Meet the world’s first clinical-strength retinal for under eyes, Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye, which can visibly reduce the look of wrinkles around the eyes with just one use.
Remember when we were salivating over Crystal Retinal, an anti-ageing serum that uses retinaldehyde, an advanced form of Vitamin A that can work up to 11 times faster than traditional retinol? Now those clever scientists at Medik8 have raised the bar even higher.
Inspired by the multi-award-winning Crystal Retinal serum for the face, Medik8 has formulated Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye specifically for under-eye rejuvenation. It is clinically proven to help reduce the appearance of crow’s feet, wrinkles, fine lines and puffiness*, while remaining gentle on the delicate eye area.**
With just one use, 94% showed a clinical improvement to the look of wrinkles around the eyes*
Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye: the science
In a world first, Medik8’s #1 skincare ingredient, retinaldehyde, has been stabilised at a clinical strength and combined with ceramides and hyaluronic acid filling spheres to create Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye.
‘’We know the skin around the eyes differs to facial skin; it is thinner, drier and more prone to muscle movement,’ explains Daniel Isaacs, Medik8’s Director of Research. ‘This can result in skin that is more sensitive, in constant need of replenishment and is more likely to form wrinkles earlier. We have carefully optimised our formula to harness the power of the retinal molecule in a way that truly benefits the eyes.’
Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye features twin-encapsulated retinaldehyde – Medik8’s most gentle delivery system yet. The system combines cyclodextrin (crystal) encapsulated retinaldehyde with microsponge encapsulated retinaldehyde to ensure the ultra-slow release of retinal power for effective yet non-irritating results.
The formula is further stabilised by Medik8’s patent-pending carrot seed oil complex as well as an innovative stability system consisting of airless packaging with a check valve and an aluminium finish – all of which prevent oxygen and UV light from degrading the formula. A cannula nozzle ensures precise application and dosage to help prevent product waste.
The serum itself is lightweight and fast-absorbing to reduce any migration of the product and potential irritation. 100% of sensitive skins found Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 3 to be gentle on the delicate eye area.**
As part of the brand’s unique Crystal Retinal ladder, Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye is available in three strengths to help deliver progressive visible results in one night-time step.
