Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6-more info
Clinical-grade vitamin A, or retinoic acid, is an exceptionally powerful skincare ingredient for youthful-looking skin. Highly potent and wildy efficacious, it helps reduce the visible signs of ageing.
Often, doctors have to prescribe retinoic acid. But this product is an over-the-counter skincare product that is as powerful as prescribed retinoic acid.
How the retinol in Medik8 works
Retinol has effects similar to retinoic acid. The skin must first convert it to retinaldehyde and then to retinoic acid. Crafted with retinaldehyde, Crystal Retinal 6 requires just one conversion to retinoic acid. This means it can produce results similar to retinoic acid 11 times faster than traditional forms of retinol.
The cream keeps the special ingredient safe in a crystal structure. Once you apply the cream, the skin’s natural enzymes break down this structure.
This occurs when the ingredient is applied to the skin. This ensures that the skin slowly releases active vitamin A while you sleep, reducing irritation. It also provides maximum stability and absorption.
Other ingredients
Crystal Retinal 6 contains hyaluronic acid and vitamin E. These ingredients target fine lines and wrinkles. They also leave your skin smooth and youthful. Unlike other forms of vitamin A, retinaldehyde boasts direct, powerful antibacterial properties. This allows it to target acne-causing bacteria, promoting a healthy, visibly clear complexion.
How to use
After cleansing in the evening, massage a small amount of Crystal Retinal 6 across the face, neck, and décolletage. Allow it to absorb before applying your moisturizer.
Crystal Retinal 6 application should be phased in gradually. Use twice a week for the first two weeks, every other night for the next two weeks, and then every night. Always wear sunscreen the following morning while using this product and for one week after. Consult a doctor if you are breastfeeding or pregnant.
