaining hyaluronic acid and glycerin, alongside antioxidant vitamin E, makes this serum a true bathroom shelf staple.

Fantastic product
I love all Medik8 products but this is one of my favourites. Keeps my skin looking soft, smooth and fresh.

Gentle and effective
I started with the retinal 6 as my skin is accustomed to retinol & it was really good. I felt confident moving up a step because the formulations are extremely well made & gentle. My skin is glowing & some fine lines have definitely improved. No downsides to this product.

It’s Amazing
Resurfaces, helps with breakouts and pigmentation. Not too irritating but I’ve built up with the other Retinals in the range.

Best Retinal
I've only been using the Crystal 10 for a couple of weeks, but can already feel and see the difference. Skin feels smoother (not that it was bad before!) and forehead lines are reducing. The first night I was disappointed with the pump, as it didn't seem to be working. However, I read a review on the Medik8 website suggesting to apply a bit of pressure to the tube then pump. It worked! The advice is to apply a moisturiser once the retinol has absorbed - something I hadn't done with my previous Retriderm max 1%, but it works and skin looks great in the morning. Can also recommend the Medik8 Super C30, but as with everything work your way up to the higher strength.

Bad First Impression
I’ve had my eye on the product for a long time. Previously been using Paula’s Choice 1% Retinol and Osmosis MD Retinal Serum and was finally ready to try this and bite the bullet on the duties charges (UK to Canada) - but so far I’m not impressed. The product pump is so faulty and a struggle to even get anything out ( might have to open it up). It’s also heavily fragranced which I was not expecting and goes on almost dry? Doesn’t feel hydrating at all. Really hope this gets better over time given the price I paid as I obviously can’t return it.

Great Retinol
Great retinol, does what it is supposed to with no irritation or peeling whatsoever. I have really quite reactive skin and have to be careful about what I use. Worked my way up from 3 to 10 and wouldn't use anything else now

Perfect OTC retinoid
This product is amazing, after stopping use of tret I looked for a retinol type product for maintenance, and after researching I went after retinaldehyde, then found this product, I’ve been using it every night for a month now, and while I don’t think I’ll get improved results over the prescription tretinoin, unlike my last time with tret 2 years ago, my skin isn’t going back to its previous state, which I do appreciate. But I do notice more glow and less dryness, the product is so fast absorbing that I do sometimes feel like I need to use more than I should, since I do use only a pea-sized amount, sometimes I need two full pumps. It’s expensive, really expensive, if you don’t need to check your bank account before buying it go for it if you do, please don’t, go for Avene retinal, the same percentage, not as elegant as this but it will get the job done.
