Medik8 Blemish Control Pads

Medik8 Blemish control pads are a revolutionary idea to set your spots at bay! I have previously used, lotions, creams and serums to help with my breakouts but I always end up applying more than I need to and run out way sooner than I should have. Blemish control pads are so easy to use that I could even do it with my eyes closed, and the great thing about them is that each pad is damp enough to go over your face once and then onto your chest where I also experience breakouts.

 

Medik8 Blemish control pads are a Professional Strength all-in-one treatment pad that is designed for blemish-prone skin.

 

Each of these soft cotton pads contains 2% salicylic acid which unclogs the pores and aids the exfoliation of the skin, they also contain anti-inflammatory and hydrating properties which hydrate and condition the skin.

 

When I first started using this I found that my skin slowly started getting worse which is normal as you are purging out all of the impurities within your skin. After 2 weeks of using the product I found that I no longer started having the regular breakouts I once was and my skin was a lot less oily throughout the day.

 

The 60 Blemish pads are already pre-soaked and ready to use, just be careful when taking them out as I occasionally used two at the same time not realizing they were stuck together. The Pads also have 2 sides to them, one is smooth and the other is slightly more textured, I found that I used the textured side much more than the other.

 

I found that I got the best results with this product when I was using a new pad for the morning and at night.

 

Blemish control pads should be used straight after cleansing followed by the rest of your daily skincare routine. – Emily
