Who it is for

Best suited to expert vitamin A users.

How to use

Use twice weekly for the first two weeks, every other night for the next two weeks, then nightly if tolerated. Apply after cleansing, follow with moisturiser and use sunscreen the next morning.

Why Dr Mo recommends it

The progressive strength ladder allows results to build while respecting skin tolerance.

Introduce active skincare gradually. Maintain good hydration and reduce frequency if dryness or irritation develops.

HOW TO USE

First-time use

If you're new to Crystal Retinal we recommend a patch test at least 24 hours before first use. Learn how to patch test here.

Phase application in gradually. Use twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks, then every night.

Step 1

After cleansing in the evening, apply 2 pumps of Crystal Retinal to the face and neck. Allow to absorb.

Step 2

Follow with a moisturiser. We recommend Advanced Night Restore which is engineered to be used after vitamin A (retinoids).

Step 3

Always use a sunscreen the next morning after using vitamin A. We recommend Advanced Day Ultimate Protect.

NOTE

We recommend using at least 1 tube of your current Crystal Retinal strength before moving up the ladder to the next strength.

KEY INGREDIENTS

Retinaldehyde
Proven to work up to 11 times faster than standard retinol, [2] retinaldehyde (retinal for short) is a revolutionary form of vitamin A that effectively targets the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin texture and loss of firmness - without irritation

Hyaluronic Acid
With the ability to attract and retain more than 1,000 times its own weight in water, hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the upper layers of the skin; leaving the complexion hydrated and visibly supple.

Vitamin E
A powerful antioxidant that provides additional antioxidant protection against the ageing effects of free radicals. It also helps to boost the power of vitamin C for optimum visible results.

Glycerin
A natural humectant which traps moisture within the skin to leave it hydrated and comfortable.
