When it comes to acne-prone, congested, or oily skin, consistency and the right ingredients make all the difference. Dermaquest has long been trusted by skincare professionals for results-driven formulations, and the DermaClear Cleanser and DermaClear Pads are no exception. Together, they form a powerful daily system designed to clarify the skin, control breakouts, and restore a healthy, balanced complexion.
Step01 — DermaClear Cleanser: THE FOUNDATION OF CLEAR SKIN
Cleansing is the most important step in any skincare routine, especially for acne-prone skin. The DermaClear Cleanser is a gentle yet highly effective gel cleanser formulated to remove excess oil, impurities, and pore-clogging debris without stripping the skin.
KEY BENEFITS: Deeply cleanses pores to help prevent breakouts. Controls excess oil while maintaining skin balance. Soothes inflammation & redness associated with acne. Leaves skin feeling fresh, clean, & comfortable — never tight.
Why it works? DermaClear Cleanser is infused with a blend of exfoliating and antibacterial ingredients, including salicylic acid, which penetrates into pores to dissolve oil and dead skin cells. Botanical extracts help calm the skin, making this cleanser suitable for daily use — even for those prone to sensitivity.
INGREDIENT HIGHLIGHTS: Salicylic Acid (BHA) — Penetrates deep into pores to break down excess oil and debris, helping to prevent and treat breakouts. Tea Tree & Botanical Extracts — Provide antibacterial and calming benefits to reduce redness and irritation. Gentle Cleansing Agents — Effectively cleanse without stripping the skin barrier. Used morning and evening, this cleanser creates the perfect canvas for treatment products to work more effectively.
Step02 — DermaClear Pads: TARGETED TREATMENT, SIMPLIFIED
The DermaClear Pads take acne treatment to the next level by combining exfoliation, oil control, and antibacterial action in one easy step. Pre-soaked and perfectly dosed, these pads are ideal for busy lifestyles or anyone looking to simplify their skincare routine without sacrificing results.
KEY BENEFITS: Unclogs pores and reduces congestion. Helps minimise active breakouts and prevent new ones. Refines skin texture and improves clarity. Balances oil production for a smoother, matte finish.
Why it works? Formulated with salicylic acid and glycolic acid, the pads provide both deep pore exfoliation and surface resurfacing. This dual-action approach helps clear existing blemishes while improving overall skin tone and texture. Regular use also enhances skin cell turnover, which can reduce post-acne marks over time.
INGREDIENT HIGHLIGHTS: Salicylic Acid (BHA) — Targets congestion and bacteria within the pores, making it highly effective for active acne. Glycolic Acid (AHA) — Gently exfoliates the skin’s surface to smooth texture, brighten tone, and refine pores. Soothing Agents — Help minimise irritation and support skin clarity during active treatment.
Better Together…
While each product is effective on its own, the real magic happens when they’re used together: The DermaClear Cleanser preps the skin by thoroughly cleansing and calming inflammation. The DermaClear Pads then deliver targeted exfoliation and treatment, allowing active ingredients to penetrate more efficiently. This synergistic approach helps address acne at multiple levels—oil production, clogged pores, bacteria, and inflammation—resulting in clearer, healthier-looking skin.
Who should use DermaClear? This duo is ideal for: Oily and acne-prone skin. Teen and adult acne. Congested or breakout-prone skin. Those struggling with uneven texture or post-acne marks. If you’re new to active ingredients, start by using the pads once daily and increase as tolerated.
