Key ingredients

What's inside, and why.

  • Bio-Placenta (5 Growth Factors + Folic Acid + Acetyl Glutamine) 5%
    01

    Bio-Placenta (5 Growth Factors + Folic Acid + Acetyl Glutamine) 5%

    Biomimetic peptides (sh-Oligopeptide-1, sh-Polypeptide-1, -2, -9, -11) inspired by placenta extract composition. Support cell communication, epidermal regeneration, and improved skin density. Contribute to visible reduction in wrinkles and improvement in firmness and resilience. Folic acid supports cellular repair and helps skin cope with environmental and UV-induced stress.

  • Repair Complex with ATP & Amino Acids 5%
    02

    Repair Complex with ATP & Amino Acids 5%

    Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) serves as a direct cellular energy source, supporting vital skin functions and recovery. Amino acids and peptides (Acetyl Glutamine, Acetyl Tyrosine, Proline, Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein) fuel cellular metabolism, support collagen synthesis, and improve overall skin quality and texture. Essential for accelerating post-peel healing and cellular renewal.

  • Retinol (Vitamin A) 0.1%
    03

    Retinol (Vitamin A) 0.1%

    A gentle yet powerful epidermal renewal stimulator that enhances cell turnover, reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, and improves skin smoothness and texture. At this concentration, provides effective anti-ageing action with exceptional tolerance for post-procedure skin. Supports barrier function alongside collagen synthesis.

  • Sodium Hyaluronate & Tocopherol (Vitamin E)
    04

    Sodium Hyaluronate & Tocopherol (Vitamin E)

    Sodium Hyaluronate delivers long-lasting hydration and plumping effects, critical for post-peel barrier restoration. Vitamin E (Tocopherol and Tocopheryl Acetate) provides potent antioxidant protection, supports lipid balance, and strengthens the skin barrier. Together they create a protective, hydrating foundation for repair.

  • High-Tech Silicone-Based Water-in-Oil Emulsion
    05

    High-Tech Silicone-Based Water-in-Oil Emulsion

    Advanced emulsion system that creates the signature velvety "ice cream" texture, melting effortlessly into the skin whilst forming a semi-occlusive protective veil that locks in moisture without suffocating the skin. Stabilises sensitive actives like Retinol and growth factors whilst ensuring a luxurious, non-sticky, non-greasy after-feel. Enhances both sensorial experience and performance.

Everything people usually ask me before choosing this product.

What makes Ice Cream Repair different from other post-peel recovery creams?

Ice Cream Repair is engineered as a global anti-ageing and post-peel recovery treatment, not just a basic repair cream. Most post-peel products provide only hydration and barrier support; this cream actively stimulates cellular renewal through five distinct growth factors (sh-Oligopeptide-1, sh-Polypeptide-1, -2, -9, -11), accelerates cellular energy through ATP, and supports collagen synthesis through amino acids—all whilst soothing inflammation. The folic acid ferment boosts cellular repair capacity and protects against UV-induced stress. Retinol at 0.1% provides gentle yet effective epidermal renewal without irritation. Clinically, it reduces redness and inflammation by 52% within 48 hours—faster and more dramatic than standard repair products. The signature velvety "ice cream" texture is engineered using advanced silicone-based water-in-oil emulsion technology that locks moisture whilst allowing skin respiration. This is a complete post-peel recovery and anti-ageing solution, not a simple moisturiser.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, absolutely. Ice Cream Repair is formulated with all skin types in mind, including sensitive and reactive skin. Despite containing Retinol and exfoliating-adjacent actives (growth factors stimulate turnover), the cream is exceptionally gentle because it's designed specifically for post-peel application—when skin is temporarily compromised and reactive. The soothing actives (folic acid, amino acids, Vitamin E) provide anti-inflammatory and barrier-strengthening support throughout. The advanced silicone-based emulsion creates a protective veil that calms reactive skin whilst allowing penetration of beneficial actives. Clinically, it reduces inflammation by 37% within 24 hours—evidence of its soothing power.

Can I use Ice Cream Repair immediately after a professional peel, or do I need to wait?

Apply immediately—ideally within 15–30 minutes after peel completion, once the skin has cooled slightly and any post-peel rinse protocol is complete. Do not wait hours after a peel to apply this cream; the critical post-peel window (first 24–48 hours) is when growth factors, ATP, and retinol delivery create maximum impact on cellular renewal and inflammation reduction. Protocol: Professional peel completion → Gentle water rinse (per professional instructions) → Post-Peel Glaciar Mask (10–20 minutes, optional cooling step) → Rinse mask → Apply Ice Cream Repair (primary recovery step) → Sleep. The cream should remain on the skin overnight to allow growth factors and ATP to penetrate fully and support cellular regeneration during sleep. For accelerated results, use nightly for the entire 7–14 day post-peel recovery window.

