Default Re: Question about Cleansing

That’s shorthand, it does add to skill.

Nothing in DFRPG (or GURPS) modifies actual success rolls. You can add or subtract from damage rolls or reaction rolls, by success rolls are always unmodified — the skill (or other target) is the number that gets modified.

If any rule is telling you to modify a success roll (the Bless spell has the same issue), it means to modify the effective skill.
