About

Simplify your skincare with our multifunctional, transformative cleanser. Embodying the ultimate in multitasking skincare, KLEEN is designed for use in three ways: as a daily cleanser, mask treatment and ultra hydrating balm.

Starting as an oil balm, KLEEN quickly turns into a soothing milk once it comes into contact with water. This deeply nourishing, ultra smooth milk cleans, repairs and protects even the most sensitive skin to leave it soft and hydrated. It’s designed to deeply cleanse pores and protect the skin’s natural protective moisturising barrier, supporting your skin’s optimal pH balance without leaving an uncomfortable, oily residue or clogging pores.

KLEEN is specially formulated using our unique blend of non-comedogenic, nutrient dense oils and plant derived extracts. It purifies skin, removing dirt, pollution and makeup, without stripping it of its natural, essential oils.

When used as a cleanser, KLEEN glides on smoothly and washes off easily. Natural Saponins from New Zealand native Koumerahou, Castor Oil and Rosemary extract, it removes makeup and impurities effectively to leave your skin feeling fresh and clean.

As a biweekly treatment, KLEEN works gently to treat and soothe the skin. It’s abundant in anti-inflammatory active ingredients, including Kumerahou and Safflower Oil, which nourish and restore skin to its natural best. With antioxidants from Grape seed Oil, Green Tea Extract, Meadowfoam Oil, Elderberry Extract, the mask also combats and protects from harmful free radical damage.

For those needing an added boost of nourishment and hydration, KLEEN is also perfect for use as a moisturising balm. Offers long lasting hydration, soothes and reduces inflammation.

Welcome to true skincare innovation.

Benefits

Gently Cleanses: Rich in natural Saponins from the New Zealand native Kumerahou, Kleen is deeply cleansing while supporting your skin’s natural microbiome and optimal pH levels.

Unclogs Pores: Kleen removes dirt, impurities and makeup effectively. It’s gentle enough to use around the eye area and is powerful enough to even remove some waterproof mascaras.

Maintains Balance: Formulated with non-comedogenic oils, Kleen helps to restore and maintain the skin’s optimal pH and acidity levels, leaving it soft, supple and evenly toned.

Three in One: When used as a cleanser, mask treatment or moisturising balm, Kleen works to repair, nourish and soothe all skin types (including sensitive and skin prone to eczema or psoriasis).

Ingredients

Key Ingredients


Koumerahou: A New Zealand native, Koumerahou is a plant rich in saponins (nature’s deep cleanser). It offers deep but gentle cleansing which effectively cleans the skin without compromising its natural protective barrier.
Elderberry Extract: Elderberry Extract is an anti-ageing, anti-oxidising, anti-inflammatory, skin conditioning powerhouse which is perfect for inclusion in skincare designed for use on sensitive and mature skin.
New Zealand Green Tea Extract: Our Green Tea extract is derived from locally grown green tea. It is naturally rich in polyphenols, including catechins, and tannins which offer astringent (skin tightening) benefits while also working to prevent breakouts and keep skin hydrated.
Kawakawa Oil: This New Zealand native has been used for generations as a treatment for dry, irritated or damaged skin because it heals minor cuts and abrasions effectively. In skincare, Kawakawa oil is used because it contains Myristicin and Elemicin, which are anti-inflammatory compounds that simultaneously detoxify the skin while also nourishing and protecting it. Kawakawa oil also restores balance to the skin’s natural oil levels.
D’Scribe Six Active Botanical Blend: Our signature blend of six, low comedogenic, nourishing oils have been carefully selected to supercharge our formulas. These botanical oils are rich in omegas, vitamins and polyphenols which deeply cleanse skin, refine its texture, restore its balance and support optimal balance for long term skin resilience.

From our Founder...

"I wanted to create a cleanser that was a joy to use, multi-functional, didn't leave my skin feeling dry and didn’t cause breakouts on my hormonal acne prone skin. KLEEN ticks all of those boxes - and more. This innovative product is designed for use in three distinct ways: cleanser, mask or overnight balm, making it the ultimate skin solution for modern life. I use it every day in my skincare routine, and it’s my pleasure to share it with you as part of your daily regime too. "

- Lizzie McPike, Pharmacist and Cosmetic Formulator

Over-Cleansing and Over-Exfoliating

When using harsh cleansing and exfoliating products, you risk stripping away essential oils, natural lipids crucial for moisture retention, and the protective barrier. This can lead to irritation, dryness. Not to mention, they can disrupt your skin's pH balance and microbiome that help keep your skin healthy.

On top of that, they can potentially deplete water-soluble vitamins like vitamin C and B vitamins, along with essential minerals such as zinc and magnesium. These nutrients are critical for supporting collagen production and overall skin vitality.

It's important to strike a balance in your cleansing routine to avoid stripping away these essential components of healthy skin. Opting for gentle cleansers that respect the skin's natural balance, like our Kleen or Honne products, can help cleanse or exfoliate effectively without compromising the skin's integrity. These products are formulated to preserve moisture and support the skin's natural defences, ensuring your skin remains healthy, radiant, and well-nourished.

Skin Hydration

As we age, our skin naturally becomes less efficient at retaining moisture, leading to dryness, fine lines, and a loss of firmness.

Skin hydration is essential for maintaining a healthy and vibrant complexion. It refers to the skin's ability to retain moisture, which is crucial for its elasticity, smoothness, and overall function as a protective barrier.

At D'Scribe, we prioritize hydration in all our formulations. Our products are crafted to promote, maintain, and enhance skin hydration using potent botanical ingredients and advanced formulations. Whether it's our hydrating serum enriched with sea algae and natural humectants or our nourishing face oil packed with vitamins and omega fatty acids, each product is designed to replenish moisture, improve skin texture, and restore radiance.

By focusing on hydration, we aim to support skin health at every age, ensuring that your complexion remains resilient, supple, and beautifully hydrated throughout the years.

Love this leaves skin clean and soft

Wonderful, gentle cleanser - everything they say it is

So gentle, yet definitely cleansing. No tightness or irritation after using unlike most gentle cleansers' claims. Only drawback is it being in a pot means using the spatula to dispense and not getting enough or too much... Not sure how that could be resolved in a sustainable way... But a very small thing, still an excellent product!
