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.
Step 1
Unlock by twisting the top half of the pump anti-clockwise until it clicks.
Step 2
After cleansing in the morning and/or evening, hold a facial pad (reusable is best) firmly over Press & Clear and push down 3-4 times.
Step 3
Sweep the pad over the complexion, avoiding the delicate eye area.
Step 4
To secure, twist the pump clockwise until it clicks. For Press & Clear Refill, transfer the pump saved from your previous Press & Clear bottle onto the Press & Clear Refill. Twist clockwise until it clicks into place.
NOTE: Store out of direct sunlight. New users should apply once a day and note the skin’s response, then use up to twice daily.
How do I use Press & Clear?
After cleansing, apply to a cotton pad or press directly into skin with fingertips. Allow to absorb before applying serums or moisturiser.
How does salicylic acid help with breakouts?
Salicylic acid is oil-soluble, meaning it penetrates into pores to dissolve excess sebum and dead skin cells. This makes it highly effective for blackheads, whiteheads, and inflammatory acne. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that help calm redness.
Will this cause purging or breakouts?
Products with active ingredients like retinol, AHAs, or BHAs may cause a temporary purging phase as they accelerate cell turnover. This typically lasts 4-6 weeks and differs from a breakout — purging occurs in areas where you normally get spots and resolves on its own.
What is the Medik8 CSA Philosophy?
Medik8 is built around the CSA Philosophy: vitamin C in the morning, Sunscreen every day, and vitamin A (retinol) at night. This three-step framework addresses the most evidence-backed pillars of skin health — antioxidant protection, UV defence, and cellular renewal.
