Technology: The Medik 8 ethos of results without irritation is ever present in beta Gel. Salicylic acid sloughs away dead surface skin, preventing congestion & clearing any debris in the form of excess sebum & grease. Known for its exfoliating action, salicylic acid is comparable to AHAs buts lacks the associated irritation, having a keratolytic activity which helps to open blocked sebaceous glands. Niacinamide supports both of these functions, aiding with exfoliation & lowering the rate of sebum production while still displaying an anti-inflammatory purpose. Niacinamide retains essential moisture, preventing the common problem of peeling & flaking with spot treatments. It also reduces the hyperpigmentation frequently experienced post-blemish, decreasing the quantity of melanin dispersed throughout the epidermis. This ensures the skin returns to normal quickly, with minimal evidence of a breakout. Fragrance-free. Paraben-free.
