✓ 5.5% PHA + Enzyme Activator | ✓ 20% More Skin Glow in 4 Weeks | ✓ 30ml Travel Size

Medik8 Press & Glow Travel Size is Medik8's daily exfoliating PHA tonic in a 30ml bottle, previously sold as the Try Me size: the same gentle formula as the full 200ml, sized for a wash bag or a first trial. A 5.5% gluconolactone polyhydroxy acid works with a prickly pear enzyme activator to lift away dull surface cells for smoother texture, a more even-looking tone and an everyday glow, without the sting of a traditional acid toner.

Gluconolactone converts into gluconic acid to exfoliate and hydrate the skin surface at the same time, which is why Medik8 Press & Glow Travel Size is gentle enough for twice-daily use, even on sensitive skin. Acai adds antioxidant protection, aloe vera soothes, and the smoother surface helps your vitamin C and vitamin A serums absorb better. In Medik8's 4-week clinical study, skin glow improved by 20% in 4 weeks.*

Why This Beats a Standard Acid Toner

Many glycolic toners leave skin tight and pink. Medik8 Press & Glow Travel Size uses a hydrating PHA instead of a drying AHA, so it smooths and brightens while leaving the skin comfortable, and the 30ml bottle lets you see how your skin responds before committing to the 200ml.

Best For

Dull, rough or uneven-looking skin, sensitive complexions that cannot tolerate stronger acids, anyone using Crystal Retinal who wants a smoother base, and travellers who want their exfoliating step in hand luggage. For a gentle daily glow toner that travels, Medik8 Press & Glow Travel Size is the one to pack.

Becci has worked as a registered aesthetics nurse for more than two decades, and clients have always come to her for honest advice on which acids their skin can really handle. Press & Glow is the toner she suggests when someone wants brighter skin without irritation, and this travel size is the low-risk way to try it.

FAQS

Is Medik8 Press & Glow Travel Size the same as the Try Me size? +

Yes. Medik8 now calls its minis 'Travel Size'; older cartons and some stockists still say 'Try Me'. It is the same formula as the 200ml Press & Glow in a 30ml bottle.

Is Medik8 Press & Glow a good exfoliating toner for sensitive skin? +

It is one of Medik8's gentlest exfoliators. Gluconolactone is a PHA, a larger molecule than glycolic acid, so it works more gently at the surface, and 96% of sensitive skins in Medik8's consumer study agreed it was gentle with no stinging. Patch test first.

What is the difference between Press & Glow and Press & Clear? +

Press & Glow is a PHA tonic for glow and smoother texture on all skin types, including sensitive. Press & Clear is a BHA (salicylic acid) tonic designed to help keep pores clear on oily and blemish-prone skin.

Can I use Press & Glow with Crystal Retinal or retinol? +

Yes. Medik8 designed it to pair with vitamin A: apply Press & Glow after cleansing, let it absorb, then apply your retinal or retinol. If your skin feels sensitive, use them on alternate evenings.

Can I use Press & Glow twice a day? +

Yes. Unlike most acid toners it is gentle enough for morning and evening use. Start once a day and build up, and always wear sunscreen in the morning.

How long does the 30ml Press & Glow Travel Size last? +

Used once or twice daily, it gives roughly two to three weeks – enough to see whether your skin likes it before buying the 200ml.

How quickly will I see results from Press & Glow? +

Many people notice softer, smoother-feeling skin within the first week, and Medik8's clinical study recorded a 20% improvement in skin glow after 4 weeks.

Can I take Medik8 Press & Glow Travel Size in hand luggage? +

Yes. At 30ml it is well under the 100ml liquids limit for cabin bags.

Can I use Medik8 Press & Glow Travel Size during pregnancy or breastfeeding? +

Medik8 states that, as a cosmetics company, it cannot give medical advice, but that this product does not contain any ingredients it would recommend avoiding during pregnancy unless advised by your doctor. Please discuss the full ingredient list with your GP or midwife before use.
