Medex Cleansing Gel - 100ml

The Medex Cleansing Gel is a smart, skin-friendly alternative to regular soap — formulated to cleanse thoroughly without irritating or disrupting the skin's natural balance. Research from the University of Groningen shows that 41.1% of irritation complaints about cosmetics are caused by regular soap, and 16.1% by regular shampoo. This cleansing gel offers a significantly gentler yet more intensive cleanse, making it especially well-suited to men's skin, which naturally produces more sebum and is therefore more prone to irritation and breakouts. At the heart of this formula are Capryloyl Glycine and Undecylenoyl Glycine — two powerful sebum-regulating actives that work together to reduce excess oil production and target acne-causing micro-organisms. They are supported by Decyl Glucoside, a mild plant-based cleansing agent that respects the skin's natural barrier, and Sodium Lauroyl Oat Aminoacids, a plant-derived foam booster that delivers a rich, creamy lather while keeping the skin protected throughout the cleansing process. This cleansing gel is suitable for all skin types and provides a thorough, balanced cleanse every day. Make the switch from soap and give your skin the gentle care it deserves.

The efficacy of this cleansing gel relies on the synergy between Capryloyl Glycine and Undecylenoyl Glycine. Both components inhibit the enzyme 5α-reductase, which plays a key role in excessive sebum production. By reducing sebum levels, they create a less favourable environment for odour-causing micro-organisms. Decyl Glucoside, a plant-based surfactant, cleanses gently while preserving the skin's natural barrier. Sodium Lauroyl Oat Aminoacids forms a protective film during cleansing, minimising moisture loss and irritation. The result: a thoroughly cleansed skin that remains balanced – without the dryness or irritation that conventional soap can cause.

Apply a small amount of cleansing gel to damp skin. Gently massage in circular motions across your face and neck. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat your skin dry. Use morning and/or evening as part of your daily skincare routine. No special tools are needed — just your fingertips.

Capryloyl Glycine: An antibacterial and sebum-regulating component that reduces sebum production and eliminates micro-organisms, making it beneficial for acne. It works by inhibiting the activity of 5α-reductase, an enzyme involved in acne formation, and kills Propioni-Bacterium Acnes, a bacteria that contributes to acne.

Decyl Glucoside: A mild, plant-based cleansing agent that respects the skin's natural balance, offering excellent skin tolerance.

Sodium Lauroyl Oat Aminoacids: A gentle foam-forming agent from plant origin that helps create a rich, creamy foam while protecting the skin during cleansing.

Undecylenoyl Glycine: Similar to Capryloyl Glycine, it works in conjunction with it to reduce sebum production and eliminate acne-causing bacteria. It also has applications in treating dandruff on the scalp.
