Dermalogica Clear Start Breakout Clearing Kit Review

The packaging was very simple and nice as it is my 15yr old son K, that trialled the regime, so it suited him, not too girly he said. K has quite breakout prone skin and had a lot of pimples at the start of the trial that were very inflamed. He felt the system was easy to use. The cleanser was felt nice to use, he applied it with his fingers and massaged it in then rinsed with warm facecloth, next the toner, he initially was putting it on a cotton pad to apply the toner, then discovered he could spray it straight on to his face. The day time treatment K found was too astringent and stung his face quite a lot. He used it for a couple of days but his skin became very red and had dry patches. So he stopped using this part of the system, he also found the smell off putting. K tried the night time treatment as well and again his skin stung and became red. Once he stopped using those two items and gave his skin a rest for a couple of days he started again using just the cleanser, toner and moisturiser. His skin settled and the amount of pimples decreased, there weren't as many dry patches as well as looking less red and angry. Overall we think it worked well, and there was a definite improvement in skin texture and breakouts. Not sure if we would continue to buy it as he has tried other products with similar results.

My daughter came to me today and said look Mum no acne and its all thanks to this Kit. She followed the instructions twice daily, which was a bit of a mission for her but she completed it and is so happy with the results. It cleared up her face and she wants me to get more of it. When I asked her to tell me about using the individual products she said it was easy to follow the instructions, did not need much of it, it smelt nice and she thought the packaging was cute. The toner she said made her face feel a bit oily by end of day and the day treatment moisturizer stung sometimes but the end result is I have a happy teenager with clear skin who is absolutely stoked with how this product has helped her get rid of her acne, thanks for letting us trial it, my girl is ecstatic and wanting more

I signed up to this trial for my partner who has always had problems with his skin. He suffers from red spots, oil, acne and blackheads. Over the last few weeks he has been using this product and found the results to vary. It did seem to reduce the redness of his skin after the first few days as the product is VERY drying on the skin so it seemed to take all the oil away. Look at his face each day I felt as though this product wasn't a miracle cure. His skin never completely cleared up and although it did get getting it was still quite obvious he had a lot of skin issues. When I asked him for his feedback he noted that the product did seem to work and do what it indicated on the package but as soon as you miss one day of using it his skin broke out again. In the long run to me it would see to be difficult for him especially (men can be a bit lacking in the upkeep of skin care) to maintain all of the steps required each day. Over all the product did seem to work but probably just not to the extend we were hoping for.

I was really excited about this doing this review! I loved the smaller sizes of the bottles (great travel size). The cleanser was gentle and very mild pleasant smelling and only a small amount was needed. Skin felt clean and refreshed. Toner was an awesome product, loved the spray application, two pumps provided ample coverage. Again gentle on the skin and very pleasant smelling. Next was the day and night treatments. And finally the matte moisturiser which was my favourite product in the kit. Keep skin looking clean and even with no shine which my son liked. The system is a great way to start the process of getting clean and clear skin. Love the travel size, means that it is not a huge outlay too start of with. Great for teens my son found his skin was clearer and more comfortable after the first week.

Thank you Beauty Review for saving my life - pimples be gone!

I was one of the lucky ones that were chosen to review this amazing breakout clearing kit!

My skin is not dry or oily, but I still seem to suffer from pimples and blackheads. Recently turning 20, I have been struggling to find a product that suits my skin type and that claims to do what it says!

I have been using this kit for the last couple of weeks and I feel like it has benefit my skin so much! Although after about week 1, my skin did feel really dry but I think that's just the process you go through. I still carried on following all the steps and I'm so glad I did because I started seeing results of my skin clearing up after week 2. Like all products, you have to give it time to work its magic! The pimples on my chin and forehead have cleared up so well, I also love that it reduces the redness. The combination of the products in this kit work so well, it's feels so gentle and light on your skin.

I'm happy that I've found a solution to my breakouts, it's also a confidence boost! I find it exciting washing my face as I know it works so well for my skin type and does exactly what it says.

If supermarket brands aren't working for you then I suggest you purchase this kit from your chemist - Life Pharmacies even have little samples! This kit will last you a while so it is well worth the money. It's the perfect little gift for a teenager!
