✓ 2% Salicylic Acid Foaming Gel | ✓ Cleanses, Exfoliates and Tones in One | ✓ Mint, Eucalyptus and Tea Tree Freshness

IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL Clarifying Salicylic Gel Cleanser (previously CLEAR CELL Salicylic Gel Cleanser) is a fresh, foaming BHA cleanser that lathers away excess oil, shine and impurities. Formulated with 2% salicylic acid to gently exfoliate the dead skin that can clog pores, plus a refreshing blend of mint, eucalyptus and tea tree oils, it is the salicylic acid cleanser for oily and blemish-prone skin that wants a deep, invigorating clean twice a day.

Salicylic acid is a beta hydroxy acid that exfoliates and removes excess oil from the skin, and 2% is the concentration IMAGE uses across its CLEAR CELL salicylic formulas. The brand describes this as a 3-in-1 gel that cleanses, exfoliates and tones, gently removing make-up while keeping skin smooth and soft. Glycerin, a humectant, holds moisture so the foam does not strip, and a peptide and botanical complex with honey extract helps to soothe and maintain a balanced-looking complexion. IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL Clarifying Salicylic Gel Cleanser has been newly modernised to meet IMAGE's clean clinical skincare standard and is formulated without parabens, phthalates, mineral oils, artificial fragrances or synthetic dyes.

Newly modernised to IMAGE's clean clinical skincare standard

Best For

Oily and combination skin
Blemish-prone skin with clogged pores and congestion
Shiny T-zones and post-workout cleansing
Anyone who wants an exfoliating cleanser rather than a separate scrub

Choose IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL Clarifying Salicylic Gel Cleanser if your skin is oily or blemish-prone and you want your daily cleanse to do the exfoliating too; if you only need a gentle wash, IMAGE's ORMEDIC balancing facial cleanser is the softer option.

Becci, the aesthetics nurse behind Adore Your Skin, has spent more than two decades in specialist skincare and medical aesthetics, and the question oily-skinned clients ask her most is whether a salicylic wash is worth it or just marketing. Her honest answer is that this one is worth it: IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL Clarifying Salicylic Gel Cleanser puts a proper 2% dose in a foam that does not strip, which is why it is the first step she recommends for congested, shiny skin.

FAQS

Is IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL Clarifying Salicylic Gel Cleanser the same as the old CLEAR CELL Salicylic Gel Cleanser? +

Yes - IMAGE now lists it as the clarifying salicylic gel cleanser and describes the formula as newly modernised to meet its clean clinical skincare standard. It is the same 177ml tube with the same 2% salicylic acid and the same mint, eucalyptus and tea tree freshness.

Is IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL Clarifying Salicylic Gel Cleanser good for blemish-prone skin? +

Yes. IMAGE formulated it for oily and blemish-prone skin: 2% salicylic acid exfoliates the dead skin that can clog pores while the foam lifts away excess oil and shine, and it is the first step of the CLEAR CELL routine.

Can I use it twice a day? +

IMAGE directs it morning and evening, massaged in for 1 minute. If bothersome dryness, irritation or peeling occurs, drop to once a day or every other day, or alternate with ORMEDIC balancing facial cleanser.

Does it remove make-up? +

IMAGE says it gently removes make-up as part of its 3-in-1 cleanse, exfoliate and tone action. For heavy or long-wear make-up, a first cleanse with a balm or oil then this as the second cleanse works well.

Will it dry my skin out? +

It is designed not to: glycerin holds moisture and a peptide and botanical complex soothes. Salicylic acid can still feel drying on some skins at first, which is why IMAGE suggests reducing frequency or alternating with ORMEDIC if needed.

Does it tingle? +

A little - the mint, eucalyptus and tea tree oils give what IMAGE calls an invigorating cleansing experience. Keep it away from the eyes.

Can I use IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL Clarifying Salicylic Gel Cleanser with retinol? +

Yes. A rinse-off salicylic cleanser sits comfortably in a retinol routine; cleanse, pat dry and apply retinol at night as usual, and ease back on the cleanser if your skin feels tight.

What else is in the CLEAR CELL routine? +

Cleanser, then Salicylic Clarifying Tonic or Pads, Restoring Serum, Mattifying Moisturiser by day and Clarifying Repair Crème at night, with Clarifying Salicylic Blemish Gel on individual spots and the Clarifying Salicylic Masque once to three times a week.

Can I use IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL Clarifying Salicylic Gel Cleanser during pregnancy or while breastfeeding? +

This product contains salicylic acid, which IMAGE Skincare lists among the ingredients doctors typically advise avoiding during pregnancy or breastfeeding; the brand says it would not recommend its salicylic products at this time and asks customers to consult their physician first. Check with your midwife or GP before use - IMAGE points to its ORMEDIC collection as the range it describes as free of those ingredients.
