Skincare Routine
Hey! I use this and really like it! However, I'm not completely satisfied with my other skincare routine at the moment since I usually have oily skin with some redness, but I feel like it has gotten worse. What skincare products would you recommend to combine with the retinal based on my skin type? ☺️ Thankful for any response!26 views- Customer service at Lyko2 daysHey there!😍 Skincare can really be tricky, there’s so much to think about!

Question
Hi! Can this be combined with Exuviance radiance serum, exuviance antiredness calming serum, and exuviance glycolic expert moisturizer? Best regards, Isabell58 views- Farmaceut på Lyko6 daysHi Isabell😊 Thank you for your question!✨ Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 is an active and effective A-vitamin product, but since you are already using products with active ingredients – like glycolic acid and exfoliating serums – it might be a bit too much for the skin, especially if you are already experiencing redness and sensitivity. To avoid stressing the skin, I recommend that you: - Introduce Retinal slowly (e.g. 1-2 evenings/week) - Avoid combining it with acids the same evening - Continue with soothing products on the evenings you use Retinal Feel free to try it on a small area first to see how your skin reacts, and back off if you experience sensitivity so that the skin barrier is not disrupted and irritated. Also, don’t forget sunscreen during the day regardless🌞 I hope my answer can be helpful and that you have a lovely Friday&weekend🌻

Curious to start using
Hi, I've read a lot of good things about this and will use it for acne. Currently, I'm using LRP Effaclar H-Iso-Biome cleanser and cream. Does it work together? I'm also using Effaclar Duo+ as a night cream, but I'm thinking of stopping that! I would love to receive tips on new cleansers as well as day cream/night cream. Thanks in advance!370 views- Skin therapist at Lyko1 monthHey Elin! Yes, it has received a lot of positive feedback 👌 It's good to combine it with iso biome h for both cleansing and cream, but not duo, but you were thinking of stopping that anyway. Start slow and just get used to it! Other alternatives that are good with retinal: lyko.com/sv/medik8/medik8-gentlecleanse-150ml lyko.com/sv/niche-beauty-lab/acnemy-zitcalm-moisturizer-50-ml lyko.com/sv/niche-beauty-lab/acnemy-zitcontrol-spf50-40-ml Good luck 🤍1 likes

Suitable night cream?
Does this go well with the Filorga Time Filler 5xp cream that I use as a night cream? I'm also wondering if it works with the Emma S. Ageless Night cream, which I alternate with? Thanks in advance!529 views- 1 monthThank you so much for the reply! Then I will use it with Filorgan. Was unsure about which acid it was (or if it counted as A-vitamin) in the Emm S night cream.

Azelaic acid?
Hey! Can this be used together with azelaic acid? And is it recommended when you have a weak skin barrier?1229 views- 4 monthsThank you for the great answers! I have been prescribed azelaic acid by my doctor. I have tried most other things, but I don't think there's anything that helps.

Can these be combined?
Hi, can you use this serum and use mesoestetics Resurfacing Peel Booster the evening after?1288 views- Former employee5 monthsHey Alexandra! 👋🏻☺️ This is an active A-vitamin product that works deeply with skin renewal, and the Mesoestetic Resurfacing Peel Booster contains acids (AHA/BHA) that also exfoliate the skin. Since both products are powerful and can be taxing on the skin, especially with sensitivity, we recommend that you do not use them two nights in a row. This can increase the risk of irritation, redness, or dryness 🩷 A good alternative is to alternate with at least one rest day in between, preferably with moisturizing and soothing skincare in between. For example 👇🏻☺️ Monday: Crystal Retinal Tuesday: Rest/moisturizing Wednesday: Resurfacing Peel Booster Thursday: Rest, etc. Good luck! 🌞🩷1 likes

Question
Can you use a skin roller before this product?1139 views- Skin therapist at Lyko5 monthsHi Lina, since this product is very active in itself, I wouldn't recommend it in conjunction with a skin roller. Have a nice day! 🌞

Medik8Skin AgeingCrystal Retinal 3 Night Serum 30 ml
Rediscover youthful skin with Crystal Retinal™, Medik8’s latest innovation in vitamin A is now available in four strengths. Formulated with stabilised retinal, a powerful derivative of vitamin A with next-generation anti-ageing results. Unmatched in its age-defying power, retinal can deliver results comparable to clinical-grade vitamin A up to 11 times faster than classic forms of retinol.1 The ground-breaking overnight serum visibly minimises fine lines and wrinkles; firming and plumping 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 supple, even-toned, more youthful-looking complexion. More than that, it actively helps reduce blemish-causing bacteria to keep skin clear and balanced. In just 4 weeks, skin is noticeably younger, smoother and undeniably radiant.
Crystal Retinal 3
Stable Retinal Night Serum Medium-Strength Vitamin A
The entry point for those who are new to vitamin A or have tried mild retinol formulas and the answer to those looking to prevent early signs of skin ageing.
0.03% Encapsulated Retinaldehyde.
Use:
After cleansing in the evening, massage a small amount of Crystal Retinal across the face, neck and décolletage. Allow to absorb before applying your moisturiser. Crystal Retinal application should be phased in gradually, and only use in the evening. Use twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks, then every night. Always wear sunscreen the following morning while using this product, and for 1 week after. Consult a doctor if breastfeeding or pregnant.
