Product Overview - iS Clinical Cream Cleanser

A cream cleanser for skin that finds foaming washes leave it tight. Rather than surfactants doing all the work, iS Clinical build this one around emollients — Safflower Seed Oil (6%), Coconut Oil (2%), Squalane and Glycerin — so make-up and SPF lift away while the skin's own lipids largely stay put. It suits dry, normal, sensitive and combination skin, and is a common choice after in-clinic treatments. Unusually, it works with or without water.

Key Benefits at a Glance:

Immediate Benefits:

Removes make-up, SPF and the day's build-up without the tight, squeaky finish
Leaves skin comfortable enough that a heavy moisturiser often isn't needed straight after
Mild enough around the eyes to take eye make-up off in the same step
Can be wiped away with a cloth when rinsing isn't practical — travel, illness, immediately post-procedure
No fragrance in the formula, so nothing to sting reactive skin

Long-Term Benefits:

Cleansing is the step most likely to quietly undermine everything applied after it. A cleanser that strips lipids twice a day leaves the barrier playing catch-up, which shows up as tightness, flaking and reactivity to actives that were previously fine. Used consistently, a lipid-replenishing cleanser removes that daily setback — most people find their skin tolerates retinoids and acids more comfortably within a few weeks, simply because it isn't being stripped first.

How will it feel on my Skin?

Thick, white and genuinely creamy — closer to a light moisturiser than a wash. It doesn't foam, which catches people out at first: there's no lather to tell you it's working, so give it a slow minute over dry or damp skin. Rinsed off with lukewarm water it leaves no film. Wiped off with a flannel it leaves a very light emollient veil, which is what makes it comfortable for tight, post-treatment skin. Non-greasy either way, and it doesn't interfere with what goes on next.

Who is it Suitable For?

Dry, dehydrated, rough or flaking skin
Sensitive and reactive skin, including rosacea-prone
Skin recovering from peels, microneedling or laser, where anything foaming feels harsh
Anyone using retinoids or acids whose skin has become easily irritated
Normal and combination skin that simply prefers a cream texture
Less suited to: oily or congested skin that wants a deeper clean — the gel Cleansing Complex in the same range is the better fit. Also worth avoiding if you react to coconut derivatives, and note the formula contains dimethicone and PEG/Ceteareth emulsifiers if you prefer to avoid silicones.

Why choose iS Clinical Cream Cleanser?

Within the iS Clinical range this is the gentle option: Cleansing Complex is the gel that suits oilier, congested skin, and this is its counterpart for skin that's dry, sensitive or temporarily compromised. The no-water option is the genuinely unusual part — few cleansers at this level are formulated to be wiped away, which is why it turns up so often in post-treatment aftercare and in travel bags.

Directions

How To Use

Application: Use as the first step, morning and evening. Apply to dry or damp skin, then massage slowly for around a minute — it won't foam, so work by feel rather than lather. Rinse with lukewarm water, or wipe away with a soft cloth.

Frequency: Twice daily

Timing: Before serums and moisturiser

Layering: Follow with treatment serums, then moisturiser and SPF in the morning

Expert Tips: For a full face of make-up or long-wear SPF, take it through twice — the first pass lifts the make-up, the second cleans the skin. On tight or post-treatment skin, wiping rather than rinsing leaves a light emollient layer that many people find more comfortable.

FAQ

Can I use iS Clinical Cream Cleanser if I have rosacea or very sensitive skin?

Yes, this cleanser has been specifically formulated to be suitable for even the most sensitive and compromised skin conditions, including rosacea. Its gentle, non-irritating formula contains bionutrients and anti-inflammatory ingredients that help soothe reactive skin whilst cleansing effectively. Many users with rosacea report significant improvements when using this cleanser as part of their daily routine.

Do I need to use water with this cleanser, or can I wipe it off?

iS Clinical Cream Cleanser offers versatile application options. You can choose to rinse it off with lukewarm water for a refreshing cleanse, or simply wipe it away with a dry cloth or tissue. This flexibility makes it ideal for travel, post-procedure care, or situations where water access is limited. Both methods are equally effective.

Will this cleanser remove waterproof makeup and sunscreen?

Yes, the oil-based components in the formula, particularly safflower seed oil and coconut oil, work through emulsification to effectively dissolve and remove makeup, including eye makeup, and sunscreen residue. The cleanser is non-irritating to the eye area, making it safe for removing eye makeup. For particularly stubborn waterproof formulations, you may wish to perform a double cleanse or speak to our experts about incorporating a dedicated makeup remover.

How long does a 120ml tube typically last?

With twice-daily use, a 120ml tube typically lasts approximately 2-3 months, depending on the amount used per application. As only a small amount is needed to create an effective lather, the product is quite economical. Our experts recommend using approximately a grape-sized amount for face and neck coverage.

Can I use this cleanser as part of a professional treatment regime?

Absolutely. iS Clinical Cream Cleanser is professional-grade and is trusted by aesthetic practitioners worldwide. It is particularly recommended for post-procedure care and can be integrated into professionally guided iS Clinical skin regimes. We encourage you to speak to our skincare experts for personalised recommendations on how to incorporate this cleanser into your specific treatment protocol.
