Nuestras Preguntas Frecuentes

He estado usando vitamina A antes de otra marca, ¿a qué debo pasar en Medik8?

As a general rule we say start on 1 strength lower than you were using from another brand. Unfortunately we do not know how stable the other brand’s retinol serum was; what was labelled as 1% retinol may actually be equivalent to a much lower concentration of retinol if it has degraded. Therefore, to stay on the safe side, we would recommend going lower in strength with our stabilised vitamin A serums to ease your skin into using them, and avoid irritation.

If retinol:

What percentage of retinol were you using in the other brand?

Don’t know - start on Retinol 3TR

0-0.6% - start on Intelligent Retinol 3TR

0.7-1% - start on Intelligent Retinol 6TR or start on Crystal Retinal 3

If retinyl retinoate - start on r-Retinoate Day & Night or r-Retinoate Intense

Estoy usando un suero Medik8 Intelligent Retinol. ¿Cómo cambio a Crystal Retinal?

In general we recommend that new users of Crystal Retinal start with Crystal Retinal 3. This is an effective, but relatively lower strength of retinaldehyde, to give your skin an opportunity to adjust to the new vitamin A molecule. There are a couple of exceptions depending on which retinol product you are currently using. Here is our guide:

If you have very sensitive skin -> Crystal Retinal 1

Night Ritual Vitamin A -> Crystal Retinal 3

Intelligent Retinol 3TR -> Crystal Retinal 3

Intelligent Retinol 6TR -> Crystal Retinal 3

Intelligent Retinol 10TR -> Crystal Retinal 6

Nunca he usado vitamina A antes, ¿por dónde empiezo?

At Medik8, we use three forms of Vitamin A: retinol, retinaldehyde, retinyl retinoate. You can start with any one of these molecules. We’d always recommend incorporating your vitamin A into our wider CSA regime - so pick a vitamin C and sunscreen for day also to really amplify results. Take a look at our CSA Kit Builder to find your perfect regime.

¿Cuándo debo incluir la vitamina A en mi rutina?

Every time you start on a new molecule of vitamin A (eg. switching between Intelligent Retinol and Crystal Retinal). Except when switching to r-Retinoate Day & Night, which is so gentle it doesn’t need to be phased in. You do not have to phase in when moving up strength in the same vitamin A ladder (eg. moving from Crystal Retinal 3 to Crystal Retinal 6).

Examples:

If moving from Intelligent Retinol to Crystal Retinal - phase in

If moving from Crystal Retinal 3 to Crystal Retinal 6 - don’t need to phase in

If moving from Intelligent Retinol/Crystal Retinal to r-Retinoate Day & Night - don’t need to phase in

If moving from Intelligent Retinol to r-Retinoate Intense - phase in (due to retinal content)

If moving from Crystal Retinal to r-Retinoate Intense - don’t need to phase in (same molecule: retinal)

¿Por qué puedo comenzar con r-Retinoate Intense pero no con Crystal Retinal 6?

r-Retinoate Intense is a nourishing cream formulation, which contains lots of emollients, squalane and ceramides, which minimise its potential for irritation on the skin, in comparison to Crystal Retinal 6 which is a lighter cream-serum. It also contains 3 types of Time Release Technology; polymer-encapsulated retinyl retinoate, crystal-encapsulated retinaldehyde, and polymer reservoir technology. All three modes of Time Release minimise the irritation potential for r-Retinoate Intense, and we are confident that most skin types will be able to phase this into their skincare routine without issue.
