Collection: Cosmedix Starterkit

Complete routines for cleansing, preparation, and recovery

A starter kit is the most accessible way to get acquainted with a professional skincare brand. Instead of putting together individual products and hoping they work well together, you receive a thoughtful combination where each product plays a specific role in a complete routine. At Cosmedix, the kits are not randomly assembled — they follow the logic of a skin therapist: cleansing and exfoliating, preparing the skin for a professional treatment, or recovering after a peel, laser, or microneedling.

The Cosmedix starter kits collection consists of three targeted sets. The Double Cleanse Kit for those who want to take evening cleansing seriously, the Treatment Prep Starter Kit as a preparatory routine for a professional treatment, and the Post Treatment Starter Kit for recovery afterward. Each kit also serves as an introduction to the brand in handy travel-size bottles, suitable for travel or as a gift.

Why choose a Cosmedix starter kit?

A starter kit takes the decision-making process off your hands: all products complement each other, cover a complete routine, and are tailored to one clear skin goal. The travel-size formats in the Treatment Prep and Post Treatment kits are carry-on friendly and last on average three to four weeks — exactly the period you need to assess the effectiveness of a routine or to support a professional treatment. Additionally, the price per ml in a kit is more economical than buying products separately, making a starter kit a logical entry point for those new to Cosmedix.

Find your ideal Cosmedix starter kit

For those who want to optimize evening cleansing. The Double Cleanse Kit is designed for the double cleansing method: first an oil cleanser to dissolve makeup, SPF, and sebum, then a foam cleanser to thoroughly clean the skin. Especially valuable for those who wear makeup or SPF daily, and for combination to oily skin that quickly develops clogged pores without thorough cleansing.

For those preparing for a professional treatment. The Treatment Prep Starter Kit (4x 15ml) contains Purity Clean (exfoliating cleanser), Simply Brilliant (brightening serum), Define (retinol + AHAs), and Hydrate+ SPF 17. This kit prepares the skin for a peel, laser, or microneedling — a well-prepared skin responds better to the treatment, recovers faster, and maintains the result longer. It can also be used as a standalone routine to reset the skin without a planned treatment.

For those recovering after a treatment or waking up sensitive. The Post Treatment Starter Kit (4x 15ml) contains Benefit Clean (mild sulfate-free cleanser), Cell ID (barrier-repairing serum with peptides), C.P.R. (soothing recovery serum), and Hydrate+ SPF 17. This combination supports the natural recovery process after a peel, laser, or microneedling, and is also suitable for chronically sensitive or reactive skin seeking calm and barrier support.

How to use a Cosmedix starter kit?

1. Choose the starter kit that fits your skin goal: optimize evening cleansing with the Double Cleanse Kit, prepare for a treatment with the Treatment Prep Starter Kit, or recover with the Post Treatment Starter Kit
2. For the Double Cleanse Kit: in the evening, first use the oil cleanser on dry skin to dissolve makeup, SPF, and sebum, followed by the foam cleanser with lukewarm water
3. For the Treatment Prep Starter Kit: cleanse morning and evening with Purity Clean, apply Simply Brilliant in the morning and finish with Hydrate+ SPF 17 as the last step, and use Define two to four times per week in the evening routine — build up slowly to avoid irritation
4. For the Post Treatment Starter Kit: cleanse with Benefit Clean, apply Cell ID first and then C.P.R. to further soothe the skin, and always finish the morning routine with Hydrate+ SPF 17 as the last step
5. Plan the Treatment Prep Starter Kit two to four weeks before a scheduled treatment for optimal results
6. Start the Post Treatment Starter Kit immediately after a treatment — from 24 to 48 hours after the procedure, or as directed by the treating professional
7. Always finish the morning routine with the included SPF — non-negotiable during prep and recovery phases

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a Cosmedix starter kit typically last?

The Treatment Prep Starter Kit and Post Treatment Starter Kit each consist of four 15ml bottles. With daily use, these last about three to four weeks — exactly the period needed to prepare the skin for a follow-up treatment or to support recovery after a procedure. The Double Cleanse Kit contains full-size cleansers and lasts significantly longer.

Can I use a Cosmedix starter kit without planning a professional treatment?

Absolutely. The Treatment Prep Starter Kit is designed as preparation, but the four products also form a complete routine on their own for those who want to reset their skin and get to know the brand. The Post Treatment Starter Kit is an excellent choice for chronically sensitive skin or for those who want to strengthen the skin barrier after a period of over-stimulation — for example, from retinol or acids.

Which Cosmedix starter kit is suitable for sensitive skin?

The Post Treatment Starter Kit is formulated around soothing, barrier-repairing ingredients and is therefore the gentlest choice for sensitive skin. The Treatment Prep Starter Kit contains retinol and exfoliants — suitable for those who want to build up slowly, but less suitable as a starting point for active sensitivity.

Are Cosmedix starter kits suitable as gifts?

Yes, and this is one of the most appreciated uses. The four travel-size bottles in a neat package make both the Treatment Prep and Post Treatment kit a thoughtful skincare gift that is also practical for the recipient. For those who prefer a richer cleansing routine, the Double Cleanse Kit is a nice alternative.
