MEDIK8’S8CORE PRINCIPLES<br />
Medik8 is a British company, which manufactures in the UK, yet complies with<br />
European standards. It is a brand rooted in science and nature and follows a combination<br />
of eight core principles.<br />
WHERE<br />
TO GET IT<br />

1. SIMPLE<br />
Medik8 is on a mission to demystify antiageing<br />
skincare. The company believes<br />
looking 40 when you’re 50 is as simple as<br />
following its anti-ageing philosophy ‘vitamin<br />
C plus sunscreen by day, vitamin A by night’.<br />
2. TAILORED<br />
While anti-ageing is at its core, Medik8 also<br />
provides solution specifi c skincare for a range<br />
of skin concerns. It understands customers<br />
often want their skincare to do more than one<br />
job for them. That’s why its products can help<br />
clear blemishes or pigmentation while also<br />
helping to prevent premature skin ageing.<br />
3. CLEAN<br />
Formulations are important and Medik8<br />
knows what to add in and what to keep out.<br />
No fads or fashions. No parabens, phthalates<br />
or sulphates, no microbeads. It may sound<br />
contradictory, but some ingredients get<br />
weaker when more concentrated so Medik8<br />
researchers work tirelessly to fi nd the sweet<br />
spot in every formulation - the concentration<br />
that delivers the best results with minimal<br />
irritation. Sometimes that means less is more.<br />
Medik8 uses clinically proven ingredients with<br />
original research behind them.<br />
4. ARTISAN<br />
Many active ingredients in professional<br />
skincare are incredibly unstable and diffi cult<br />
to work with. Medik8 promises to deliver<br />
professional strength products to the market as<br />
freshly as possible. Its serums are handmade in<br />
small batches by the master blender at its own<br />
UK-based ISO certifi ed labs. This helps ensure<br />
the products are still powerful and effective<br />
when they reach its clients.<br />
5. FREE THINKING<br />
Medik8 is an independent company and<br />
this allows it to be totally free in product<br />
development with fresh ideas and swift<br />
new product creation. Medik8 develops all<br />
its ideas and products in-house in its own<br />
state-of-the-art labs.<br />
6. PROFESSIONAL<br />
You’ll only fi nd Medik8 in professionally<br />
trained clinics, spas and specialist<br />
websites. This ensures clients will receive<br />
the attention, care and tailored skincare<br />
advice they deserve.<br />
7. TECHNOLOGY<br />
It is important that active ingredients can<br />
reach the correct location within the skin<br />
to provide results. Medik8 uses liposome<br />
and micro-emulsion technologies that<br />
work like protective ‘bubbles’ around<br />
the molecules to ensure ingredients can<br />
reach the right place; avoiding being<br />
stuck in the upper layers of the skin<br />
and causing irritation. The company<br />
develops and frequently patents its own<br />
original research, often collaborating with<br />
universities and academics.<br />
8. ETHICAL<br />
Of course, Medik8 products are 100%<br />
animal cruelty-free. The company is<br />
dedicated to minimising its impact on<br />
the environment whenever possible.<br />
The manufacturing processes are energy<br />
effi cient, without interfering with results.<br />
Medik8 uses recycled paper for all of its<br />
packaging and 40% recycled glass in its<br />
serum bottles. Even its buildings are run<br />
from 100% renewable energy sources.
