Skincare company iS Clinical has created a skincare regimen specifically designed for cancer patients – the iS Cancer Care programme.
The company explains that during and after cancer treatment, the skin barrier can be compromised, causing dry, inflamed or sensitive skin. As a result, skincare regimens need to be tweaked to strengthen the skin barrier while not damaging the skin.
The iS Cancer Care programme contains the iS Clinical Cream Cleanser, iS Clinical Hydra-Cool Serum, iS Clinical Poly-Vit Serum, iS Clinical Extreme Protect SPF40, The Perfect Peel Hyaluronic Acid Serum and Glutaceuticals – 5-A-Day.
Nurse practitioner Marea Brennan Thorns commented, “As a two-time cancer survivor myself, I have firsthand experience with the intense challenges of chemotherapy, including its significant impact on the skin. The use of barrier building and soothing skin care throughout treatment, in my opinion, is really important both physically and mentally.”
