Medik8 Balance Moisturiser with Glycolic Acid Activator contains prebiotics and probiotics, which feed the good bacteria on the skin and counteract the bad bacteria. In this way, they contribute to a healthy microbiome, a balanced skin and a clear complexion. Cinnamon extract works together with the pre- and probiotics to fight bacteria that can cause blemishes and acne. It also balances sebum production. Beta-glucan improves the skin's ability to repair itself and leaves the skin feeling comfortable. Niacinamide has an anti-inflammatory effect, it quickly reduces redness and irritation and it regulates sebum production to prevent clogged pores. Glycolic acid exfoliates the upper layers of the skin, making the skin look brighter and clearer.
