How to Use

Step 1

Apply 2 pumps of Exo-PDRN Prismatic+ to cleansed skin, morning and evening, to the face and neck. Allow to fully absorb. 

Step 2

In the morning, apply Daily Radiance Vitamin C evenly across the face and neck.

Step 3

If you're new to Crystal Retinal we recommend a patch test at least 24 hours before first use. Learn how to patch test here.

In the evening, apply 2 pumps of Crystal Retinal to the face and neck and follow with a moisturiser. We recommend Advanced Night Restore. 

For new users of Crystal Retinal, phase in application gradually. Use twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks, then every night. You should always use sunscreen the next morning after using vitamin A.

We recommend using at least 1 tube of your current strength before moving up the ladder to the next strength.

Available Strengths

Ladder up your visible age-defying results over time with Crystal Retinal's 5 progressive strengths (0.01% - 0.2% retinaldehyde) - only available at Medik8. For those with very sensitive skin, we recommend starting with Crystal Retinal 1 (0.01%). However, most Crystal Retinal and vitamin A beginners start on Crystal Retinal 3 (0.03%). If you're an experienced vitamin A user already, start at Crystal Retinal 6 (0.06%) before working your way up to Crystal Retinal 10 (0.1%) and finally Crystal Retinal 20 (0.2%). Not sure which strength is right for you? Take our simple quiz to find out.

Frequently Asked Questions

When, and how, should I apply Crystal Retinal - do I need to phase it into my routine?
Yes. You should apply Crystal Retinal as part of your evening skincare routine - after cleanser, toner and serums, but before your moisturiser. We always recommend phasing Crystal Retinal into your existing skincare regimen; using it twice a week for two weeks, then every other night for two weeks, then every night after that. You do not have to phase in when moving up a strength within the Crystal Retinal ladder (e.g. when moving from Crystal Retinal 3 to Crystal Retinal 6)
Can I use Exo-PDRN Prismatic+ with exfoliating acids?

Yes. Exo-PDRN Prismatic+ can be applied after exfoliating acids. We recommend following with a moisturiser to help support the skin barrier and minimise the risk of any dryness.

Can I use Crystal Retinal every night?
As long as you build your use up gradually and start with the appropriate strength to begin with, you can use Crystal Retinal every night. For new users of Crystal Retinal, we strongly recommend that you phase-in application to enable your skin to build up a tolerance while avoiding any potential irritation. Use twice a week for the first two weeks, every other night for the following two weeks, then every night.
Can I use Crystal Retinal while pregnant or breastfeeding?
As a cosmetics company, we are unable to provide product advice in relation to medical conditions such as pregnancy or breastfeeding. We strongly recommend discussing the ingredients with your GP or midwife before use. We do, however, generally recommend avoiding vitamin A use while pregnant or breastfeeding, which is why we offer a plant-based vitamin A alternative - Bakuchiol Peptides.
Does Daily Radiance Vitamin C protect against UVA and UVB rays?
Yes. Daily Radiance Vitamin C is formulated with premium UV filters which provide broad spectrum protection against both UVA (ageing) and UVB (burning) rays.
