Cleanser I didn’t know I needed
Came as part of a promo pack, was sceptical in thinking I would actually use it but now Wouldn’t do without it. Pleasant smelling, doesn’t leave skin dry.okay
this pre cleanse gets all the makeup off very nicely and does the job. but it is very messy to use.Like but don’t love
verified purchaserI love oil cleansers as a first cleanse. I find this one effective at removing makeup/spf and non-drying. The things I don’t like as much is the strong fragrance which I think irritates my (usually non-sensitive) skin and it’s a very runny oil which I find slightly messier to work with. I’ll probably use it up but won’t repurchase.super effective!
I always like to double cleanse since that ensures no makeup residue is left over that may cause my skin to break out. I find that after just using this cleansing oil, most if not all of the makeup is already gone even before I go in with my normal cleanser. What I find interesting about this is that it foams up a bit when water is rubbed into it and maybe that is why it’s so easy to rinse off com...Read MoreGets off makeup but stings the eyes!
verified purchaserThis precleanse works really well to get off sunscreen and makeup but I found it stings my eyes. I can barely see for 30 minutes afterwards! Don’t use for eye makeup.great product
great product and helps remove makeup so easier . Very gentle on the skin and the pre-cleanse facial wipes are also the best!amazing
oil base is great for removing heavy makeup and clear the pores before getting a deeper cleanse, really helps unvlog poresGreat gentle cleanse
I love this product.
So gentle on skin but gives sufficient cleanse.
I don't use as pre cleanse , I use as cleanser when not needing deep clean. Love the oil base.
So good for skin.Amazing
I have using 3 bottlez this.
Totally loved it. Doesn't clog my pore and super clean.
1 minus star for the priceDoes the job
verified purchaserI have combo/oily skin with a few breakouts. I was skeptical about using a cleansing oil but thought I would give it a go to ensure my make up was fully removed at the end of the day. I still remove my make up with wipes before using this but this product really helps to ensure the make up is COMPLETELY gone from your skin. I love how it turns milky once water is applied. This was my third purchas...Read More2 is better than 1
I have never double cleansed before I bought this product now I won’t cleanse any other way! Takes makeup beautifully making it much easier to get a deeper clean with the dermalogica special cleansing gel! Great product I recommend trying!!Works well but didn't love the fact that it was an oil
Works great to remove makeup but I found after using it I realized I didn't love washing with an oil as it didn't feel like it was refreshing. It did the job and if you like oils it is good for you but I'd prefer a gel-like product.Can't live without!
Seriously the most amazing part of my regime, I look forward everyday to coming home to washing my face because of this. It literally melts everything off your face and smells like your at the salon getting a facial!Very nice
This pre cleanse oil is one of the lightest in texture that I have owned, which I love as it feels it can really penetrate the pores more easily. I really like the fact it is waterpositiveand turns to a milky substance as you finis using and rinse off. Much easier to clean off than my other face oil cleansers.Too many essential oils
This oil cleanser removes my makeup and sunscreen really well. My issue with it is that it has so many essential oils including grapefruit oil, lavender oil, etc. It also has a very strong, although natural, scent. My face burnt a little bit when I first applied it and that's most likely due to the essential oils so beware if you have sensitive skin.great makeup remover
this pre cleanse is great for getting makeup off! it takes it all off easily and doesnt dry at the skin at all. definitely recommendEveryone needs this in their life
Cleans skin well, I have oily skin and its not drying. Smells nice and fresh, this is a non negotiable. If you start with anything, start with this.Must have for makeup lovers
A really great oil cleanser to start the night routine. I love how my skin feels so much cleaner after using this and I follow it up with my regular cleanser. There is not a trace of make up left after I use this combo!
Should be the first step of every routine!
This cleanser is absolutely amazing. I always double cleanse and this is the first step of my nightly routine. It melts away all the products I use during the day! Perfect!Go to!
I am new to oil cleansers but they are amazing! my skin has been so clean and so softmakeup remover
it acts like a gentle makeup remover. it is very gentle on the skin. good for oily skin too.You need this!
I do not like adding more steps to my beauty routine to keep things simple but this is a necessary step when removing make up! It glides on to your skin to remove EVERYTHING and you can wash it away knowing your skin is ready to be cleansed. The smell is also wonderful.Love this
I love this pre cleanser. I found that my cleanser wasn't removing all the day's residue from my face but when I use this first, there's nothing left to wipe away after cleansing. It leaves my skin perfectly clean but so soft and calm at the same time. This product is expensive however it will last forever and in my opinion definitely worth it.Really good
Great for pre-cleanse with makeup, loving itLove
Cleans skin well, I have oily skin and its not drying. Smells nice and fresh.Fave
This is my favourite cleansing oil but i really struggle to justify the price when I can buy palmsers for about $15. Great product but overpriced for what it is.Great but expensive
This is great, however I just have to agree that the prices are way too expansive especially out there, dermalogica on adore beauty is however much cheaper. If I knew it about it then I would of most likely got it hereAmazing!!
