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 6 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 6 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.

Transparency lies at the heart of our philosophy which is why we have partnered with tech-platform – Provenance – to cut through the industry ‘noise’ and equip you with key facts that matter. A 'proof point' with a green tick means a third party has verified the accuracy of the statement whereas no green tick means that there isn't independent confirmation (yet!), but that the brand has still supplied substantiating evidence (which you can view yourself).

The best!
Medik 8’s retinal products are the best IMO. I’ve tried others, but always come back to this - gentle, effective, and buildable in terms of strength.

Perfect!
This stuff is magic. I read all of the reviews and wondered if it was really as good as everyone says but I’ve noticed such a difference in my skin since using this. I used a weaker strength retinol at first to get my skin used to it and now moved up to the Medik8 one for something stronger and was able to go straight to the 6 without any reactions! Can’t wait to keep using it

10/10
This is hands down the best skincare product I have ever tried. The difference it makes is genuinely visible. Within a week of using I had comments from Several friends asking what skincare I was using and why was I looking so smooth and radiant

Continues to be great
I’ve now been using this for just over a year. I have hormonal breakouts but not oily skin and this really helps to control that and my skin looks noticeably better after continued use.

Skin looks smoother and brighter in just 3 weeks
I’ve only been using this for 3 weeks and using it 2 or 3 nights a week but my skin already looks smoother and brighter. I’ve had no irritation from this product. It’s amazing. I’ve only given it 4 stars because of the price

Best Retinal
After using other products which gave me bad reactions, I saw Medik8 was raved about online and gave it a try and started with Crystal 3. From the beginning of use, I’ve had no bad reactions such as purging, blemishes or dry skin. When moving up to this strength, I’ve again had no issues, and have seen a dramatic difference. The evenings when I use this, I wake up and my skin feels so bright and smooth. Highly highly recommend this brand and Retinal!

The best retinal
This is the only retinal that I can use without my skin pealing amd flaking. This is gentle enough to work but not burn my skin.

Love love love
My favourite retinal ever. I’ve been working my way up from the weakest strength and after the initial purge I’ve had no breakouts. My skin is super sensitive and I love that they have different strengths

Amazing formula!
I have slightly sensitive skin and have had perioral dermatitis in the past from using too many actives so I try to be careful what I put on my face at the moment. For a while now I have been using n.3 and have loved the results and have recently switched to n.6 with no issues/reactions. Medik8 have made this amazing formula which is super effective but doesn’t irritate my skin at all! I don’t think I’ll ever find something that work better for my skin!
