I started twice a week for the first two weeks, then gradually moved up as recommended, and my skin never felt stripped or sensitised. I apply it at night after cleansing, then follow with moisturiser, and I always wear SPF the next morning. A few weeks in, my texture looks smoother and my skin tone feels more even. It's not an overnight transformation, but the gradual, gentle approach is exactly what made me stick with it. Great starting point if you're new to vitamin A. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Useful *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 27 August 2026* I use once or twice a week. Brilliant! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice product. Can use on rosacea prone skin *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 12 December 2021* Was very wary about trying this product as i have couperose skin across my cheeks and was worried it may aggravate it. I used it 2 times a week firs then upped it to 3 times, now i use it most days. Its the 'weakest' of the Medik8 retinals at No. 1 but so far it seems to be working. Skin feels and looks smoother and so far hasnt hurt or stung my rosey cheeks. ## Frequently Bought Together - Medik8 Crystal retinal 1 night serum 30ml - Medik8 Surface Radiance Cleanse - AHA and BHA Daily Face Cleanser - Exfoliating, Gentle Foaming Face Wash - Anti-Aging Facial Cleanser - 5.0 oz - Medik8 C-Tetra Day Cream - Lipid Vitamin C Face Cream - Hydrates, Smoothens and Brightens - Luminous and Lightweight Face Moisturizer - 1.7 oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/221954853-medik8-crystal-retinal](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/221954853-medik8-crystal-retinal) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
