The retinoid that means business — without the shock. Crystal Retinal 1 uses retinaldehyde, the form of vitamin A closest to retinoic acid, delivering faster, more efficient results than standard retinol with less irritation.
What it does:
- Gently accelerates cell turnover to smooth texture and refine pores
- Supports collagen production for firmer, more resilient skin
- Fades early pigmentation and evens skin tone
- Builds retinoid tolerance for long-term progression
Best for: Retinoid beginners or sensitive skin types. The ideal starting point for the Crystal Retinal journey.

Retinoids work best as part of the CSA framework — add vitamin C for morning protection and SPF to shield retinoid-sensitised skin.
