What It Is

Deep-cleansing oil melts impurities and make-up from skin. Achieve ultra clean and healthy-looking skin with the Double Cleanse regimen that begins with PreCleanse. Thoroughly melt away layers of excess sebum (oil), sunscreen, waterproof make-up, environmental pollutants and residual products that build up on skin throughout the day with skin-fortifying Borage Seed, Kukui and Apricot oils. Add water to transform this hydrophilic (water-loving) formula into a milky emulsion that easily rinses debris from the skin’s surface, allowing your prescribed Dermalogica Cleanser to penetrate even further for professional cleansing results. Formulated with conditioning Rice Bran and Vitamin E oils, this gentle blend offers a deep cleansing ideal even for oily skin conditions.

What It Does

• Dissolves oil-based make-up, sebum, sunscreens and environmental pollutants from skin's surface, enabling skin to be thoroughly cleansed.

• Removes oils without compromising skin's natural barrier lipids or clogging pores.

• Fortified with conditioning essential fatty acids to help smooth, calm and nourish skin.

• Delivers a level of cleansing traditionally experienced in the professional treatment room.

• A great make-up remover: even for mascara and long-wearing lipstick!

• Enables the prescribed Dermalogica Cleanser to work more efficiently.

What Else You Need to Know

For a professional level of clean, follow with your prescribed Dermalogica Cleanser.

Using dry hands, massage over dry face to dissolve surface oil and dirt. Concentrate on areas of congestion or stubborn debris. Wet hands and continue massaging to create a light, milky emulsion. Rinse with lukewarm water. Follow with recommended Dermalogica Cleanser for professional cleansing results.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from PreCleanse This is the first Dermalogic product I haven’t loved 100%. The products is very runny so I wasted a little the first time I used it. But after I knew how running it is I adjusted how I used it after that. It has a very pleasant sent and did a great job removing my makeup.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Love the experience, could be better removing masc I have to say that I love this product so much! The reason i gave 4 stars is because it could do a better job removing mascara. However I love the experience this product provides on my cleansing routine . Skin feels great and love the smell compared to other cleansers. I also prefer this than the cleansing balm. In my opinion.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Melts My Make Up Off Use this before you wash your face- and your make up and any oil debris will be completely removed - even water-proof mascara. I tried the preclease balm and it is good, but with my combination skin and stubborn make up, this oil swirls all around and lifts up all the gross to be washed away. I am a fan of this for life.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth the price paid! Yes, this product IS higher priced than most makeup removers/ precleanses BUTTTT it’s also 1000% better than the rest! It has a very fresh orange smell when applying it to your face. The best part is you don’t have to scrub for hours trying to get makeup off ESPECIALLY the mascara. It doesn’t burn your eyes and leave your face feeling amazing. No harsh mascara stuck on those eyelashes anymore. I will not buy anything else! Pay the price, you won’t regret it!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Favorite product! By far best product for removing makeup and buildup. I was nervous at first since I have combination oily skin and tend to break out easily but it doesn’t affect either! It is amazing and leaves my skin super soft. It’s a MUST HAVE !

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This stuff is the best! This stuff is amazing to do before washing your face! It literally gets all the makeup and dirt loose for removal. The face wash wouldn’t work nearly as well without this precleanse. My go-to product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for double cleansing and Makeup Removal I follow the Dermalogica double cleanse method and this stuff works. It's basically a pre conditioner for your skin. Removes surface dirt and makeup really easily. Leaves the skin super soft and ready for your cleanser to actually do its job.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A Must Have! I believe everyone should have precleanse in their skin care regimen. It is safe for my sensitive skin, it binds and cleanses away oil, makeup, mascara, and environmental debris, very gently and effectively!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Will never go back to single cleanse! Precleanse (step 1 of a double cleanse) removes all my makeup, even waterproof and long wear! I love that it also lets my cleanser do it’s job directly on my skin rather than cut through the days buildup. I use it everyday, 2x a day!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cleaner skin I love this product. Send counter intuitive to use oill to cleanse skin, but this works like a magnet to draw out excess oil before I cleanse and my skin is cleaner and softer with Precleanse!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My skin loves it! I tried a small 1oz sample of the Dermalogica Precleanse and Special Cleansing Gel set. I have to say, it far surpassed my expectations. The 1oz bottles lasted me roughly a month and a half—being used daily. What I love about the Precleanse is that it gently breaks up my makeup, making it easier to cleanse my face—it especially works well on mascara. I double cleanse each night, starting with the Precleanse and ending with the Special Cleansinh Gel. My face has never felt, nor looked better. I suggest it to anyone I come in contact with. I have now purchased a larger bottle of each to continue using in my daily skincare regime.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing! Perfect start to a skin care routine, it gets all the junk and makeup on your face, even before you do your face wash. I love this stuff!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Must have! I didn’t realize how much I depended on this as a part of my face washing ritual until I ran out of it! It makes taking off your make up so much easier. The best part is that once you apply your facewash you know its able to penetrate into your skin and do its job best!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wow! I have a hard time with makeup removal. Normally I have to scrub with a makeup remover and cleanser, I still have smeared mascara under my eyes and alot of eye and skin irritation. Not only did this product remove ALL the makeup, it was gentle and left my skin feeling soft and preped for my skin care ritual.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Double cleanse I've been using dermalogica for about 5 years now. I love every product and it's great that they have so many products to choose from to customize for your perfect skincare regimen. The precleanse is awesome, the smell, the feel, and your end result.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The best Pre Cleanse ever!! I don't know how I would only do one cleanse ever. This product has changed my life, it's gentle, smells great, and it does not leave an oily residue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Magic In A Bottle This product line is awesome but the pre cleanse is my favorite I have very sensitive skin and this stuff is wonderful. Its also a great makeup remover (even waterproof) when used with the gel cleanser followed by multi-vitamin toner and the moisturizer of your choice its simply magic in a bottle. You’ll thank me later.
