Medik8 Betagel™ 15Ml

CORRECT Acne Treatment Gel – Professional Strength Acne treatment betaGel™ is designed for use on individual blemishes or larger problem areas. For use during the day; with the option of nightly application to the entire face to control more severe acne. A fusion of spot-fighting actives include salicylic acid for its exfoliating ability; sloughing away dead surface skin and penetrating deep inside the pores to not only remove excess sebum; but to aid the prevention of future breakouts by neutralising bacteria. This action is further enhanced with the inclusion of niacinamide; which reduces sebum production as well as boasting powerful anti-inflammatory properties to alleviate the unwanted redness and discomfort associated with acne and spot breakouts. Azelaic acid possesses an effective decongesting function; also working in conjunction with niacinamide to soothe irritation. ACTIVE INGREDIENTS: Azelaic Acid - deeply penetrating anti-inflammatory and comedolytic properties. It is considered to be similar to hydroxy acids: helping to regulate cell turnover; whilst assisting with the reduction of comedones and congestion. Salicylic Acid - blocked pores are cleared as dead surface skin is sloughed away; preventing congested skin Niacinamide - also known as vitamin B3; exhibits anti-inflammatory action; whilst reducing redness and irritation.
