Dermalogica PreCleanse is a lightweight cleansing oil that helps remove makeup and debris from the skin’s surface. Oily skin types, don’t be afraid! These oils are not comedogenic, which means they won’t cause breakouts. They actually liquefy oil-based debris on the face, which helps clear up pores and keep your skin fresh.
I must admit, I was a little hesitant to try PreCleanse. Why would I want to add an extra step to my cleansing routine? After a few uses, I quickly learned the answer…because it makes my skin look fabulous and feel cleaner than ever before! My makeup seemed to melt off – even stubborn mascara. The extra 2 minutes it takes to use PreCleanse are probably 2 of the most worth-while minutes in my skin care routine.
What is PreCleanse? It is a product used before your regular cleanser, and it works for all skin types. One word of advice: you MUST follow with a cleanser! PreCleanse is not a substitute for the cleansing step. Most skin therapists do a professional double cleanse when you get a facial, so this gives you that professional result at home. It dissolves makeup, oil, sunscreen and all of the other dirt and grime our skin faces daily. PreCleanse also conditions your skin…mine feels so soft and calm from regular use.
PreCleanse contains Kukui Nut, which is a rich sources of vitamins A, C and E, plus omega-3 fatty acids to help strengthen the outermost layer of skin. This ingredient is also used to treat dry skin, acne AND irritation! The Rice Bran in this product is rich in antioxidants and phytosterols, which helps hinder oxidative damage and repair the skin. Ingredients like Apricot Kernal, Oilve and Borage Seed Oils help to soften and soothe the skin.
To use PreCleanse, dispense about a nickel-sized amount into dry hands. Massage it all over the face and neck. Don’t forget to gently rub it over the eyes…you won’t believe how well waterproof mascara will come off! Be sure to zone-in on problem spots with congestion or dryness. Once PreCleanse has been applied over the skin, wet your hands and continue the massage motion. The product will become milky in consistency. Remove completely with warm water and a wash cloth, then follow with your favorite cleanser.
Am I happy that I took the advice to try Dermalogica PreCleanse? Absolutely. I won’t wash my face without it, and absolutely love the feel of my skin. After 1 week of use, my complexion looked less oily, felt softer, and had an overall glow that just wasn’t there before. Many salons that sell Dermalogica offer free samples…I recommend giving this one a try as soon as possible! Enjoy.
