With sustainability and environmental impact central to Medik8’s ongoing brand mission, new packaging has been crafted for Press & Clear™ to help reduce plastic waste.
With Press & Clear, we recognise that blemish-prone skin is sensitive skin.
Overloading the skin, particularly sensitive, blemish-prone skin, with harsh treatments can lead to a compromised skin barrier.
The skin becomes prone to damage, inflammation and further breakouts.
At Medik8, we have formulated Press & Clear to deliver incredible results with daily use, whilst supporting the skin barrier to maintain a healthy-looking complexion.
Maximum strength BHA (2%) salicylic acid is oil-soluble and can dive deep into pores to help break down the blockages that can lead to breakouts and congestion.
Press & Clear promotes a visibly clarified, decongested complexion. Salicylic acid is optimally delivered with our crystal encapsulation slow-release delivery system.
This allows the salicylic acid to slowly release to avoid discomfort on sensitive, fragile skins, whilst maintaining potency.
Press & Clear features a highly skin-friendly pH of ~5.5. Whilst other exfoliating acids, such as AHAs, require low pHs to work on the skin, salicylic acid is special in that it is an effective exfoliant at both low and more neutral pHs.
Our balanced pH contributes to the non-stinging, gentle experience when using Press & Clear.
The brightening ingredient, tranexamic acid, works to visibly even skin tone, helping to minimise the appearance of stubborn post-blemish marks and imperfections.
Sake extract and aloe vera calm and hydrate the skin, offsetting any dryness that occurred during and after the blemish.
The skin barrier is nourished and supported; resilient against future breakouts.
