How to Use

Use in the evening only. After cleansing, apply a small amount of Crystal Retinal® 6 to the face, neck and décolleté. Allow to absorb, then follow with your preferred moisturiser. Introduce gradually: use twice weekly for the first two weeks, every other night for the next two weeks, then nightly as tolerated. Always apply a broad-spectrum SPF during daytime use and for 7 days after final application.

Safety Advice

Avoid eye contact; rinse thoroughly if contact occurs. Discontinue use if irritation develops. Do not apply to broken or inflamed skin. Vitamin A increases sun sensitivity — daily SPF essential. Seek medical advice before using if pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking oral vitamin A/retinoids. Patch testing is recommended (see medik8.co/patch).
