Reviews

Worst products ever

"Do not buy these items if you have or have had acne before. These products have given me the worst and most painful breakout I have ever had all over my cheeks and jaw. And no it’s not just “skin purging”, I’ve had purging before and it’s nothing like this. I’ve stopped using the products and my skin is still completely ruined a month later. Absolutely horrible experience."

— Molly (1/5)

Happy!

"I've actually never heard of this brand before but I decided to take a chance and ordered this kit. I am 55 years old and still get the occasional break out while, of course, dealing with the onset of fine lines and loss of collagen. So far so good! It's been about 3 weeks and I am quite pleased with the results so far and am considering ordering a few more products."

Really nice face wash. Absolutely

"Really nice face wash. Absolutely love the exfoliator. Serum is good at night. Under makeup it's kind of tacky."

Q&A

Where can I get the age bright spot fader that’s in this kit? Or do you have a replacement recommendation?
Hi there, thank you for your question. This item has been discontinued to make way for our newer innovations. I am so sorry about that! Check out our list of authorized retailers here to see if they may still have some in stock: https://www.dermalogica.com/authorized-retailers/authorized-retailers,default,pg.html Kind regards, Amber The Dermalogica Team
This clear ans brightening set from my last purchase broke out my skin very bad. I had to stop using it within days of startinf this kit. Could you please advise since i am a regular customer, could i have a credit since i will not be able to use this product? It also dried out my skin in the chin area very bad and made it flaky despite following the directions on the product labels.
Hi, Yolanda! I'm so sorry to hear about your negative experience. I have reached out to you via email to help make this right. Kind Regards, Beatriz.
I am interested in the clear and brighten kit. I have read that I will need to purchase a cleanser and moisturizer. Wondering what is recommended. I am 42 with oily skin. Thanks!
Hi Melissa, I recommend Special Cleansing Gel for an AM and PM cleanser, and then Active Moist for AM and PM moisturizer. Special Cleansing Gel is a mild cleanser that will deep clean without stripping your skin. You only need the size of a pea, and it's safe to use over the eyes. Active Moist is a lightweight moisturizer that is very hydrating without being greasy. It has been reformulated with Prebiotic Moisture Complex and a unique combination of plant extracts that help improve surface texture and combat surface dehydration. It has cucumber and ivy to soothe and hydrate the skin. Kind Regards, Jacquelyn
The instructions say to use this after cleansing. Is there a recommended cleanser to use prior to this kit?
Hi Jessica, Thank you for reaching out to Dermalogica. I recommend Special Cleansing Gel to use prior to the kit, also please be aware that you will also need a moisturizer. Special Cleansing Gel is a mild cleanser that will deep clean without stripping your skin. Kind Regards, Jacquelyn
I have a 17 year old daughter who breaks out alot and has oily skin. Will this kit help her? Or can you recommend something else. First time looking at dermalogica
Hello Lola, thank you for reaching out to Dermalogica. I would like to recommend the Clearly Matte Kit from our Clear Start line for your 17 year old daughter.
