Hi! My skin can apparently handle strong retinol serums (have tried Ordinary 1%, can use it every day). What strength should I go for with this? I have some fine lines on my forehead and no major skin issues.

Hello Mikaela! 😊
Since you have already used The Ordinary Retinol 1% without any issues, it sounds like your skin is accustomed to vitamin A. Just keep in mind that Medik8 Crystal Retinal contains retinal, which is a more potent form than retinol.
Based on what you describe, I would recommend starting with Crystal Retinal 6.
If you have very resilient skin and have used retinoids for a longer time, Crystal Retinal 10 could also be an option, but introduce it gradually ✨
Remember to avoid using retinol/retinal products during the day if you know you will be out in the sun, and always use sunscreen during the day! 🌞
