Key Ingredients
Twin-Encapsulated Retinaldehyde

Proven to work up to 11 times faster than standard retinol,* retinaldehyde (retinal for short) is a revolutionary form of vitamin A that effectively targets the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, discolouration, uneven skin texture and loss of firmness. Medik8's unique twin encapsulation technology produces an ultra-slow release, gradient effect of retinal in the skin to ensure equal power and gentleness on the delicate eye area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye while 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.
When should I use Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye? And how much should I apply?
You should apply Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye as part of your evening skincare routine - after cleansing, direct acids, and Crystal Retinal (for the face), but before your moisturiser. Apply a rice-sized amount per eye, per application.
Can I use Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 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 Ceramide Eye every night. For new users of Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye, 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.
Do I need to follow Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye with another eye cream?
No. Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye is expertly designed to deliver everything you need in a nighttime eye cream; age-defying results alongside deep nourishment and comfort.
