Results without the irritation...™
Most skin is sensitive, it is just to what degree. A simple change of washing powder can demonstrate this.
People of all ages and skin types can periodically suffer from sensitive skin, making them particularly susceptible to certain irritating cosmeceutical ingredients. In fact, those suffering from acne, rosacea or psoriasis usually have greater skin sensitivity, which can be exacerbated by some aggressive treatment products that they use.
Medik8 is a skin research company pioneering the cosmeceutical technology of providing products suitable for sensitive skin without compromising efficacy, so they may be used by everyone.
It is a myth that a product designed for sensitive skin would not be as effective just because it is less irritating.
It was previously incorrectly assumed that aggressive products causing significant inflammation gave the best results (the idea being that aggressive products provoke a healing response) but current opinion, based on the latest research, is that excessive inflammation can damage cells causing long term skin damage and perversely causing premature skin ageing.
The challenge for Medik8 is to make effective ingredients less aggressive without reducing potency. We do this in many ways; for example:
- using film-encapsulation,
- chirally correct actives,
- non-acidic derivatives
- patented telomere extenders
- avoiding unnecessary base actives
- pH balancing all formulae
- not using harsh detergents or soaps
- selecting carrier oils based on skin compatibility
