Description
The Medik8 Crystal Retinal 20 30ml is an exceptionally potent vitamin A serum, developed for experienced users seeking professional-strength retinol with maximum skin-rejuvenating performance. This advanced serum contains retinaldehyde , a breakthrough form of vitamin A clinically proven to work up to 11 times faster than retinol . Crystal Retinal 20 intensively targets wrinkles, sagging skin, pigmentation, and texture refinement, while remaining surprisingly skin-friendly thanks to its advanced encapsulation.
The serum helps visibly rejuvenate the skin by accelerating cell renewal, stimulating collagen production, and reducing skin tone imperfections. Skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more radiant, with a noticeable improvement in elasticity. Thanks to a patented stability system, the retinaldehyde's effectiveness remains consistent from the first to the last drop, distinguishing Crystal Retinal 20 from traditional vitamin A products.
Crystal Retinal 20 is designed exclusively for users who have already used Crystal Retinal 10 without any problems. The extra-high strength retinol makes it more professional, more intensive, and faster—ideal for those who want to elevate their anti-aging routine to clinical level. The formula is enriched with hydrating and soothing ingredients to keep skin supple and less sensitive during the menopause.
The serum works best in the evening routine because vitamin A supports the nighttime recovery process. With consistent use, the skin visibly changes: fine lines become softer, wrinkles are reduced, pigment spots are lightened, and skin texture is refined. The complexion gains a clear, even appearance with the youthful glow so characteristic of retinal products.
