Directions

How To Use

Application: Twice daily (morning and evening), gently massage a small amount of cleanser (approximately the size of a five pence piece) onto wet face and neck using circular motions. Avoid the immediate eye area.

Frequency: Suitable for use both morning and evening. Those with sensitive skin may wish to introduce gradually, starting with once daily use.

Timing: Morning application: Use as the first step in your routine, before applying SkinCeuticals vitamin C serum and sunscreen. Evening application: Use to cleanse before applying SkinCeuticals corrective treatments or moisturiser.

Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat skin dry with a clean towel.

Expert Tips: For optimal results, pair with SkinCeuticals Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight to enhance and maintain the exfoliating benefits. Always follow morning use with a broad-spectrum sunscreen, as glycolic acid can increase sun sensitivity. If preparing for or maintaining results from aesthetic procedures such as chemical peels, speak to our experts for personalised application guidance.

FAQ

FAQ

Q: Can I use this cleanser if I have sensitive skin?
A: Whilst the SkinCeuticals Glycolic Renewal Cleanser is formulated with soothing ingredients like aloe and glycerin, the 8% glycolic acid concentration is relatively potent. If you have sensitive skin, we recommend introducing the product gradually—start with once-daily use in the evening, and allow your skin time to build tolerance. Speak to our experts for personalised guidance on incorporating this cleanser into your routine.

Q: Will this cleanser remove waterproof makeup?
A: Yes, this cleanser is formulated to effectively remove long-wear and waterproof makeup. However, for particularly heavy makeup application, you may wish to use a gentle makeup remover or micellar water first, then follow with the Glycolic Renewal Cleanser as your second cleanse for optimal exfoliation benefits.

Q: How long does it take to see results?
A: Many users report immediate improvements in skin smoothness and radiance after the first use due to the effective surface exfoliation. However, for more significant improvements in skin tone, clarity, and texture, consistent use over 4-8 weeks is recommended. Results will vary depending on individual skin concerns and overall skincare routine.

Q: Can I use this cleanser in the morning and evening?
A: Yes, the SkinCeuticals Glycolic Renewal Cleanser is formulated for twice-daily use. However, if you're new to glycolic acid or have sensitive skin, start with once-daily evening use and gradually increase to twice daily as your skin builds tolerance. Always follow morning use with a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Q: Is this suitable for use before or after chemical peels?
A: Yes, this cleanser is clinically proven to complement chemical peel treatments. It can be used to prepare the skin before professional procedures and to maintain results afterwards. However, always consult with your skincare professional or aesthetic practitioner for specific guidance based on your treatment protocol.

Product Overview - SkinCeuticals Glycolic Renewal Cleanser 150ml

The SkinCeuticals Glycolic Renewal Cleanser is a high-concentration, soft-foaming gel cleanser formulated with a dual-acid blend to deliver professional-grade exfoliation whilst gently removing impurities. This clinically advanced cleanser features a free acid value of 8% glycolic acid, combined with 1% phytic acid, to promote cellular turnover and reveal a visibly brighter, clearer complexion. Formulated at an optimal pH of 3.5, this exfoliating cleanser effectively dissolves dead skin cells, refines the appearance of pores, and removes oil, dirt, debris, and long-wear makeup without stripping the skin of essential moisture.

Enriched with soothing Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice and hydrating Glycerin, the formula ensures skin feels comfortable and refreshed after cleansing. The inclusion of Phytic Acid provides dual-action brightening effects, whilst Glycolic Acid derived from sugar cane stimulates the skin's natural exfoliation process. Clinically proven to complement and maintain chemical peel results, this professional cleanser is suitable for dry, normal, oily, and combination skin types seeking to address dullness, discolouration, and signs of ageing.

Key Benefits at a Glance

Immediate Benefits:
Long-Term Benefits:

With consistent twice-daily use, the SkinCeuticals Glycolic Renewal Cleanser promotes continuous cellular turnover, resulting in progressively brighter, more radiant skin. The dual-acid formulation works to visibly improve skin clarity, reduce the appearance of discolouration, and enhance overall skin tone evenness. Regular use helps maintain smoother skin texture whilst supporting the skin barrier with soothing botanical extracts.

This professional-grade cleanser is clinically proven to complement and maintain the results of chemical peels, making it an ideal choice for those undergoing aesthetic procedures or seeking to extend professional treatment benefits at home. Over time, the exfoliating action helps address signs of ageing, including fine lines and uneven texture, whilst promoting a healthy, luminous glow.

How will it feel on my Skin?

The SkinCeuticals Glycolic Renewal Cleanser has a lightweight, soft-foaming gel texture that transforms into a gentle lather upon contact with water. The cleanser glides smoothly across the skin, providing effective yet comfortable exfoliation. Despite its high concentration of active acids, the formula feels refreshing and non-stripping, leaving skin soft and balanced rather than tight or dry. You may experience a mild tingling sensation during initial use as your skin acclimates to the glycolic acid, which is normal and typically subsides with continued use. The cleanser rinses away cleanly without leaving any residue, preparing your skin perfectly for the next steps in your skincare routine.
