Transformative oil to foam cleanser removes make-up, sunscreen, and debris while cleansing skin in one step for ultra-clean, healthy-looking skin.
This dual make-up remover and cleanser starts as a golden gel-oil infused with Sea Buckthorn Oil; massage into skin to melt away layers of make-up, sebum (oil), and sunscreen. A splash of water transforms the gel-oil into a rich cloud-like foam to wash away debris and any remaining impurities. This foaming cleanser with a plant-derived prebiotic leaves skin feeling instantly soft and smooth.
Slightly dampen face. Massage gel-oil over face and eyes to dissolve surface oil and dirt. Wet hands and continue massaging to create a foam to wash away make-up, sebum, and sunscreen. Rinse with warm water.

"At 80 I have good skin and I have bought and rejected many face washes. This is just right for me. After application it becomes a lovely foam that removes my daily SPF foundation, and toxic absorption. My skin is left dewy and clean after this simple procedure. I don’t know why some reviewers complain about the lid opening, I have had no issues with mine. I highly recommend this cleanser, especially if you like a foamy wash."
"Happy I tried this cleanser! Been using the Gentle Cleanser for years. This newer version removes my oily tinted sun protector much faster. My white towels no longer look orange after I dry my face. And yes, my face feels fresh and clean after. It does not dry out my 78 year skin."
"I absolutely love this cleanser! It feels luxurious as it glides on my face then turns into a creamy lather. And when I rinse it off, my skin feels so soft and smooth."
"I’ve bought numerous facial soaps promising, but failing to produce a foamy texture and this is the winner. I’m 80 with good skin and prefer cleansing with soap. One applies the gel to damp skin and voila! Foam to cleanse. Only one application provides a gentle, non-drying clean. I love it!"
"This is my favorite facewash ever! I love that it is able to wash away sunscreen, makeup, and daily dirt & impurities in just one step! Also, the size selection is so generous, one regular bottle lasts me over a year of daily washing."
"good for summer after sweating and sun tan lotion. leaves my skin soft and balanced."
"Dermalogica's Oil to foam cleanser is great! I've been using it for a very long time now. My esthetician is the one who referred me to it and I've been using it ever since. Wonderful for keeping my skin in good condition."
"Gooood. I have been using this product for over a year and it changed the quality and look of my skin"
"I love it if I’m in a rush and can’t precleanse and then use my special cleansing gel"
"The gentle oil to foam formula cleanses the skin beautifully leaving it refreshed. Leaves no traces of sunscreen or makeup, but it doesn't dry the skin out."
