Medik8's new Total Moisture Daily Cleansing Gel, priced at £29 for 145ml, has quickly won over beauty fans with its gentle formula that removes makeup without irritating sensitive skin while maintaining hydration. The gel-based cleanser eliminates makeup, SPF, and everyday impurities while preserving the skin's natural moisture balance.
Hydration-Focused Formula
Formulated with hydration as its priority, the cleanser delivers a comprehensive cleanse without leaving a stripped or tight sensation. It also strengthens the skin barrier and enhances the appearance of uneven tone and texture with continued use. Suitable for all skin types, it can be applied morning and night by working two pumps into dampened skin, rinsing completely, and patting dry, as reported by Mirror.
Positive Customer Feedback
One fan shared: "Nice gel texture, slightly foamy, removes my longwear makeup effortlessly, even on its own or paired with the Balancing Oil. My favourite part is that it leaves my skin velvety soft, smooth and hydrated." Another reviewer noted: "As someone with sensitive skin, I am always a little wary of introducing new products into my routine; however, most Medik8 products have not caused any issues. It lathered easily and washed off quickly and thoroughly."
Mixed Reviews
However, not all feedback was glowing. One mixed review stated: "It's nice to apply, lathers well, but I found it a bit drying and not as good at removing mascara as my usual Medik-8 foaming cleanser." Another enthusiast remarked: "The bottle dispenses easily, and one squirt is enough for a light cleanse. It produces a light foam and doesn't leave a dry feeling after washing. Skin feels clean and doesn't irritate my eyes or sensitive skin."
Alternative Cleansers
Beyond Medik8, other mild cleansers include The Outset's Gentle Micellar Antioxidant Cleanser at £32 from Cult Beauty, which leaves skin soft without stripping. Emma Hardie's Vit C Brilliance Cleansing Balm, £29 at Marks & Spencer, uses vitamin C, cranberry seed oil, and vitamin E for luminous skin.
