Our top picks from Medik8 Medik8 Press & Clear - £35

If you're like me and love the idea of clear skin 24/7, the first thing worth adding to your list is the Press & Clear solution. With results in as little as 7 days, this BHA toner is expertly designed for sensitive, blemish-prone skin.

Featuring a powerful blend of salicylic acid and tranexamic acid, this gentle toner effectively targets blemishes, excess oil, blackheads, enlarged pores, and post-blemish dark spots. Press & Clear provides non-sticky, non-greasy, and non-drying results, helping to refine and clarify your complexion.

It also leaves you with visibly glowing skin, and the easy-to-use pump bottle makes application effortless, so you can press your way to healthier-looking skin.

One customer shared in a review: "Medik8’s Press & Clear is a lifesaver for breakouts. The gentle yet effective formula with salicylic acid keeps my skin clear without drying it out. It’s super easy to use, absorbs quickly, and the travel size is perfect for keeping my skin in check on the go."

However, some users noted that the formula wasn't as gentle as they thought, one comment read: "A good toner, but not for everyday usage. During three weeks of everyday use twice a day, my skin became dry with irritation in my cheeks."

Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 (Beginners) - £49

If you're a beginner to retinol serums, the Crystal Retinal 3 is the one for you. This formula makes it super simple to achieve younger-looking skin with just one tube. The iconic vitamin A night serum is clinically proven to smooth wrinkles, brighten dark spots, clear congestion, and firm skin - all in one.

Powered by retinAL, a next-generation form of vitamin A, it works 11x faster than traditional retinols, and offers more radiant skin. The game-changing serum has been praised online with over 4,000 positive reviews.

One shopper noted: "After months and months of researching I kept coming back to Medik8. I went for the strength 6 in the retinal & the eye cream, with the moisturiser.

"I'm now over a month in and couldn’t be without it. My texture has improved, people are noticing my fine lines looking better. I’m 33 and was looking for something other than cosmetic procedures."

A second buyer said: "Excellent serum, works perfectly for my sensitive skin. Did not have any irritation or dryness. I will definitely continue to buy it." However, it wasn't all roses. One buyer shared in a review: "Although it had a nice creamy consistency and light fragrance, I did not notice a change in my face's appearance."

Medik8 Hydr8 B5 Intense 30ml - £59

The Hydra B5 is the most potent hyaluronic acid serum, it's clinically proven to smooth, plump, and deeply hydrate, which is ideal for tired skin.

One happy shopper reported: "Absorbs into my skin really quickly, leaving my skin feeling smooth and hydrated. Hydra8 B5 Intense is now a favourite in my skin care routine!"

Building on the success of the bestselling Hydr8 B5, this supercharged version is enriched with superfood antioxidants to enhance hydration and strengthen the skin's natural barrier. The silky-soft texture absorbs effortlessly, leaving skin feeling supple.

With over 1,000 positive reviews online, customers have been quick to praise the hydrator. Another comment read: "I have to say it, this is a really good hyaluronic serum. The texture is incredible and it dries really quickly, which makes it perfect for my morning skincare routine.

"I use it also after retinol in my evening skincare; it works wonders! The skin feels smooth to the touch, highly hydrated." Though one customer mentioned: "My skin still looks really dry with this serum. I have not seen any improvement and it causes any serum used on top of it to pill, even when I wait 30 minutes for it to dry."

Someone else shared: "Watery and doesn’t seem to be hydrating much at all."
