White Balance™
Professional Strength

Apart from discolouration resulting from chronic sun exposure, it is hormonal changes from taking 'the' birth control pill, HRT and pregnancy that is the most common cause of hyperpigmentation, called melasma (or chloasma).

White Balance Serum is a concentrated topical serum, to help alleviate existing hyperpigmentation and prevent future skin discolouration using a complex of powerful professional-only actives that outperform Kojic Acid in clinical trials and without the dryness and irritation associated with bleaches. White Balance dramatically freshens & brightens your complexion every day.

White Balance contains three key complexes:

1. Cosmo-C250 (1-Methylhydantoine-2-imide), included in White Balance at 1.5% (maximum proven trial dosage), is an amino acid derivative occuring naturally in the body that has demonstrated a potent ability to inhibit tyrosinase activity in melanocytes leading to a reduction in skin hyperpigmentation. In trials, after 28 days of continued use, Cosmo-C250 used at a concentration of 0.1% outperformed Kojic Acid formulated at 1.0% meaning it is 10 times more effective.

2. Alpha-Arbutin, included in White Balance at 1.0% (maximum proven trial dosage), is a safe derivative of hydroquinone and more stable than both Arbutin and beta-Arbutin. Alpha Arbutin is a patented skin lightener which in trials outperforms any other lightening active availabale. A skin lightening study on 80 women of Chinese descent demonstrated that 1% Alpha Arbutin resulted in a faster and more pronounced skin lightening effect after one month, than the equivalent 1% of other skin lighteners.

3. Gigawhite, included in White Balance at 5% (maximum proven trial dosage), is a proprietory and patented blend of natural botanical brighteners from the Swiss Alps with proven brightening effects.

White Balance Serum has been formulated for direct application to the face. In the evening, after cleansing, use the integrated dropper to apply 3-4 drops of White Balance Serum directly to the face.

Alternatively, place a drop on your finger and then blend into the skin. White Balance Serum can be used all over the face or on specific areas of hyperpigmentation. Apply your hydrator as usual after every application.

If using White Balance Serum through the day, ensure that an SPF hydrator is applied after every application.

Medik8 is the British skin research company pioneering cosmeceutical technologies to make the most effective ingredients suitable for even the most sensitive skin, yet crucially without compromising efficacy. Medik8 cosmeceuticals may be used by everyone. Apart from being kinder to the skin, it turns out this new technology is kinder to the planet too. That’s why Medik8 is known as the ‘Green Cosmeceutical’ brand. Most skin is sensitive, it is just to what degree that distinguishes it from others. 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. 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-acid derivatives and patented anti-erythema technologies. Of course, using any effective strength actives, for example retinols and fruit acids, will cause some stinging to even the toughest skins, but Medik8 pharmacologists have minimised the degree of irritation and in some cases made it absent all together. No longer are the most powerful and effective ingredients beyond the reach of people who want the gain without the pain! And who doesn’t want that? Ask your skin care professional about what Medik8 can do for you.
