Description
Introductory set for blemished skin with signs of aging
Building a new skincare routine is an investment—both in money and time. Especially within an advanced line like Dermalogica Active Clearing, you want to be sure the products suit your skin before committing to full sizes. This kit elegantly solves that dilemma with three travel-sized versions of the most essential products from the line, at a fraction of the price of the full-size packages.
The Clear + Brighten Kit contains everything you need for a complete morning and evening routine: the Clearing Skin Wash for cleansing, the Daily Microfoliant for gentle daily exfoliation, and the AGE Bright Clearing Serum as a 2-in-1 treatment against blemishes and skin aging. Together, they form the complete foundation for skin dealing with both breakouts and early wrinkles.
Benefits
- Includes three full products in convenient travel sizes for on-the-go or as an introduction
- Addresses three skin concerns simultaneously: blemishes, dull skin, and visible aging
- Significantly more cost-effective than purchasing the same products individually in full sizes
- Suitable for immediate start of a complete Active Clearing routine
- Complies with carry-on liquid restrictions and is ideal for weekend or business trips
Products in this kit
Clearing Skin Wash (50ml): A foaming cleanser with 0.5% salicylic acid that cleans pores and removes excess oil without drying out the skin. Enriched with tea tree, eucalyptus, and menthol for an immediate cooling effect. The ideal first step, morning and evening.
Daily Microfoliant (13g): A fine powder exfoliant based on rice bran, papain (from papaya), salicylic acid, and green tea. Activated by water, it forms a creamy microfoam that removes dead skin cells and evens skin tone. Gentle enough for daily use and one of the most praised products in the Dermalogica range worldwide.
AGE Bright Clearing Serum (10ml): A 2-in-1 serum with 2% salicylic acid, niacinamide, and the patented AGE Bright™ Complex that works with the skin microbiome. Targets active breakouts while simultaneously reducing visible signs of aging—two benefits in one for mature blemished skin.
Active ingredients in the kit
Salicylic acid (BHA): The common thread through all three products, in varying concentrations. The cleanser contains 0.5% for daily cleansing, the serum 2% for intensive treatment. This oil-soluble acid penetrates deep into pores and keeps them clean from within.
Phytic acid (from rice): Present in the cleanser, serum, and exfoliant. A mild acid that brightens the skin, fades pigmentation spots, and evens overall skin appearance.
Papain & rice bran: The heart of the Daily Microfoliant. Papain is a natural enzyme from papaya that dissolves dead skin cells without mechanical scrubbing, while rice bran soothes the skin and binds moisture. A much gentler approach than classic scrubs with physical grains.
Niacinamide: Included in the AGE Bright Clearing Serum. Regulates oil production, calms redness, refines visible pores, and helps fade brownish spots after breakouts.
Botanical blend: Tea tree, chamomile, witch hazel, lavender, and lemon balm together form the soothing, natural framework around the active acids. They prevent the skin from becoming irritated by exfoliation.
How to use the kit
- Cleanse morning and evening with the Clearing Skin Wash and rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water
- Use the Daily Microfoliant two or three times a week after cleansing—rub half a teaspoon of powder in wet hands into a creamy foam, massage, and rinse off
- Then apply a thin layer of AGE Bright Clearing Serum over the entire face and let it dry
- Follow with your trusted day or night cream
- Always finish with sun protection in the morning, as all three products contain salicylic acid which makes the skin more sensitive to UV
Suitable for
- Adults who want to try the Active Clearing line before purchasing full sizes
- Travelers who want to bring their complete routine in carry-on luggage
- Skin with simultaneous blemishes and visible signs of aging
- Dull skin with post-inflammatory pigmentation spots after breakouts
- Not recommended for very dry or damaged skin barriers, or when using prescription acne medication simultaneously
Frequently asked questions
How long do the products in this kit last with daily use?
The 50ml Clearing Skin Wash lasts about three to four weeks with twice-daily cleansing. The 13g Daily Microfoliant lasts about three weeks with every-other-day use, and the 10ml AGE Bright serum is enough for about three to four weeks of daily use. Together, they roughly form a one-month routine.
Can I take this kit in my carry-on luggage on a plane?
Yes. All liquids in this set are well under the standard 100ml limit for carry-on luggage within the EU. Place them together in a clear plastic bag of up to one liter, as required by airports.
What should I do after this kit—what full sizes are the logical next step?
The most logical step is to purchase each product in full size that proved to suit your skin well. Many people find that especially the Daily Microfoliant and Clearing Skin Wash quickly become staples in their routine. For the full Active Clearing routine, you might also consider the Retinol Clearing Oil for evenings, and possibly the Breakout Biotic Moisturizer as a day cream.
Do I need a separate moisturizer with this kit?
Yes. This set does not include a moisturizer, so you will need a suitable day cream and possibly a night cream to complete the routine. For blemished skin, the Breakout Biotic Moisturizer is a natural complement, as its formulation seamlessly matches the other three products.
