Dermalogica?

daiz519 · Dooney & Bourke

I use it on and off--I'm a product junkie and love trying new stuff. But I do like Dermalogica--especially Active moist. I have oily skin and this moisturizer is light enough so that it doesn't make me feel greasy but still has plenty of moisture. A little goes a long way so I buy the large tube and it lasts me forever.

I've also used Anti Bac skin wash. I think it works but then my skin gets used to it. So I buy a bottle, finish it, then switch to another cleanser. But eventually I come back to it. Right now I'm using Mario Badescu Enzyme cleansing gel which I really really like and it's pretty cheap.

I tried the special cleansing gel when I was going through a dry flaky skin period and didn't want salycilic acid in my cleanser. I liked it because it was strong enough to remove my makeup but not so harsh that it made the flaking worse.

I've also used the spray toner, can't remember the name of it. Love the way it makes my skin feel--clean and it smells fresh.

I'm using the medicated clearing gel and I also really like this. I believe the bottle was about $33 but I've had it forever, I only apply a small amount to my breakouts and it really helps.

Oops, forgot I've also tried the Dermal Clay Cleanser. Have to say I didn't like this cleanser much. It wasn't cleansing my skin enough to remove the makeup.

I think that's all that I have used, right now I'm in search of a moisturizer with spf that doesn't make me feel greasy...if you know of any let me know.

I started using it about five years ago before my wedding b/c I was getting facials and that is what they used. I really like it because the products don't smell strange, seem to work and last for awhile. I like the daily microfoliant (it lasts a long time and leaves your face feeling clean and tight) and the multi active toner and the clay cleanser. they have some great travel starter packs with everything in them so you can try before you buy. I now supplement b/t Dermalogica and Mario Badescu and love them both. it was something like below but with a few more products.

I have very sensitive skin and find this is one of the only lines that i can use.

I use daily microfoliant (if i had to choose one product to use from this line, it would be this product). It is very expensive but worth it.

I use intensive moisture balance and intensive eye repair for the day. I keep on-hand for the summer the ultra sensitive sunblock with is slightly tinted and wonderful. It does not irritate my skin at all. I also use one of their vitamin creams but i cannot remember which one.

I use their hydro active mineral salts, exfoliating scrub, body hydrating cream and stress relief treatment oil.

Obviously, i really like their products.

I won some Dermalogica products in a Lucky Breaks giveaway. There is one product I LOVE, it's an eye gel. I have found that it works wonders on zits (not its intended use, but hey, whatever works!). It's packed with vitamins and it helps heal the skin quickly.

I don't remember the names of the other stuff I got. One was some vitamin capsules (sp??) you use as a moisturizer on your face, and another was lotion with sunscreen for your hands.

I use the dermal clay cleanser and like it. I felt the antibac face wash just didnt do it for me. It is not a miracle product, but the best I have found so far. I have tried a lot of the other stuff too, but not stuck with it.