How do I use it?
  1. Cleanse thoroughly in the evening to remove makeup, sunscreen, pollution, and excess oil
  2. Pat skin dry with a clean towel
  3. If using a toner or essence, apply now to balance skin pH and enhance absorption
  4. Take a small amount of Ice Cream Repair and massage gently over face and neck using upward, circular motions
  5. Avoid the eye contour area
  6. Spend extra seconds on areas prone to wrinkles, dryness, or post-peel sensitivity
  7. Allow cream to fully absorb before going to bed
  8. Avoid applying additional products on top to ensure optimal repair and regeneration overnight
  9. Frequency: Use nightly for optimal post-peel recovery (7–14 days daily), then nightly as maintenance anti-ageing cream
  10. Morning after: Gentle cleanser → Toner → Lightweight serum (optional) → SPF 50+ (always)
When will I see results?

Results depend on whether you're using it post-peel or as maintenance anti-ageing care. Post-peel results: Redness and inflammation reduction occurs rapidly—clinically proven 37% reduction within 24 hours, 52% reduction within 48 hours. Skin texture and radiance improvements become visible within 3–7 days. Wrinkle and firmness improvements appear by day 7–14 post-peel. Maintenance anti-ageing (nightly use): Fine lines and wrinkles show noticeable improvement within 4–8 weeks of consistent nightly use. Firmness and elasticity improvements become visible around week 6–8, with continued gains through 12–16 weeks. Growth factors, ATP, and Retinol work cumulatively, so consistency is critical. Results depend entirely on nightly application without exception; missing applications resets progress. For optimal results, use every single evening year-round.

Can I use Ice Cream Repair during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding?

Ice Cream Repair is safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. The Retinol concentration is only 0.1%—far below systemic absorption thresholds, and topical retinol use results in minimal systemic exposure. Growth factors, ATP, amino acids, and folic acid ferment are all pregnancy-compatible ingredients. However, always consult your obstetrician before using any post-peel cream during pregnancy, as many peeling treatments themselves require caution or avoidance in the first trimester. If cleared for peeling by your healthcare provider, Ice Cream Repair is safe for post-peel recovery and nightly anti-ageing use. Patch-test first and discontinue if any unexpected reaction occurs.

Can I layer Ice Cream Repair with other Ekseption products?

Ice Cream Repair is designed as a final overnight step—it should be the last product applied before sleep. Layering strategy: Cleanser → Toner → Any serums (hydrating or active) → Ice Cream Repair (final step) → Sleep. Do not layer additional products on top of this cream; the semi-occlusive protective veil is designed to work uninterrupted overnight. If using other actives or serums, apply them before Ice Cream Repair, allowing 2–3 minutes for each to absorb. Post-peel protocol: Cleanser → Post-Peel Glaciar Mask (10–20 min, optional) → Rinse → Skin Relief Fluid (if significant redness) → Ice Cream Repair → Sleep. Compatible daytime: Monsoon Mist toner + serums + SPF 50+ in the morning. Do not combine on the same evening with other heavy overnight creams or occlusive products.

How long will one bottle last?

One 50ml bottle provides approximately 4–6 weeks of nightly use (a small amount covers face and neck effectively). If using only 4–5 nights weekly, expect 6–8 weeks per bottle. Storage is important for preserving growth factors and Retinol: Keep away from direct sunlight and heat. Store at room temperature (15–25°C). Do not refrigerate (cold temperatures can destabilise the silicone-based emulsion). Use within 6 months of opening to maintain stability and efficacy of active ingredients, particularly Retinol and growth factors.

Why invest in Ice Cream Repair when I can use a basic post-peel moisturiser?

A basic moisturiser provides only hydration and barrier protection; it does not actively stimulate cellular renewal, accelerate repair, boost cellular energy, or reduce inflammation. Ice Cream Repair is a therapeutic post-peel recovery tool and anti-ageing cream, not a simple moisturiser. The five growth factors actively stimulate cell communication and epidermal regeneration—accelerating visible healing by up to 52% compared to placebo. ATP provides direct cellular energy, supporting metabolic activity and repair mechanisms that basic moisturisers cannot. Retinol enhances epidermal turnover and collagen synthesis. Clinically, this cream delivers faster healing, less prolonged redness, reduced post-peel complications, and superior long-term anti-ageing results. One 50ml bottle costs less than a single professional peel, yet dramatically enhances peel outcomes, accelerates visible recovery, and provides nightly anti-ageing benefits for 4–6 weeks. For professional practices and serious skincare consumers, this is clinically essential post-peel care and long-term investment skincare.
