Product Description

Proven to deliver visibly clearer skin in just 7 days - without irritation*, discover Press & Clear.

The 2% BHA (beta hydroxy acid) toner stars salicylic and tranexamic acid, and is expertly formulated for sensitive, blemish-prone skin.

Proven to have better overall performance compared to the market-leading BHA toner,** experience Press & Clear's powerful yet gentle results for skin suffering from blemishes, oiliness, blackheads, enlarged pores and post-blemish dark marks.

Non-sticky, non-greasy, non-drying and available in a convenient pump bottle so you can press your way to clearer skin while improving skin barrier function. Also available in a sustainable refill option.

*Proven via independent consumer study conducted over 4 weeks on 50 participants with sensitive, blemish-prone skins.
**Proven via independent dual-placement consumer study conducted on 50 participants with sensitive, blemish-prone skins.

KEY BENEFITS
Get Clearer Skin - Faster
With continued use, expect fewer blemishes overall and quicker clearing of existing congestion.

Fewer Post-Blemish Dark Spots
Features 2% tranexamic acid for fast, targeted action on lingering post-blemish marks.

Dramatic Pore Reduction
Delivers powerful, proven action on the appearance of blackheads and pores.

Healthy Skin Barrier
Unlike many other BHAs, our pH-balanced formula is clinically proven to improve skin barrier function, so you get visible results without compromising your skin barrier.

Effective and Soothing
Features sake extract and aloe vera to ensure optimal comfort for sensitive, blemish-prone skin.

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.

Ingredient Icon 2
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.

Ingredient Icon 3
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.

Ingredient Icon 4
Aloe Vera
A naturally-derived ingredient which works to soothe sensitive, blemish-prone skin. Keeps it feeling calm and hydrated.

Directions

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.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Hydrating & targets [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The only reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is because I haven't been using it quite long enough but I will say that this is a fantastic toner and really does cater to the skin concerns they mention it targets. Feels lovely on the skin when it dries now, makes my skin feel plump and hydrated. Will definitely become part of my routine now.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gentle, refreshing and keeps my skin clear [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a huge fan of Press & Clear. I use it once or twice a day depending on how my skin is feeling and I love how refreshing it feels. Unlike other exfoliating toners I've tried, it never leaves my skin feeling dry or stripped. It keeps everything balanced and clear while still being gentle enough for regular use. Such a great product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gentle on my skin [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Press & Clear is one of my favourite Medik8 products. It’s incredibly easy to use and gives all the benefits of a BHA exfoliant without the dryness or irritation I’ve experienced with similar products in the past. Since using it regularly, my skin feels smoother, looks clearer and has much less congestion. It helps keep my pores looking refined and gives my complexion a fresher, healthier appearance. The pump packaging is also brilliant and makes application quick and mess-free. I love that it’s effective enough to make a visible difference while still being gentle on my sensitive skin. A product I’ll always keep in my skincare routine.