Love this product , as soon as using it skin is so soft and smells so good definitely getting more when finished bottle !!Gentle cleanser
This is a great cleanser to use as a first cleanse. Dissolves makeup well and is gentle enough on the skin not to cause irritation. I usually follow this with a cream cleanser and find that all my makeup is taken off. I have combination to dry skin and this product works well for me.Best makeup remover
Honestly the best makeup remover. Make sure you massage it into the skin really well.Lovely
A terrific cleanser to use in the evening, it almost dissolves your makeup as your massaging it into your skin. Terrific and so cleansing.Great
This is a great oil cleanser and my skin has been much cleaner and less dry since introducing this into my routineBest make up remover
I received a sample from a Dermalogica skin therapist, as she said this will help melt your makeup right off! It absolutely does. This is the best makeup remover / Pre-Cleanse I have ever used. Deep cleanses the skin and leaves skin feeling gorgeousPreCleanse
This is a gorgeous product and gives an extra depth to your cleaning routine. Great for make up removal but also just great to use in general. Doesn't dry out skin at all and feels so nice to use.such a wonderful product
Removes make up extremely well, I was quite impressed! Will definitely continue to buy
A good precleanse
This precleanse does it's job well, it's very good at removing makeup after a long day and also feels quite hydrating. However, the scent is quite strong and it can be messy. I prefer Dermalogica's precleansing balm over the oil.Love it
A really great oil cleanser, I use this in my nighttime skincare routine and I love how my skin feels so much cleaner without feeling dried out after using it.Pre cleanse your way to beautiful skin.
I love Dermalogica skin care products, and I love cleansing, I think it's my favourite step in my skin care routine, as it removes dirt, oil and makeup quickly, makes skin soft and ready for the next product, it's relaxing, and with the right products, you can create a true spa like environment in your own home day and night.

My skin type is combo oily and I’ve been on the search for good cleansers and exfoliators especially on my makeup days. I came across this product and it has surprised me. One pump and my full face is off, even my mascara that is so hard to budge with my makeup and eye removers. The only thing that I found weird was the texture, mine is quite liquid like and clear, my technique is to pump it into ...Read MoreGood product - highly fragranced
I really enjoy this product as a make up remover. I do find that it removes mascara and high coverage foundation well. I have very sensitive skin and have over time developed a stronger reaction to the fragrance. around my eye area feels red and inflamed after use.
Such a shame, I liked the product, just way too much fragrance for sensitive skin types.Pre cleanse and essential step
I have been using pre cleanse for so many years and for me it is an essential step in my cleansing routine. Although I don’t wear a lot of makeup at the end of my day a double cleanse just doesn’t clean my skin enough and my skin still feels dirty. With the pre cleanse as my first step I then only need to cleanse once to get serum ready skin. Since using pre cleanse I get very few breakouts and n...Read MorePre cleanse
this is a great product! would be even better with a price reduction! expensive!Great PreCleanse
I prefer using this to remove my makeup than micellar water. Its a lot more effective and just melts away every trace of makeup including waterproof mascara. Smells amazing too! Just wish it wasn't so pricey!Pre everything
this is a great product that lasts ages! it is quite expensive however it does help remove dirt and oilMagical!
I love the feeling off putting this on my face and it melts, sinks to the skin subtlety. The smell is just divine100% melts your makeup
This will completely melt off your makeup in the first stage of cleansing. But because it is oil based, youll need a second cleanser to wash off the oily residue. It works 100% as long as you follow the instructions re: mixing with water etcPerfect for removing makeup and soothing
Dermalogica PreCleanse works well for removing makeup, and was soothing for my sensitive skin. The product is an oil and when rubbed into the skin removes all the 'yuck' stuff and I loved that it did not feel like it was 'stripping' my skin, but instead nourishing it.best thing
it is such a good makeup remover. i tried it as a sample and i am already hooked. it removes the makeup so gently and does not dries the skin out.Great for sensitive skin
This oil cleanser is best for all weathers and skin, I wish they can make it more affordableperfect first cleanse
the absolute best oil cleanser out there. a light oil formula that perfectly melts off all my makeup, even waterproof mascara and eyeliner. Highly recommend for all skin typesSoothing oil cleanser
This is an oil cleanser that removes makeup easily while leaving the skin feeling soothed and clean. It also smells very soothing (think a light botanical scent) and just so lovely to use at the end of a long dayFirst cleanse queen
So good!
