Reviews

Love this better than the oil based pre cleanse

"Love this better than the oil based pre cleanse"

— Kira (5/5)

Best Precleanse

"I have used all of the precleanses from Dermalogica and this one works the best. I am a big fan of Micellar water but hate scrubbing at my face with a cotton pad. The texture of this product is perfect. It melts the makeup off my face and leaves it ready to cleanse. Definitely a regular part of my routine. My skin is much glowier."

— Marilyn W. (5/5)

Great 1st step in double cleanse!

"Wonderful cleanser for double cleansing. Balm like texture instead of oil, perfect consistency to remove makeup, grime, and oils accumulated throughout the day. Smells good too!"

— Jessica F. (5/5)

Love

"This precleanse has been exactly what I needed to help gently remove makeup. I use as step one followed by the Special Cleansing Gel or the Ultra Calming Cleanser. My skin is very sensitive and prone to break outs, but I have seen positive results in adding this product to my routine."

— Kelly S. (5/5)

Is it safe to use with eyelash extensions? The other precleanse causes lash extensions to fall out
Hello Renee, Thank you for choosing Dermalogica. We truly care about the health and beauty of your lashes, and we want to provide the best care for them. When it comes to washing your lashes, we highly recommend using our special cleansing gel. It's specially formulated to be gentle and effective for this delicate area. Please be aware that both our Precleanses and our oil-to-foam cleanser are oil-based, which can lead to the removal of your lashes. We want to ensure that you maintain the lushness and beauty of your lashes, so we advise using our cleansing gel for this purpose. Your lashes will thank you for the extra care! Kind Regards, Melissa Virtual Professional Skin Therapist
