SKIN
have harnessed the power of a
new, advanced form of Vitamin A,
retinaldehyde, which is the star
ingredient in its Crystal Retinal TM
skincare range.
Unlike retinol, which must first
be converted to retinaldehyde and
then to retinoic acid within the
skin, Crystal Retinal TM only requires
one conversion to retinoic acid.
This means it can deliver results
comparable to clinical-grade Vitamin
A up to 11x faster than classic forms
of retinol.
However, retinaldehyde is almost
impossible to stabilise; hence the
lack of products including the
ingredient on the market. Rising
to the challenge, the scientists at
Medik8 were the first to stabilise this
ingredient through a double-layered
stabilisation system; combining
an ingenious crystal encapsulation
that gives the range its name
with a patent-pending formula
stabilisation complex to maximise the
retinaldehyde’s stability.
NEXT-GEN
ANTI-AGEING
RESULTS
Crystal Retinal TM 20 is formulated
with stabilised retinal, a powerful
derivative of Vitamin A with nextgeneration
anti-ageing results.
The groundbreaking overnight
serum visibly minimises fine lines
and wrinkles; firming and plumping
the appearance of the complexion
to resurface skin texture and soften
the face. Featuring hyaluronic acid,
glycerin and Vitamin E, it hydrates
skin at every level to deliver a visibly
supple, even-toned, more youthfullooking
complexion.
More than that, it actively helps
reduce blemish-causing bacteria to
keep skin looking clear and balanced.
In just four weeks, skin appears
noticeably younger, smoother and
undeniably radiant.
