Dermalogica Clear Start Breakout Clearing Kit Review

trialed this product on my son who has quite bad acne and blemishes...used as it stated but i dont think it worked that well on my sons skin...cleared it a bit but didnt fully get rid of the acne...maybe using it over a longer period might help...my son also has very sensitive skin so this could be why it didnt work as well...will say tho it did make his skin alot softer... :) and not so oily

My 15 year old daughter has quite bad acne on her face and upper shoulders so when I saw she could review the Dermalogica Clear Start Breakout products I jumped at the chance. She also wanted to get rid of the spots and have a clear complexion as it can affect your confidence.

She found the foaming wash easy to apply morning and night, but surprised it was a thick gel and not foaming up on the face like she expected. The toner spray was easy to apply, but went up the nose and had an antiseptic smell.

The daytime treatment was very liquid and at first got all over her hair and clothes as it poured out. Could be thicker consistency. Felt very gentle on the skin. The overnight treatment was thicker and so much easier to apply. The oil clearing had a SPF15 which is great for protecting the skin especially in the summer months & was easy to apply.

Her skin got a little better in the beginning with the spots fading and her face becoming clearer for a week then it seemed to just stay the same. We used this treatment for 3 weeks' and the first week was definitely the best and most noticeable. Her skin felt refreshed after applying. She wants to keep on with the treatment as it has made a little difference & is hopeful it will keep improving.

I am past the "normal" age of using this range, however I am going through a patch of imbalanced hormones and my skin breaks out!! I purchased this to try and see if it would help and it really did clear my skin as its aptly named.

I also have sensitive skin and my skin didn't have any reaction which it normally would to good active products.

I definitely recommend giving this a go not as a long term thing for someone over the recommended age but a great treatment course to help when required!

SO, I've been trying out Dermalogica Clear Start Breakout Clearing Kit for a couple of weeks now, and my first thought: IMPRESSIVE! It's my most stressful time of year and like any other gal I'm prone to getting mad breakouts when I'm stressed. Using this product as instructed (although a serious pain in the ass if you aren't used to a decent skin care regime!) delivered the good! My skin is clearer, and healthier than EVER! I especially love the toner product - it really did help my skin stop getting oily, which was amazing (: ....on a side note though...the day treatment cream burned something epic when putting it on (on the first day I thought I was reacting to it!) BUT was instantly soothed by the mate moisturizer (not as matte as I had hoped but still really good for combating oily skin!). I still would totally recommend this to my friends, as my this product has done what every other face wash/breakout kit I've ever tried has failed to do - all the while making my skin feel healthy, and not stripped back by something purely synthetic and chemical!

P.s. Another positive is the size - they're still going AND great to travel with.

I decided to do the Clear start dermalogica trial on my teenage sons, my younger son had started getting pimples!! He wasn't too happy. The first day we tried it he said it made his skin tingly (this may have been the salicylic acid) he was quite impressed with the skin cleaning ritual that we were doing. The next day the three little pimples had vanished. We used the foaming wash the toner then the overnight treatment. I think it was the toner that was the most difficult as it stung his eyes a bit (they were closed) the Matt moisturiser was good for removing oil on the nose and forehead also has sun protection. I love how they have natural and botanical extracts. I used it on my skin as well and its great to clean excess oils that clog pores and it really purifies the skin. Its a great product!!

The face wash is great, feels good while using and afterwards, dosnt dry your face like alot of others and was above my expectations as I usually use a scrub to lift dirt etc. The matte moisturizer was a little light and found I had to reapply a second time. The day cream is nice to apply and good consistency. Unfortunately I had a reaction to the night Cream and it had a slight stinging feeling to my face (I've used dermelogica before and have had 1 other reaction to a different product, all other products have been fine) the night Cream was thick in texture but I quickly washed due to the reaction. I would definitely buy the face wash again but would look at a different moisturizer specifically for dry skin. Overall it worked and my skin feels clean and fresh
