Blemishes are most often caused by excessive sebum production, blocked pores, impurities and external aggressors. Acne-prone skin is usually the most affected, but all skin types can experience them – and they can be difficult to get rid of.
Luckily, Medik8 has a great range of effective treatments, including the Blemish SOS. Priced at £25, the rapid-action gel is formulated with maximum strength salicylic acid to quickly diminish the look of blemishes.
It also helps to calm visible redness and leave the complexion looking clear and healthy. Fast-drying and invisible on the skin, it can be used at home or on-the-go, on clean skin as well as under or over your makeup.

A satisfied shopper wrote: “I’ve been using Blemish SOS for a while now, and this is honestly one of the best skincare products I’ve ever tried. When applied early, it reduces the appearance of blemishes, preventing them from becoming large or causing further issues.”

“Love this, quickly helps clear the blemish, without drying the healthy skin around it,” another added, while a third penned: “I’ve recently started suffering from hormonal acne after coming off the pill and this has been a life saver to get rid of spots. Would definitely recommend.”
However, some customers were left unimpressed with the results: “It dried my spots up but not sure they went any quicker. Feels good and smells nice.”
