KEY INGREDIENTS
Circular Chevron Icon
  • Ingredient Icon 1
    Advanced UV Filters

    A complex of premium chemical sun filters, carefully selected for their high performance, skin-friendly benefits and stability (effectiveness) in sunlight.

  • Ingredient Icon 2
    Moringa Extract

    A powerful antioxidant and natural anti-pollution cleansing agent, moringa extract (pronounced 'mor-ING-er') works to draw out impurities (such as air pollution particles) that have accumulated on your skin throughout the day.

  • Ingredient Icon 3
    Carnosine

    Naturally present in the skin, this protective peptide blocks skin-damaging sugars from binding to collagen in the skin in a process called glycation. This helps to prevent the formation of fine lines and wrinkles while shielding the skin against infrared damage.

  • Ingredient Icon 4
    Theobroma Cacao (pronounced Thee-uh-broh-muh Ka-cow) Seed Extract

    Commonly known as cocoa seed extract, this powerful extract protects the skin from the damaging and ageing effects of blue light and free radicals.

  • Ingredient Icon 5
    Multi-Weight Hyaluronic Acid

    Unlike many other hyaluronic acid serums, Hydr8 B5 Intense uses multiple molecular weights of hyaluronic acid (small, medium and large), to distribute deep hydration evenly throughout the skin's many layers. This leaves the complexion visibly nourished and supple.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE FORMULA
Circular Chevron Icon

The ultimate SPF moisturiser for effortless wear & youthful-looking skin.

DANIEL ISAACS Chief Product Officer

At Medik8, we advocate daily sunscreen application as an essential part of maintaining a healthy, youthful-looking complexion. Why? Because it’s estimated that 80% of premature skin ageing is caused by the sun.* With its lightweight and invisible finish, Advanced Day Total Protect makes daily protection against UV rays and the wider environment effortless.

While premium sun filters deliver powerful protection against UV rays, the hero of Advanced Day Total Protect's environmental shield is moringa extract. Moringa extract is a breathable film-former ingredient, which forms an urban shield on the surface of the skin to deliver exceptional anti-pollution defence. It works by drawing impurities to itself, quenching free radicals before they can damage the skin.
