Description

Unlike many traditional acid toners, Press & Glow delivers effective yet gentle exfoliation without excessive dryness or discomfort, making it suitable even for sensitive skin, depending on individual tolerance.

At the heart of the formula is 5.5% gluconolactone, a next-generation polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that gently removes dead surface skin cells while helping attract and retain moisture.

With a larger molecular structure than many traditional alpha-hydroxy acids, PHA works primarily on the skin's surface, supporting gentle exfoliation with a reduced potential for irritation.

The formula is enhanced with prickly pear extract, a natural enzyme activator that helps support the skin's renewal process and improve visible smoothness, clarity, and radiance.

Acai extract provides antioxidant protection against free radical damage, while aloe vera helps soothe the complexion, maintain hydration, and support skin comfort.

By refining the skin's surface, Press & Glow helps create a smoother base for applying serums, moisturisers, and makeup.

According to Medik8's clinical study, Press & Glow improved skin radiance by 20% after 4 weeks of use.

The lightweight, refreshing water-based texture absorbs comfortably without leaving a sticky residue.
