Probably the cleanser to remove make-up and dirt first, then the scrub.If you do it the other way you are more likely to break out because you’ll be scrubbing the dirt into your skin. But after you go to the dermatologist you probably won’t be using either of them. I just went last week and they told me to stop using any kind of scrub because it makes more severe acne like mine worse.

I use the scrub first just to get rid of any excess skin and dirt.
Then I use the cleanser to clean down deep into the fresh, open pores.
It works for me(:

You should use the scrub first. I use the same one.cleans deep and it works great. used it and i started to see results right away. Than use the cleanser.

you should probably pick just one product.
but if i had to pick the order, i’d say the scrub first. you could use the scrub at night to scrub the days dirt away, and then use the cleanser in the morning.
but it doesn’t make sense to use both, because if u use the scrub at night, then there’s nothing to "cleanse" in the morning or even right after you used the scrub.
You would probably just irritate the skin, and you’re also mixing brands.
Also, once you go to the dermatologist, you won’t be using either of them. I went last september for the same thing, and got a prescription. which was the best and only thing that worked for me.

Scrub then cleanser. the scrub will get rid of all the dead skin making the cleanser more effective because if will have more open pores to go into. Good luck!
