Product Details
Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 is a gentle yet effective overnight serum featuring 0.03% encapsulated retinaldehyde, a next-generation vitamin A that works up to 11 times faster than retinol. Its crystal-encapsulated, slow-release formula minimizes irritation while boosting collagen production and cellular renewal to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation. Infused with hyaluronic acid and glycerin for deep hydration, and vitamin E for antioxidant protection, it also combats acne-causing bacteria for a clearer complexion.
