Perfect for all skin types
Has been good for my dry skin
This is a great cleanser and it works really well with a Clarisonic. However, the dispensing cap wastes too much product! A little bit goes a long way. I always end up dispensing too much even when trying to be careful. I ended up transferring some to a small travel size bottle so I have more control over dispensing the product, but I shouldn't have to do that.

I have used the Special Cleansing Gel for over 20 years and even with the new and “hot†products on the market, NONE of them compare to Dermalogica SCG. Along with being age-fluid, it is also gender fluid. It is skin care for the WHOLE Family!
