HOW Crystal Retinal WORKS
Clinical-grade vitamin A, otherwise known as retinoic acid, is an exceptionally powerful skincare ingredient for youthful-looking skin. Highly potent and wildy efficacious, it helps reduce the visible signs of ageing. Retinoic acid is only available with a prescription, but vitamin A is available over the counter in the form of retinol skincare products. Retinol has similar effects to retinoic acid, however it must first be converted to retinaldehyde and then to retinoic acid to be used by the skin. Crafted with retinaldehyde, Crystal Retinal 3 requires just one conversion to retinoic acid. This means that it is able to produce results comparable to retinoic acid up to 11 times faster than classic forms of retinol. The advanced active is carefully encapsulated in a crystal structure that is broken down by the skin’s natural enzymes when topically applied. This ensures maximum stability and absorption while allowing the vitamin A active to be released gradually into the skin while you sleep for minimal irritation. Combined with hydrating hyaluronic acid and skin-soothing vitamin E, Crystal Retinal 1 targets fine lines and wrinkles for smooth and visibly youthful skin. Unlike other forms of vitamin A, retinaldehyde boasts direct, powerful antibacterial properties. This allows it to target acne-causing bacteria; promoting a healthy, visibly clear complexion.

After cleansing in the evening, massage a small amount of Crystal Retinal 3 across the face, neck and and décolletage. Allow to absorb before applying your moisturiser.

Crystal Retinal 3 application should be phased in gradually. 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.

TIPS FOR BEGINNERS:
-
☑️ START LOW, GO SLOW
Start on a low strength of Retinal - Crystal Retinal 3 is perfect for those new to vitamin A. Always introduce the ingredient to your skin slowly so as not to overwhelm it. Once your skin has accepted the molecule without experiencing any sensitivity you can then move up to a higher strength to maximise your results. Super-sensitive skin types should start on Crystal Retinal 1.
-
☑️ PHASE-IN
It's important to phase in any retinoid gradually over the course of 4 weeks to allow the skin to get used to the molecule. For Crystal Retinal we recommend using twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks and then every night after that.
-
☑️ MOISTURISE
Always apply a ceramide-rich moisturiser after your vitamin as it will help to offset any dryness that may occur as your skin adjusts to your chosen retinoid. Advanced Night Restore is perfect for use with vitamin A serums, as it has been designed to enhance retinoid results.
-
☑️ SUNSCREEN
Don't forget to apply sunscreen the morning after. This is important as the vitamin A molecules are typically photosensitive, meaning they will break down and be ineffective if exposed to sunlight and increase your skin’s sensitivity to harmful UV rays.
