iS Clinical Pure Renewal Collection Review
The Verdict
Pure Renewal Collection's real value is structure, not a secret extra ingredient: it takes four of iS Clinical's established products — Cleansing Complex, Active Serum, Youth Complex and Eclipse SPF 50+ — and puts them in the right cleanse-treat-hydrate-protect order in one box. If you already own one or two of these individually, buying the pieces you're missing may work out more flexible than the full kit. But if you're starting an iS Clinical routine from scratch and want a sensible sequence without researching each step separately, this collection does that job well. It suits normal-to-dry, sun-exposed or mildly texturally uneven skin; anyone very reactive or already on a retinoid should ease in slowly given the Active Serum step. As with any acid-containing routine, pair it with consistent SPF, and if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, contact our team for advice before use.
iS Clinical Pure Renewal Collection | Anti-Aging Skincare Kit | 4-Step Regimen
£275.00
iS Clinical Pure Renewal Collection is a four-step anti-ageing kit that bundles Cleansing Complex, Active Serum, Youth Complex and Eclipse SPF 50+ into one regimen, built around Hyaluronic Acid, Copper Tripeptide-1, a Mixed Fruit Acid blend and mineral SPF actives. It suits anyone wanting a structured cleanse-treat-hydrate-protect routine from one brand, in the right order, rather than assembling and sequencing four separate products themselves.
What's in the kit
Pure Renewal Collection sits in iS Clinical's Kits category rather than being a single formula — it's four existing products from the brand's core range, packaged together as a full daily regimen:
- Cleansing Complex — the brand's 3-in-1 gel cleanser, toner and make-up remover, used morning and evening.
- Active Serum — iS Clinical's multi-acid resurfacing treatment, used a few evenings a week rather than daily.
- Youth Complex — a hydration-and-peptide treatment cream for daily use.
- Eclipse SPF 50+ — an all-mineral, broad-spectrum sunscreen for daytime protection.
Buying them as a collection decides the sequence for you, useful if you're new to the brand and don't want to work out which of iS Clinical's several cleansers, serums and sunscreens belong together.

The actives in each step
The hydrating step, Youth Complex, is built around Hyaluronic Acid for surface plumping alongside Copper Tripeptide-1, a growth-factor peptide used to help support the skin's own collagen-building processes. See our full Youth Complex review for concentrations and the full ingredient breakdown.
The treatment step, Active Serum, supplies the kit's Mixed Fruit Acids — a blend of glycolic and lactic acid plus salicylic acid — formulated to gently lift away dead skin cells and help improve the appearance of texture and uneven tone. Being an acid exfoliant, it's used a few evenings a week, not daily; see the Active Serum review for the full list.
Cleansing Complex opens the routine with botanical willow bark and sugarcane for gentle daily exfoliation on cleanse, while Eclipse SPF 50+ closes it with mineral Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide rather than chemical filters — see the Cleansing Complex and Eclipse SPF 50+ reviews for specifics.
Who it's for
- Anyone new to iS Clinical wanting a ready-made cleanse-treat-hydrate-protect sequence instead of researching four products individually
- Normal-to-dry or sun-exposed skin looking for hydration, mild resurfacing and daily SPF in one purchase
- Skin with early fine lines or uneven texture wanting a gentle acid step alongside a peptide moisturiser
Who should skip it
- Anyone already using a leave-on retinoid or a separate acid exfoliant most nights — adding Active Serum on top needs careful spacing, not daily stacking
- Very reactive, sensitised or post-procedure skin, where Cleansing Complex alone is a safer starting point than the full kit
- Anyone who already owns two or three of these products — buying only the missing piece is usually more useful than duplicating one you don't need
How to use
Cleanse morning and evening with Cleansing Complex. On evenings you're using an active, apply Active Serum to dry skin after cleansing and let it absorb before following with Youth Complex; on other evenings, skip straight to Youth Complex. In the morning, follow Cleansing Complex with Youth Complex, then finish with Eclipse SPF 50+ as the last step before makeup. Start Active Serum at two to three evenings a week and adjust based on how skin responds, rather than nightly from the outset.
Pairs well with
This kit already covers the core four steps, so most people won't need much beyond it. For a deeper weekly resurfacing treatment, Tri-Active Exfoliating Masque is an occasional add-on, not a daily step. For how the wider range fits together, see our iS Clinical brand guide.
Where it sits on price
As a four-product kit, Pure Renewal Collection sits at the higher end of iS Clinical's standard price band rather than single-product territory. iS Clinical isn't on Skintique's MAP-restricted brand list, but prices do move, so check the product page directly for the current figure rather than relying on a number here.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, please contact our team for advice before use, particularly given the Active Serum step's acid content.
FAQs
What's included in the iS Clinical Pure Renewal Collection?
Four full-size products: Cleansing Complex, Active Serum, Youth Complex and Eclipse SPF 50+, covering cleanse, treat, hydrate and protect in one kit.
What order do I use the four products in?
Cleansing Complex first, then Active Serum on the evenings you're using it (two to three times a week), followed by Youth Complex, with Eclipse SPF 50+ applied last each morning before makeup.
Is the Pure Renewal Collection safe to use during pregnancy?
If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, please contact our team for advice before use — the Active Serum step contains acid exfoliants worth discussing first.
