Medik8 shoppers 'shocked' by results of refillable 'gentle yet effective' toner

If you’re fed up with living with dry, dull-looking skin, beauty fans are raving about this ‘gentle yet effective’ toner from Medik8 which many say gives your skin an ‘instant glow.’

Driven by a passion to strive for 'better skin health' and facilitated by a background in physiology, pharmacology and biochemistry, Elliot Isaacs founded Medik8 in order to deliver results-driven formulas, informed by proven science - and the brand quickly built a loyal fanbase of in-the-know skincare experts, beauty editors and celebs including skincare queen Hailey Bieber and model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.

One product in particular which beauty fans swear by is this £28 Medik8 Press & Glow which gently exfoliates, resurfaces, hydrates and smooths without irritating sensitive skin, drying or leaving any sticky residue.

The £28 formula has been described as a gentler, more balanced alternative to AHAs as the tonic’s PHA solution contains larger molecules that won’t penetrate as deeply into the skin, but instead work on the surface of the skin.

This makes PHAs the perfect match for those with sensitive skin, who want to achieve daily exfoliation while keeping their skin barrier healthy. Inside the toner's forumla, you'll also find comforting aloe vera which helps to reduce irritation while also protecting against free radicals, encouraging moisture retention.

Prickly pear extract works as an enzyme activator - encouraging cell renewal and therefore helping to bestow you with the ultimate glow, all while diminishing the look of fine lines and wrinkles.

The affordable skincare hero has racked up plenty of fans too, with over 400 five-star customer reviews on Medik8's website.

One delighted customer said: "It’s gentle but effective. I used it daily as part of my evening routine before liquid peptides or a retenoid and it pairs beautifully. Love the dispenser which makes it easy to get the right amount."

A second added: "Love this product. I use it in a morning after I have cleansed before I apply Hydro B5 and Vitamin C intense serum and feel like my skin glows! Definitely worth adding to your everyday skin routine."

While a third said: "I love this. It’s leaves my skin feeling hydrated and glowing. I love the fact it come as a refill too."

With sustainable 200ml refills also available, this skin care hero is good for both your face and the planet!
