Medik8 Total Moisture Daily Cleansing Gel - 145ml

Medik8 Total Moisture Daily Cleansing Gel (hydrating cleansing gel) is for anyone who knows that tight, dry feeling after cleansing. Many cleansers remove makeup and sunscreen, but take your skin's comfort with them. This gel works differently: it lifts away makeup, sunscreen, excess oil and dead skin cells, then rinses clean to leave skin soft, fresh and comfortable, never stripped.

How it works

The difference is balance. Medik8's Moisture Magnets™ draw moisture into the skin while nourishing prebiotics support a healthy skin barrier, so your skin stays hydrated right up to your next cleanse. The Smart Surfactant System™ and mild glycolipids turn the gel into a soft, gentle foam that cleanses thoroughly without disturbing the skin. Glycerin and Saccharide Isomerate help hold water in the skin, Inulin feeds the skin flora and rice extract keeps the formula soft.

Texture and where it fits in your routine

A clear gel that whips into a soft, light foam with a little water and rinses away completely. Fragrance-free and vegan, so it suits reactive skin too. Use it morning and evening as your first step. Wearing heavy makeup or a lot of SPF? Double cleanse, or start with a balm or oil cleanser. Follow with Press & Glow, a vitamin C serum such as C-Tetra in the morning and Crystal Retinal at night, then Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream.

Frequently asked questions

Which step is this in the CSA routine?

Cleansing is always step one: in the morning before vitamin C and SPF, and at night before your vitamin A. Your actives then work on clean, comfortable skin.

Can I use it with Crystal Retinal?

Yes. The gel is mild and fragrance-free and does not disturb the skin, so it pairs well with building up a retinal routine. Cleanse first, let skin dry, then apply your retinal.

Is it suitable for sensitive or dry skin?

The formula is gentle enough for daily use on every skin type, including sensitive and dehydrated skin. If in doubt, start with one cleanse a day and build up.

Total Moisture Daily Cleansing Gel cleanses with the Smart Surfactant System™ and mild glycolipids, which turn the gel into a soft foam. Together they lift away makeup, sunscreen, excess oil and dead skin cells without disturbing the skin. At the same time, Medik8's Moisture Magnets™ draw moisture into the skin and nourishing prebiotics support a healthy skin barrier. Glycerin and Saccharide Isomerate help hold on to water, so skin stays hydrated right up to your next cleanse. Fragrance-free and vegan.

Use morning and evening as the first step in your routine. Apply a small amount to damp skin and massage in soft, circular movements over face and neck. Add a little water to work the gel into a gentle foam, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Pat dry and continue with your serum and moisturiser.

Straight after rinsing, skin feels clean, soft and comfortable, with no tight or dry after-feel. Makeup, SPF and excess oil are gone and the complexion looks fresh. With daily use skin stays better hydrated and the barrier feels calmer and more balanced.

For your most thorough cleanse, use it as the second step of an evening double cleanse, after an oil-based cleanser or balm. In the morning, one cleanse is enough. Massage onto damp skin, add water to build a soft foam, then rinse with lukewarm water.
