Product description
Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye is a vitamin A eye cream with retinaldehyde, specially formulated for the delicate eye area. The product helps to visually reduce crow's feet, fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles, puffiness and signs of tiredness around the eyes. The formula combines a gradual-release retinaldehyde with ceramides, hyaluronic acid filling spheres and chamomile extract to help smooth, hydrate, strengthen and visually lift the skin around the eyes.
Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye is designed as a gradual A vitamin eye-care system with three strengths so the skin can acclimatise to retinaldehyde and achieve visible results with better tolerability. Retinaldehyde is the next-generation form of vitamin A that works faster than retinol, but Medik8's special double-encapsulation technology ensures a very slow and even release of the active ingredient, making the formula suitable for the delicate eye area.
The product is suitable for those who want to improve the smoothness, firmness, radiance and overall appearance of the eye area as part of a night routine. The lowest strength is suitable for beginners, while the higher strengths are intended for regular and experienced vitamin A users. The formula is clinically tested, dermatologist recommended, dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested, free from fragrances and synthetic dyes. Certified by the Vegan Society.

Usage
Use in the evening after cleansing the skin. Apply a small amount of Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye around the eye area, avoiding the eyelids and direct contact with the eyes. When introducing the product into your routine, start gradually: for the first 2 weeks use twice a week, the next 2 weeks every other evening, then, if the skin tolerates it well, use every evening. If vitamin A products are being used in the eye area for the first time, start with the lowest strength. During the day, it is essential to use sunscreen. Before first use, it is recommended to perform a skin tolerance test 24 hours prior to use. Do not use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
