Medik8 Balance Moisturiser & Glycolic Acid Activator – The 97% oil-free probiotic mattifier that rebalances your microbiome while delivering all-day shine control.
If your skin is oily yet somehow still gets dehydrated, or you're battling breakouts that leave behind redness and uneven texture, this two-part system tackles all of it. The Balance Moisturiser (50ml) works with your skin's natural mechanisms to support a healthy microbiome – the protective barrier of beneficial bacteria that regulates everything from hydration to sensitivity. When pollution, harsh cleansers, or stress throws that balance off, you get dryness, irritation, and blemishes. This lightweight formula restores that equilibrium.
The Glycolic Acid Activator (10ml) supercharges results by gently dissolving dead skin cells 2-3 times per week, creating a perfectly prepped canvas that allows the moisturiser to absorb more effectively. Together, they leave skin visibly refined, mattified, and clarified – the ideal base for makeup or just going bare-faced with confidence.
