Blemish Control Pads™
Medik8 Blemish control pads™ tough on breakouts but gentle on skin, blemish control pads™ dissolve oil and dirt from pores with maximum strength salicylic acid serum. Alcohol-free, they protect skin’s moisture balance and care for sensitive skin. Swipe over face after cleansing for clear, smooth, hydrated skin. Also use on back, neck, and arms to decongest body breakouts.
WHAT IT IS
Blemishes are formed when a pore becomes clogged with dead skin cells and oil. This creates the perfect environment for irritating bacteria to flourish.
- 2% salicylic acid, a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) that can penetrate deep within pores and decongest build up of dead skin cells, dirt and excess oil. This helps to reduce the formation of blemishes. Salicylic acid also works to soothe the appearance of red and sore breakouts.
- Infused with allantoin and glycerin, they protect the skin’s natural moisture balance to ward off dryness while healing and protecting for even the most sensitive of skin types.
HOW TO USE
-
After cleansing in the morning and/or evening, use a pad to gently wipe the face, avoiding the eye area and leaving a thin layer of liquid.
-
Allow to dry before moisturising.
-
Use up to twice per day.
-
Patch testing prior to use is advised. Refer to medik8.co/patch for an in-depth guide to patch testing.

INGREDIENTS
2% Salicylic Acid
Decongesting and exfoliating from within the pore, salicylic acid breaks down clogged skin cells which could cause blemishes. At 2%, it is the maximum strength available without prescription for best possible results.
Allantoin
A botanical extract naturally occurring in comfrey root, an ancient herb renowned for its therapeutic properties. Allantoin promotes speeding up cell renewal and softens skin.
Glycerin
Naturally present in our skin, glycerin draws water from the lower levels of the epidermis and from the atmosphere to itself. This helps to hydrate the complexion and enhance the skin’s natural barrier function.
