Azelaic acid?
Hey! Can this be used together with azelaic acid? And is it recommended when you have a weak skin barrier?Translated from swedish
639 views- 2 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?Translated from swedish
815 views- Former employee2 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! 🌞🩷

Which night cream goes best with the serum?
I've never used retinal before and got this serum delivered today :) I usually use Ole Henriksen Goodnight Glow Bakuchiol Sleeping Crème, but I see that it can't be used with the serum. I'm considering ordering Origins Plantscription Youth-Renewing Power Night Cream. Will that work? I have combination skin but need a lot of moisture in the winter.Translated from norwegian

Hi, how many evenings a week should this be used? I'm a beginner with retinal?Translated from swedish
2244 views- Farmaceut på Lyko7 monthsHey Julia✨ It's always important to start slowly and try on a small area first for a few days, like on your neck or in the crease of your arm to test your skin's tolerance. One evening a week is a good start to also see how your skin feels since all skin is unique. Patch testing and cautious introduction are important🤝🏻 Don't forget sunscreen during the day☀️ Hope you enjoy this and have a lovely day😊

Combo with salicylic acid?
Hey, if I'm not completely off base, shouldn't you not use this and salicylic acid together in the evening? I use Paula's Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant - do these two products seem similar so I only need to use one of them? Or can/should I continue using them every other evening? Also, I'm wondering if I can use this in combo with Murad Rapid Relief Spot Treatment? Since I spot treat my pimples with it.Translated from swedish
2337 views- Customer service at Lyko9 monthsHey Sanna!🤩👋🏻 It’s true that it can be a bit too strong for the skin to combine A-vitamin and exfoliating acids like salicylic acid in the same routine. However, it works fine if you use them in different routines, like on different nights of the week.🤩 Regarding spot treatment, a tip could be to apply the products in the same routine but on different parts of the face so you’re not layering them on top of each other.🤩 This way, the skin won’t experience the same irritation, but if your skin does react, I recommend splitting them into two routines as well.🌟 Take care!

Which night cream can be used together with this?
I use Emma S ageless night cream, can I use it together with Medik8 crystal retinal?Translated from swedish
1902 views- Customer service at Lyko9 monthsHello there! Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend using them together since Emma S also contains A-vitamin. One should be a bit careful when combining active ingredients from different brands ❤️ Take care!

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.
