Comments about essential cleansing solution:
I am a fan of dermalogica products in general. I use 2, sometimes 3 cleansers on a rotational basis.
this one is gentle and often I will use it when I shower in the morning after my morning work out.
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
Use it everyday and keeps skin clear.
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
My skin feels and looks clean after using the cleanser. No tight, ashen skin either. Love it!
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
Hands down a great cleanser!
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
I went to this from the cleansing gel as it dried my skin. The only problem is with this cleansing solution, it doesn't remove mascara easily thus giving me panda eyes after my shower. The original cleansing gel I used previously would remove all traces of mascara so it's a bit of a step down. Good if you have dry skin but not good if you have mascara on!
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
I love love love this cleanser! It is smooth, nourishing, and non-foaming. I noticed a change in my skin almost immediately. Within a few days I saw smoother, hydrated skin, and all around improved complexion. I will NEVER go back to store-bought cleansers.
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
I started out by trying the normal skin kit. Maybe it was the cleansing gel, maybe it was the PA winters or maybe my skin changed since I'm pregnant, but it dried me out terribly. So I switched to the dry skin kit and it was magical. Dry skin gone in 2-3 days. My skin is clear and smooth.
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
Love how it keeps my skin smooth & moist. Feels great when using
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
This cleanser has drastically improved my dry skin. I also use it with the intensive repair moisturizer. I recommend it.
Comments about essential cleansing solution:
Goes on thin doesn't feel rich almost feel like using an after shave with the thin water like texture you end up using more product to feel clean. My face looks better than ever and kicked my dry skins butt BUT THE PRICES ARE RIDICULOUS! Especially for the amount you get. Unfortunately I'll be switching to jack black skin care or others because it's too expensive to make last its sad
