Great product, bad packaging.
The only reason I've knocked a star off this glorious but gentle retinal is because the packaging is awful. You'll think it's great until it starts to run out, you'll squeeze it, you'll shake it, and just as you're about to throw it out you'll decide to cut it open to see if there's a few more days worth of product in there. There is not just a few days worth, but SIX WEEKS worth more of product trapped by the nozzle. Absolutely ridiculous. Medik8, your potions are wonderful, but please, please sort your packaging out - this is way too expensive to throw away 6 whole weeks worth of product just because it's in the wrong packaging.

Love it. It works!
I'm now on my second or third tube of the Medik8 Crystal 6 and I swear by it. It delivers on all aspects a retinol product should (and the formulation is actually retinal, which is better and more effective than retinol). I have sensitive skin and did never experience any irritation or dryness, flakiness or discomfort. And I started with a potency 6 straightaway, not realising at first that Medik8 Crystal has a 3 as well. Fine lines and wrinkles are diminishing, skin texture is overall much improved and skin tone is homogeneous. Highly recommended. The whole Medik8 range is excellent.

Lovely retinal
I love that Medik8 are so science based. Their Crystal Retinal range is such a great way to get into Vitamin A. The fact that they offer different strengths is fantastic, however the formula is beautiful. I had dabbled in Vitamin A product’s previously, so started at 6. It’s such a great formula - super smooth, not irritating and skin just instantly looks better. Not too sure long term on anti aging benefits or around spots, but a good start

Slow and steady
I moved on to the 10 too quickly and found it quiet irritating on the skin. With retinol you need to move up quiet slowely to allow yr skin to adjust. I love this number 6 and find it has really helped the appearance of fine lines within a short space of time. I wake up to a more glowing radiant complexion.

Love it
I love Medik8 Retinal products. I am on 6 now and hopefully will move onto 10 once my current tube is finished. I have tried many retinols and this is definitely one of the bests out there. Just remember to go slowly as it will be irritating at the start.