Stops me from having to cleanse 3-4 times to get makeup off and get a proper clean to only 2
Once with pre cleanser second with foaming cleanser.
It also leaves your skin lightly hydrated but definitely not oily or clogged
It turns into a refreshing lather when you add water
ITS THE BESTDermalogica PreCleanse
I bought this to add to my travel pack I have been using this product for over 2 years.Takes off makeup and grime gently
This precleanse was recommended to me by a facialist almost as an afterthought. I saw it was on special and gave it a try and it's become an essential part of my routine. It removes all of my makeup and daily grime before moving on to cleansing. Love it.Amazing but just so expensive
I really really enjoy this product - it's so gentle on my skin but cleans deep down and makes me feel so fresh and clean afterwards. The only downfall is the price - it's just a little too much! Even though it does last a while...So good!
I love this product, it makes taking off my makeup at the end of the day so easy.Best makeup remover!
Provides a super easy and deep clean prior to cleansing. Makeup just slides off. Makes washing your face much quicker.Lovely to use but a bit expensive
This product is lovely, but I think it's a tad expensive. It smells amazing, has some beautiful natural ingredients, and breaks down makeup really easily. It's the perfect first cleanse even for oily skin. I just wish it was a bit cheaper!Game changer
I know I'm late in discovering this but I just love this oil cleanser. It's fantastic at removing for step.one of my double cleanse. Can't recommend it enough!My holy grail make up remover
I have been using this cleanser since i was 20 (i'm 33) and i wouldn't use anything else to remove my make up! Applied to a dry face you lightly work it into the skin, emulsify with water and then remove with a cloth and your face is ready for your second cleanse. Only thing i've found that can remove all of my eye make up without having to go over the area many times, which you don't want to do a...Read Moreworth the money
This stuff is like magic. I use it in the morning before my shower, massage it in for 5 or so minutes and it basically melts away all the dead skin and impurities from overnight AND leaves you still feeling moisturised. It doesn't rip away all of your skins natural oils, just the surface layer stuff and clogged pores, so you feel fresh and glowing after use. It is amazing, I have repurchased alrea...Read MoreThe best to remove make up!
I love this product! I use it every night to remove all traces of my make up and then follow with the special cleansing gel. These products work great together. I highly recommend this product to anyone wanting to take the day off without stripping or rubbing the skin bare. Wouldn't use anything else!love it
been using it since forever...love everything this brand offers.Obsessed with this (but is on pricey side)
If you can afford to buy this as a pre cleanse then don't hesitate - it is an INCREDIBLE product. It feels amazing and removes every speck of makeup. It is so luxurious. I do find it to be a little too pricey for what it is - essentially a really fancy makeup remover. Micellar water will work just as well, but doesn't feel as luxurious.A dream!
It’s so great for removing makeup! It’s very easy to use, particularly at night when your tired and just wanna get your makeup off. I really enjoy using this!Best PreCleanse
This precleanser smells incredibly good and smells like refreshing ingredients that are good for the skin. This product is easily apply-able and gets rid of all starting dirt on the skin. I usually follow this with a gel or foaming cleanser for the double cleanse at night time.LOOOOOVE!!
I cannot get enough of this product! My sister has this and was begging me to stop using makeup wipes and get onto this product, I then received a sample in my next adore beauty order and my goodness I haven’t looked back! Nothing removes makeup better than an oil. I always used to use micellar water with makeup pads followed by cleansing and somehow that was never enough! You do have to follow up...Read Moregood product
I received this as a sample. It is a pretty good deep-cleansing oil but a little bit expensive.Great first step
This is a great first step in my daily skin care routine. Easy to use and you don’t need a huge amount of product to get the job done. Really effectively removes my heavy makeup and preps my face for my foam cleanser. You might be thinking “do I really need a PRE cleanse?” You certainly do if you wear any kind of makeup. Makes a world of difference.Best makeup remover
This is amazing at taking off all makeup, great cleansing oil.2 in 1
I love that this is a daily option, but can remove a crazy amount of make up off your face in the most gentle manner. As someone who has tried a lot of make up removers, this is basically an oil remover and a water based remover combo. Really good for those who wear make up every day but are tired of having to use a lot of cotton pads to get it off. So gentle and easy to use.Love this cleansing oil
Such a lovely cleansing oil, ideal as first step to remove makeup and prep skin for second cleanser. Smells lovely and rinses off without leaving any residue which is great for a cleansing oil.Can’t rate this high enough !!
