Review : Dermalogica Gentle Cream Exfoliant


This mask comes with a 75ml/2.5 fl oz tube, just like any other Dermalogica products a little goes a long way. Dermalogica promotes this as 'super-smoothing masque' as it contains lactic and alpha hydroxy acids to chemically exfoliate dead skin cells to improve skin texture.

This mask smells very Dermalogica, very high tech, I would even say that I smell the lactic acid (hmmm?) It has a creamy white texture, you have to leave it 10-15 mins on cleansed skin and remove it with lukewarm water.


I think that the mask does deliver what it promises to deliver: a very gentle chemical exfoliation. It's perfect for those who have sensitive and/or dry skin, it's very unlikely to aggravate any skin problem you may have. If you use it on regular basis, you will see the difference in your skin texture (in combination with other Dermalogica products)

However, if your skin is more rough, to the oily side and you want to use this mask to help with your acne pigmentation, you might not be too impressed with this as it's too gentle. In such case I find Alpha-H Liquid Gold Mask to be more effective for pigmentation for rough skins, like mine.

Review : Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Masque

This is quick review for Dermalogica's Skin Hydrating Mask. As you know doesn't matter what kind of skin you have, you need to hydrate is as much as possible and there are so many different masks you could try which have different combinations.

I, personally try to use this mask twice a week after I remove my clay mask. This hydrating mask comes with a 40 Euros price tag, and Dermalogica is a very good brand. Therefore I have high expectations but the mask fails to deliver those expectations.




It is a gel like, transparent formula that you put on your face (even around the eyes) and remove it after 10-15 mins.

Don't get me wrong, this mask does deliver what it needs to deliver but not with the quality you'd expect from Dermalogica. I think there are much better and cheaper options than this one. I don't see myself repurchasing this again.
When I'll be finished (god knows it will take a long time) I want to get full size of either Sisley's Express Flower Gel (gel express aux fleurs) or Origins'
Drink Up Intensive Mask.
