Why is there(sodium hydroxide) lye in this product? I wouldn't think you should leave caustic lye on the skin
- Asked by Wondery

- Q
Is this product mattifying at all? If not, what moisturizer do you recommend for oily, acne prone, mature (40+) skin? I currently use the preclense cleansing oil, the clearing skin wash, and the daily microfoliant. Thanks in advance!
- Asked by Never too Late for Skincare
- Official Answer By Dermalogica US - Brand EngageHello, thank you for contacting Dermalogica! Cooling Aqua Jelly contains a retinol-like bioflavonoid complex to help reduce excess oil however is not mattifying. We recommend Oil Free Matte SPF 30. This broad spectrum sunscreen helps prevent shine and skin aging on oily, breakout-prone skin. Oil absorbers help maintain an all-day matte finish, preventing shine without any powdery residue.

Magic jelly ❣️
I love a good gel moisturizer and of course, Dermologica did not disappoint. The Clear Start Cooling Aqua Jelly Moisturizer I received complimentary from Dermologica (ULTA team) is a watery gel texture. The scent is so beautiful... It smells like a flower from my childhood and brings to mind bitters...

Average Moisturizer
I had been using Garnier Moisture Bomb and absolutely loved it; however, it contains fragrance and I've been trying to switch a completely fragrance free beauty routine (not due to a sensitivity/allergy to fragrance; just a desire to have fewer additives and chemicals in my skin care products). I ha...

Fantastic, but the smell is OBNOXIOUS
This is such a great moisturizer for oily skin. Its very light, not greasy, and very hydrating. The SUPER STRONG floral scent is pushing nauseating, but I can put up with it for the moisturizing aspect.
Great texture, good performance, TERRIBLE smell
I read the reviews. I saw that others have noted the strong fragrance. I thought all those people were just sensitive; it couldn't be that bad. Oh no no: it is entirely that bad. Don't get me wrong: I love the gel texture for my combination oily skin, and the product has a great cooling sensation and absorbs well. BUT the fragrance, y'all! I am not sensitive to scents, but the floral scent is pungent and overpowering. It's the sole reason I will not repurchase, and it's too bad because it's an otherwise great product.
Great Product for Oily Skin
I've been using this for about 3 weeks now. I really enjoy the product and like my skin doesn't feel super greasy. My only minor issue, is the smell is a bit odd for me, it's very tolerable it's just a bit odd for me. Also, this is better suited for summer time and warmer climates and can feel a bit drying in the winter so just be aware of that as well. But overall great product
Love!
Love this product, I have been using it for 2+ years. No scent, lightweight, absorbs well. I love this gel moisturizer.
Not for me
I thooght id like this lighter gel facial moisturizer because i habe pretty pily skin bit ots jist notnfor me. Ive been using prodicts to help ansorb oil and actually need a PM moisturizer bit this one does not do the trick amd atill leaves my fave feeling dry at night. I think i will ne switching bavk to the Dermalogica skin smooyhing moisturizer afyer im done with this bottle.
