KEY INGREDIENTS

Encapsulated 2% Salicylic Acid (BHA)

Salicylic acid promotes a visibly clarified complexion by decongesting and exfoliating from within the pore. Innovative encapsulation technology ensures 2% salicylic acid is gradually delivered into your skin for comfortable daily use - even on sensitive complexions.

2% Tranexamic Acid

An effective brightening ingredient which works to visibly even areas of uneven skin tone. This also helps to minimise the appearance of post-blemish imperfections and dark spots.

Sake (pronounced 'SA-kay') Extract

Derived from fermented rice water, sake extract is rich in natural amino acids and works to hydrate the complexion while supporting the skin barrier.

Aloe Vera

A naturally-derived ingredient which works to soothe sensitive, blemish-prone skin. Keeps it feeling calm and hydrated.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE FORMULA

At Medik8, they recognise that blemish-prone skin is sensitive skin. Overloading the skin (particularly sensitive, blemish-prone skin) with high strength blemish treatments can result in an impaired skin barrier leading to damage, inflammation and further breakouts. That's why they expertly formulated Press & Clear to deliver powerful results, while supporting the skin barrier to maintain a healthy complexion. Many other BHA toners use low pHs, following the traditional theory that for an exfoliating acid to work, it requires a low pH to ‘activate’ within the skin. This is true for many acids, but salicylic acid is unique in that it is proven to be just as effective at exfoliating the skin at a neutral pH. Press & Clear's neutral pH of 5.5 matches that of your skin; retaining all of the power of 2% salicylic acid while making it much more suitable for the specific needs of sensitive, blemish-prone skin types.
