Discover the future of BHA exfoliation with Medik8 Press & Clear. This innovative, gentle-release 2% Salicylic Acid toner works to visibly clarify, smooth, and brighten your complexion without compromising your skin's delicate barrier. Perfect for those seeking clear, radiant skin with a kind-to-skin touch.

What It Is

Medik8 Press & Clear is a true breakthrough in BHA skincare. It’s a daily-use toner formulated with encapsulated, slow-release 2% Salicylic Acid (BHA) at an optimised, skin-friendly pH of ~5.5. Designed specifically for sensitive, blemish-prone skin yet effective for all skin types, this toner helps to improve the appearance of blemishes, oiliness, blackheads, visible pores, and uneven skin tone. Its unique formula ensures powerful results while remaining exceptionally gentle, preventing dryness or irritation often associated with BHA products.

How To Use

For optimal results and a seamless experience, follow these steps:

  1. Unlock: Twist the top half of the pump anti-clockwise until it clicks to activate.
  2. Dispense: After cleansing in the morning and/or evening, hold a reusable cotton pad firmly over Press & Clear and push down 3-4 times to saturate the pad.
  3. Apply: Gently sweep the pad over the complexion, avoiding the delicate eye area.
  4. Secure: Twist the pump clockwise until it clicks to secure and prevent leakage.
  5. New Users: If you are new to BHA or have sensitive skin, apply once a day and observe your skin's response. Gradually increase to twice daily if desired and well-tolerated.
  6. Patch Test: Patch testing prior to first use is advised. Apply a small amount to a discreet area and wait 24 hours.

No need to rinse. Follow with your usual serums and moisturiser. Always use sunscreen during the day when using exfoliating acids.

Ingredients

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.