I’m not a fan of micellar water and wanted something to help take off full face of makeup and I’m so happy I purchased this, I was so surprised with how well it cleans the face and removes makeup. It’s definitely worth the price I would repurchase this over and over again!A must-have product
This product does exactly what it says on the label - it’s melts away the day’s makeup and takes off absolutely everything. This precleanse has substituted my 5 makeup wipes at the end of every day with only one pump of product required. So much easier to have this in my skincare routine and the bottle will last for ages! A total must-have!!Works on even the heaviest makeup
I used to use this religiously before balms became a thing. I like to wear a full face of makeup when I go out and this is really effective in getting in there and lifting all that makeup off, so there's less tugging and pulling at my skin.love
Removes make up extremely well, I was quite impressed! Will definitely continue to buyHeavy duty make-up remover
This product is amazing for a first cleanse. Even if I am wearing heavy, waterproof makeup it just melts away after using this. Bottle lasts for a long time as you only need a small amount, but the price tag can sting a bit when there's other cleansers out there that do the same job. That being said I will still continue to buy and love this product!The Best Pre Cleanse
I use this as a pre-cleanse before my normal cleanser and this helps get off all my makeup effortlessly and it smells so nice! in loveFavourite
This product is really effective. It takes off my makeup easily. It makes my skin feel soft. Definitely recommend.Great for stubborn makeup
I was told my particular waterproof mascara needed a particular remover but this precleanse oil cleans it off effortlessly.
I have sensitive eyes and try not to use wipes as it makes my eyes go red and sting a little bit because this is so smooth, it doesn’t irritate my skin or my eyesOne of my favourites
This is one of my favourite skincare products to use! Great for taking off makeup prior to cleansing and also great to use before cleansing in general. Makes my skin feel soft and smells amazing. A little goes a long wayhighly recommend
Amazing value for money, smells awesome. Comes out as an oil based, gets rid of makeup no dramas - then washes off with some light foaming. Still my go-to for precleanse.
Keep in mind that Dermalogica works best in a team - this cleanser is fantastic paired with the toner and add in the oomph of the precleanse on days when you've worn a full face of make up.Effective and gentle
I’ve tried a few pre cleanse/oil cleansers and a couple of Korean ones have given me terrible blackheads but switched to this baby and was sold. A little goes quite a long way, and is effective without stripping and drying. Definitely nicer than double cleansing with my standard cleanser.

Previously I religiously used micellar water to remove my makeup as that was the only thing that didn’t irritate my sensitive skin.

The easiest way I found to u...Read MoreI will never use another pre-cleanse!
Although dermalogica can come with a hefty price tag, this oil cleanser is more than worth it! It lasts so long and you only need 1/2-1 pump of it to get a full face of makeup off. It’s so gently and nourishing even for someone with oily skin! I love the combination of this with their cleansing gel for double cleansing, it’s cleans without stripping the skinFave
My favourite facial cleanser. This oil smells divine the scent gets me every time.Fabulous!!
I paired this product with the dermalogica special cleansing gel and it was a fabulous match for double cleansing! Doesn’t strip your skin and is great at removing make up residue!
Only downside is the amount of product loss from the faulty pump, i got around this by transferring it into a another bottle but it’s annoying for the price unfortunately!incredible
I love to use this before bed. I love using this during winter as it stops my skin from appearing flaky!Magical!
My friend moved overseas and gave me this. I tried and OMG! It smells divine and makes me want to keep doing it again and again! Impressed!amazing at removing makeup and cleansing skin
Repurchased the Dermalogica Precleanse a few times and I can say with confidence that this is the best precleanse currently on the market. The product is divine, the smell isn't overpowering and the consistency is thin, which is what I prefer when it comes to buying precleanses, and most of all, it does the job well! It removes all of make-up and any grim that's built up during the day. However, I...Read MoreLove it
I have so far been given samples of this product and I love it. It feels so nice to use, gets rid of all my makeup gently and my face feels smooth after (I still cleanse after it) but the product is a winner. It is now on my wishlist for when I can buy more.Love it
Received as a sample and have now purchased. I like the consistency and find that it does a really good clean. Doesn’t irritate or make my skin oily. Very happy with this productLOVE
buying this again now its a must have!! Sooo worth the money!Great
Melts away makeup instantly, great first step in a double cleanse.Great to break down makeup
I recently started double cleansing, using an oil cleanser first to break down all my makeup. This cleanser has a pleasant smell and does not leave the skin feeling oily or tacky.My Favourite!
Ive suffered from really bad skin for as long as I can remember. I use to use Proactive and it completely messed up my skin. On the surface it looked 'ok' but close up there was A LOT of bumps and pimples under my skin. It was gross :(

To be completely honest, I would be lying if I did say that this is a beautiful product that when used before a foaming cleanser, melts away impurities extremely well.
