In this post, I am excited to share some of my fav
Dermalogica skincare products with you guys as I have been raving about them
for years
My skin journey has been crazy especially since I started to
take medication for Lupus which has made my skin super oily, and before that, I
was dealing with mid ache which also left me with hyperpigmentation which I
covered with make-up and the cycle of breakouts continued.
It wasn’t until I was in my late 20’s when I went to have my
first facial that I was introduced to Dermalogica. Once my facial was over I
was provided with a Facial Map which showed my skin issues.
And a prescription of products to use.
As the Dermalogica products are quite pricey I decided to
try the travel kit to see how it goes before investing in the full-size
products which I eventually did, as the products for me are worth it as my skin
responds to the products and the regime
Dermalogica
the Multi-active Toner
This is one of the products I originally started using.
It is full of amazing ingredients and it also smells great too. The mist is
basicity a toner that you apply after cleansing your face or throughout the day
to tone hydrate the skin.
Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant
A super gentle exfoliant which comes in a powder form which
needs to be mixed with water before applying. Once mixed with water the unique
Rice-based powder formula activates and creates a foam releasing Papain,
Salicylic Acid and Rice Enzymes that micro-exfoliate dead cells, instantly
leaving skin smoother and brighter. Helping to balance uneven skin pigmentation
and calm the skin, leaving it clear and refreshed.
It’s gentle enough to use daily although I probably use it
maybe 4 times a week. I love how my skin looks and feels after use. So when it
comes to makeup application it's super easy.
Dermalogica Precleanse
When I get
home from work this is the first product I go for, to take off my make-up.
Well, it was
until it until Dermalogica came up with the Precleanse Balm which I will tell
you about a little bit later. Precleanse
is a deep cleansing
oil melts away impurities and make-up from your skin. Part of the Double
Cleanse regimen the water-activated oil cleanser deconstructs layers of excess
sebum (oil), waterproof make-up, environmental pollutants and product build-up
on the skin.
You simply apply
the Precleanse to your unclean face and the watch makeup and all the oils and
dirt which collected throughout the day melt off.
Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel
The final step in Dermalogica’s Double Cleanse regimen the
Special Cleansing Gel is perfect for my combination, spot prone skin as I am
not a fan of heavy cleansers because I which can cause me to break out, even
more, it also doesn’t feel like it dries my skin out at all.
Dermalogica Solar Defense Booster Spf50
I recently started to use this under my make up because it
has SPF in it and it also helps to control my oily skin.
Total Eye Care Eye Cream
I recently started using this attempt to combat the dark
circles around my eyes, it's early days co I can’t report any changes as of yet
however it does give my eyes a brightening boost It also has an SPF which is a
big plus
Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant
I love something that is genuinely going to leave my skin
feeling super soft, and glowing. It is one of those products that is so gentle
on the skin, you don't need a lot of it and after using this I notice a massive difference in the way my make-up
applies and also how my skin feels.
Dermalogica Active Moist
If you are the kind of person that struggles with oily skin,
then this product will be amazing for you as it is light on the skin and leaves
your skin feeling hydrated.
Active Moist formula contains Silk Amino Acids and a unique
combination of plant extracts that help improve skin texture and combat surface
dehydration.
Unfortunately, I have yet to find that one special product
to keep my skin nice and matte throughout the day, however, I have found using
the products I have mentioned have defiantly helped prevent me looking like an
oil slick.
Precleanse Balm
My baby! Similar to the Pre Cleanse this deep cleansing
balm-to-oil melts away impurities and make-up from your skin. Part of the
Double Cleanse regimen which begins with the Pre Cleanse Balm. This
water-activated, balm-to-oil cleanser deconstructs layers of excess sebum
(oil), waterproof make-up, environmental pollutants and product build-up on the
skin. It comes with a Cleansing Mitt to help thoroughly cleanse debris from the
skin’s surface, and aid your recommended Dermalogica Cleanser to deliver more
effective results.
The difference between the Precleanse Balm and the
Precleanse Is the Precleanse Balm is a balm with a consistency similar to Vaseline
and comes with a mitt while the Precleanse is a liquid and does not come with a
mitt
Daily Superfoliant
Similar to
the Daily Microfoliant the Daily Superfoliant is highly-active resurfacer which
helps deliver the smoothest skin ever. Made from activated Binchotan Charcoal
which is great for purifying the skin, and helps to adsorb toxins from deep
within the pores.
Like the
Daily Microfoliant, it foams up after contact with water and is to be gently
massaged into the skin then washed off. However, Daily Microfoliant is gentle
enough to use every day the Daily Superfoliant should only be used 2-3 times a
week
Skin Hydrating Booster
This little
aby is a super Hydrating fluid which helps restore moisture balance and
minimize the appearance of fine dehydration lines and can bed used before, or
mixed with, your moisturizer to help lift moisture levels.
I have also
recently noticed the following product which I would quite like to try:
Dermalogica Sound Sleep Cocoon
Revitalizing treatment gel-cream transforms skin overnight
by optimizing night-time skin recovery. Tamarind Seed Extract creates a
nourishing cocoon of comfort for softer, more hydrated skin while encapsulated,
motion-activated French Lavender Essential Oil (with Sandalwood and Patchouli) work
all night to promote deep, restful sleep for healthier-looking skin by morning.
Other key ingredients include Persian Silk Tree Extract which reduces signs of
skin fatigue and restores vitality while Wu-Zhu-Yu Extract provides visibly
radiant skin by the a.m.
Have you ever tried products from Dermologica? What did you
think?
