I was given free samples of the Clean Start range made by dermalogica form my friend who is a beauty therapist. This range has been designed for young teenage skin and Is also priced to appeal to the younger generation too. I have tried several products from the Clean Start range but I will be reviewing the Ready Set Scrub.


I received a trial size tube and have since bought the full sized product. Its a 75 ml tube and is mainly white in colour with funky blue writing on it. On the back of the tube is a list of ingredients and other information. I much prefer this packaging to other dermalogica ranges as its more appealing and not clinical looking unlike the other ranges.


The Ready Set Scrub can be bought from dermalogica's website or any beauty department store that stocks dermalogica. I paid around £12.00 at the time but recommend you look around or ask for a discount at a beauty counter as it often works for me.


Ready Set Scrub is ex foliation scrub, it contains natural ingredients and is not tested on animals. As I have said its designed for teenage skin but I am 26 but have signs of teenage skin oily skin and spots so I would recommend it to anyone with this skin type. It has skin friendly ingredients to benefit your skin.


Before I use the scrub I like to wash my face with a cleansing soap and warm water and then pat dry my face. I like to use the scrub when I am in the bath relaxing. I opened the tube and apply a 50p sized blob to my hand, I rub my two hands together and then rub and massage it into my face in circular motions to aid drawing out impurities and the circular motion helps circulation too. I like to leave it for a few minutes to allow the product to sink into my skin, I always avoid this product near my eyes as it does sting like mad if it comes into contact with eyes. I wash it off with warm water and then dry my face.


It feels very gentle on my skin and the ex foliation grain is so small it does not feel like sand paper unlike other face scrubs I have used. It removes dead skin cells and polishes skin, my skin feels soft and smooth after I use this product. It really improves my skin texture and my skin looks fresh and bright. I only use the scrub twice a week and the tube has lasted me 6 months so far with lots left to use. It also prevents my skin from breaking out in spots as it contains tea tree which kills and prevents bacteria from forming. My pores look much less visible as well as it has ingredients that gently tighting skin.


I am very impressed with this product and am happy to pay the price tag and will be buying more when I run out. I have fairly sensitive skin and found this to be a really gentle product but I did expect it to be good quality being made by dermalogica as they are the skin care experts in my opinion. I was not put off with it being designed for teenagers, I think it should have been marketed for young women. My skin feels and looks good and I am really happy I tried the scrub.
