Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 6 is about to become a mainstay in your eye care ritual.
The skin around the eye is naturally thinner, drier, more expressive and prone to sensitivity, making it more prone to wrinkles and in constant need of replenishment. This innovative, multitasking, hardworking formula from the skincare experts at Medik8 has been specifically formulated for the delicate skin around the eyes, and is here to boost brightness, radiance, and smoothness in a big way.
This all-in-one eye solution is formulated with 0.06% twin encapsulated Retinal, plus Ceramides, and plumping Hyaluronic Acid filling spheres, to smooth under eyes and improve the appearance of fine lines, crows feet, puffiness and dullness. Eyes look brighter, smoother and more lifted after just one use, and feel nourished thanks to the addition of comforting ceramides. If you are currently a regular Vitamin A user, or those currently using the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6 face serum, we think you two will get on great.

What are the key ingredients in Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 6?
Twin-encapsulated retinaldehyde 0.06%
If you’re not already familiar with Retinaldehyde (AKA Retinal), this is a next-generation Vitamin A that has been proven to act 11x faster than retinol. Twin-encapsulated retinaldehyde combines cyclodextrin (crystal) and microsponge encapsulated retinaldehyde into a unique delivery system that ultra-slowly releases retinal into the skin for minimal irritation, unlike other forms of retinol, while helping to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, texture, and the visible signs of ageing.
Ceramides
Found naturally in the skin barrier, ceramides infuse skin with nourishment while comforting and supporting the delicate eye area.
Hyaluronic Acid Filling Spheres
Hyaluronic Acid Filling Spheres fill with moisture, expanding within lines and wrinkles for plumper, smoother-looking skin.
Chamomile Extract
Chamomile extract (AKA bisabolol) is a natural antioxidant that works to protect skin against environmental aggressors, while providing a comforting and calming effect.
Who should use Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 6?
Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 3 is suitable for regular Vitamin A users. If you’re currently using Medik8 Crystal Retinal 6 face serum, this one’s for you.
How to use Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 6
At night after cleansing and applying all of your other face serums apply a rice grain-sized amount of Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 6 around the eye area, avoiding the eyelids.
Use your fingertips to gently pat the formula into the eye contours.
As with all Vitamin A formulas, application should be phased in gradually:
- Start by using this eye solution twice a week for the first 2 weeks
- Then every other night for the next 2 weeks
- Then every night
Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye should only be used in the evening after cleansing, toning and applying a vitamin A face serum (we recommend pairing with
Medik8 Crystal Retinal).
