Prequel earns strong reviews for effective, hydrating formulas—Gleanser, Barrier Therapy, and Universal Skin Solution deliver softer, clearer skin—yet feedback flags issues like the Lucent-C’s strong odor and mixed results from the silicone Scar Stick. Overall, reviews suggest the brand is good for sensitive and dry skin, with generous sizes and textures that feel silky or cushiony, though some products have awkward application or a slippery, slimy feel.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
After being targeted for ads on IG, etc., I got curious and bought a product. I've only tried the Lucent-C (their Vitamin C product), so can only speak to this singular product. Firstly, the smell is awful - but if you can get over it, it's a product that really works. Instantly smoother and brighter upon application - and over time, I've seen that my skin tone is more even.
Love the face wash and the vitamin C. Priced so well and very effective! I know they recently sold to a bigger company so time till tell if they remain as effective and affordable. I really enjoy the products and recommend.

I’m loving Prequel’s oil cleanser — it makes taking off makeup a breeze. I haven't tried double cleansing until I bought this; it’s super gentle on my skin and leaves it feeling soft and clean, not stripped. Plus, I grabbed it at Target, which made it so easy to try! Definitely a new staple in my routine. I want to try the other products in the future, but am hoping target will carry smaller sizes :)
I’ve been waiting to try prequel for so long. The first product I’ve ever tried was the salicylic acid gel cleanser and it’s made my face so clear. I have been able to clear up my acne double cleaning with this and product a good clean canvas for under my makeup.
I’ve tried a number of this brands products, the gleanser, pre-gleanse multi acid peel, multi-quench and skin utility balm. They’ve all been great and will probably repurchase especially because they’re quite affordable and good quality. The real game changer for me though is the gleanser. I have dry sensitive skin and this cleanser is incredible! Not only does it clean without stripping but my skin feels softer and more hydrated after using it. A bottle also lasts a really long time.
I love Prequel so much. The formulas are stellar, the price point is very good, and I appreciate the educational content from Dr. Ellis as well. I've loved all the products I've tried, including the Gleanser, USS spray, and the ointment.
