Retinal newbies, this serum’s for you. Medik8 offers different strengths of its Crystal Retinal formula: With 0.03% retinaldehyde, this one is great for anyone giving vitamin A a try for the very first time. While I’ve been using these types of products for years, my skin can be sensitive, but I didn’t experience any redness, flaking, or irritation with this product. Plus, it has a super creamy texture that melts right into your skin, making it a joy to apply—and easy to layer under the rest of my nighttime routine. Very important: Skip this‚ or any other retinal, if you’re pregnant.
