SkinCeuticals Soothing Cleanser

Product Overview

SkinCeuticals Soothing Cleanser is a low-foaming creamy-gel facial cleanser formulated to gently remove make-up, environmental debris and surface lipids without disrupting the stratum corneum barrier. The formulation combines allantoin (a barrier-supportive epithelial conditioner) with glycerin humectant action and orchid extract antioxidant support, making it suitable for daily use on patients with sensitive or reactive skin.

Within the SkinCeuticals Cleanse line, this product sits as the gentlest formulation in the range, between the Gentle Cream Cleanser and the Phyto Corrective products. It is typically dispensed in Singapore aesthetic clinics, dermatology practices, and post-laser recovery protocols where surfactant load must be minimised to maintain barrier integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the Soothing Cleanser differ from the SkinCeuticals Gentle Cream Cleanser?
A: Both formulations are designed for non-stripping cleansing, but the Soothing Cleanser uses a lower surfactant load with allantoin and orchid extract, prioritising sensitivity calming. The Gentle Cream Cleanser is more emollient-rich and better suited for very dry skin without active reactivity.

Q: Can the cleanser be used immediately after a laser or microneedling procedure?
A: Many aesthetic clinicians clear the Soothing Cleanser for use 24–48 hours post-procedure on intact skin. Always follow the specific homecare instructions issued by your treating physician.

Q: Is the formulation acceptable for patients on isotretinoin?
A: Yes. The fragrance-free, soap-free, low-surfactant formulation is widely recommended for patients on isotretinoin therapy, who frequently experience reduced skin hydration and increased mucocutaneous sensitivity.

Q: Is it safe to use during pregnancy?
A: The cleanser does not contain retinoids, hydroquinone, or salicylic acid. It is generally considered acceptable during pregnancy; consult your obstetrician for individualised advice.

Q: How can Singapore healthcare practices source authentic SkinCeuticals products?
