The UK clinical brand introduces its proprietary CSA philosophy and Canadian product lineup across 147 Sephora Canada retail locations

TORONTO, July 23, 2026 /CNW/ — Medik8, the British premium clinical skincare brand focused on research-backed skin health, will officially expand its Canadian presence online (August 11th) and into all 147 Sephora locations nationwide starting August 14th

The brand’s Canadian product range will be available both in-store and online at Sephora.ca, supported by dedicated brand gondolas in 75 key locations to maximize visibility. This expansion represents a pivotal step in Medik8’s broader North American growth strategy, which includes a simultaneous retail rollout in the United States via Sephora US. By partnering with Sephora, Medik8 aims to provide Canada’s increasingly ingredient-savvy consumers with direct, widespread access to its clinically proven formulations.

“Sephora’s understanding of its skincare client and unmatched scale make it the ideal partner to bring our research-led approach to a broader audience. Our ambition is to establish Medik8 as one of Sephora’s top 10 skincare brands over the next three to five years.” said Simon Coble, Chief Executive Officer of Medik8

Alongside a curated selection of core products available to Canadian consumers, Medik8 is also introducing its trademarked CSA Philosophy: Vitamin C and sunscreen by day, and Vitamin A (also known as Retinal) by night. This straightforward, evidence-based routine is designed to address up to 90% of visible skin aging concerns. A central focus of the Canadian launch is the brand’s primary innovation, Crystal Retinal, mirroring its position as the No. 1 Retinal Serum Worldwide*. This flagship serum utilizes retinaldehyde, a next-generation Vitamin A derivative clinically proven to act up to 11 times faster than standard retinol, delivering targeted anti-aging benefits with a significantly lower risk of irritation than traditional clinical retinoids.

“As interest in clinical skincare continues to grow, Canadians are actively seeking brands that combine scientific credibility with proven results – Medik8 delivers on both,” said Marisa Caruso, VP, Merchandising, Sephora Canada. “This launch reflects Sephora Canada’s commitment to curating an assortment that empowers our clients to make increasingly informed choices for their long-term skin health. The brand is a welcome addition within our clinical offering, delivering advanced skincare products and further solidifying Sephora’s position as the destination for premium, results-oriented solutions across Canada.”
