Soap is strong in alkali and can damage the skin’s natural protective layer and irritate and dry it out. Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Refreshing Cleansing Gel is kind on your skin and protects it from drying out. Sebum (the oily substance that your skin produces naturally to stop it drying out) is not water soluble and so will not be removed by washing your face with water alone.

Ideally yes. Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Clarifying Toner is a valuable last step in your cleansing routine and leaves your skin ready to fully absorb the active ingredients in your care product. Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Clarifying Toner helps to remove any remaining cleanser (gel and milk) and make-up. And, because it is alcohol-free, it is gentle on your skin and helps to support skin moisturisation.

Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Refreshing Cleansing Gel has been formulated for normal to combination skin and for those who like a gel cleanser. You can find information on different skin types including dry skin, sensitive skin and skin prone to acne throughout our website, but if you are unsure we recommend that you ask a pharmacist or dermatologist for a face-to-face diagnosis.
