Medik8 Press & Glow

Brightening 5.5% PHA Tonic with Gluconolactone & Enzyme Activator

Clinically proven to deliver glowing skin in just 2 weeks*, Medik8's innovative answer to traditionally stinging and drying acid toners is here - Press & Glow. Press & Glow gently removes dead surface skin cells to reveal a smoother skin texture with a noticeable everyday glow. Over time, it helps to create a visibly perfected skin surface which is better at absorbing active ingredients like vitamin C and A, and creates a smoother base for makeup. Press & Glow is formulated with the power of polyhydroxy acid (PHA) gluconolactone (pronounced 'gloo-cona-LAC-tone'). Unlike traditional PHAs, which can be drying on the skin, this hydrating and refining acid toner is proven to be gentle enough for twice-a-day use - even on sensitive skin. Also available in a refill option.

Key Ingredients

• 5.5% Gluconolactone (PHA) – A high-performing polyhydroxy acid (PHA), gluconolactone (pronounced 'gloo-cona-LAC-tone') works by converting into gluconic acid to gently exfoliate and hydrate the skin surface. The result is a visibly smoother, glowing and more even skin surface.
• Prickly Pear Extract – A natural enzyme activator, it helps to boost the skin's natural exfoliation process as well as its rate of cell renewal. This helps to improve the visible clarity and luminosity of the skin, as well as the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
• Acai Extract (pronounced 'ah-sigh-ee') – This natural extract can help to calm inflammation, while protecting the skin against the damaging and ageing effects of free radicals.
• Aloe Vera – A natural anti-inflammatory which works to soothe the skin while promoting its natural healing process.
