Cleansing dry skin

If your skin is a little troublesome, finding skin care products which suit your skin and don’t cause further problems is essential, although for some it is a tedious case of trial and error.

Cleansing, toning and moisturising are all essential in forming a good skin care regime, although those with dry skin often feel as though they are falling at the first hurdle.

Dry skin needs to be treated very gently, although one common mistake which many people with this skin type make is using a cleanser which is far too harsh.

A cleanser doesn’t need to leave your skin feeling parched in order to prove that it’s doing its job well, although this is something which a lot of people don’t realise. Of course, nobody wants to put themselves at risk of developing spots and blemishes, although prevention doesn’t have to involve scrubbing at skin with an overly strong cleanser.

Thankfully, by heading straight for Dermalogica, you don’t have to risk committing any dry skin sins during cleansing, as they have the perfect product- Dermalogica Essential Cleansing Solution.

Dermalogica Essential Cleansing Solution effectively removes dirt, surface oil and even makeup. Skin is cleansed without being stripped of essential moisture, and is left feeling fresh, hydrated and conditioned.

If you have dry skin, make Dermalogica Essential Cleansing Solution an essential part of your daily skin care regime.

Don’t let climatic conditions dictate the state of your skin

Skin needs to be protected and treated throughout the year, although this can be extremely difficult when the weather is unpredictable. Changing seasons can also pose problems when it comes to looking after skin properly, particularly if you’re not entirely sure about which kind of products you should be using.

Failing to pay adequate attention to the specific needs of your skin during different times of the year can quickly lead to deterioration of its condition though, and in order to gain full control over the way that your skin looks and feels, you need to ensure that you are fully equipped with the necessary knowledge and necessary products.

Sun protection is one of the most important things which you need to bear in mind- and this is just as important during the winter as it is in summer. So ensure that you’re using a moisturiser, foundation or booster with SPF.

Keeping skin dryness and chapping at bay during the colder months is also really important, although you can easily help to prevent this through the use of a richer moisturiser which doesn’t promote greasiness.

So, don’t let climatic conditions dictate the state of your skin- take charge by making Dermalogica your first and only choice for skin care products.

Zapping those zits

If you regularly find yourself preparing to do battle with spots, it can feel as though your efforts are taking over your whole life, and even the most self assured of individuals can see confidence take a major knock.

Whilst there are lots of different spot treatments to be found in every chemist these days, finding a good quality yet affordable product which also suits your skin can be something of a struggle, and it’s easy to feel as though you’re throwing your precious pounds down the drain.

You don’t need to suffer with spots or an unhealthy bank balance any longer though, as Dermalogica has every product you will ever need to zap those zits and enjoy a much clearer complexion.

Dermalogica understands that spots can present themselves on any type of skin, and this is why there is such an amazing array of products to suit every skin type.

Dermalogica Cleansers are excellent at keeping pores clean and unclogged, and for existing blemishes, products such as the Overnight Clearing Gel, Special Clearing Booster and Concealing Spot Treatment can help to shift spots speedily.

Why bother struggling to zap those zits, when Dermalogica can provide you with an effective and affordable solution?!

Perfecting and protecting your pout

Research has shown that a plump pout can knock years off your age, and whilst more and more people are opting for pricey and risky cosmetic procedures, this certainly isn’t the only option.

Luscious lips can also make a really positive difference to the overall look of your face, although keeping lips soft, smooth and supple can be a little tricky in certain situations.

Lips can become really dry in very hot and extremely cold climatic conditions, and as the weather is becoming colder with each passing day, if you tend to suffer with dehydrated lips during the autumn and winter seasons, now is the perfect time to prepare to take action.

Perfecting your pout- and keeping it looking lovely throughout the year- largely depends on the products which you use, and whilst lipstick and lipgloss can help to keep lips hydrated to some extent, if you suffer with really dry lips you may need a little something extra.

Dermalogica Lip Renewal Complex should take pride of place in your handbag this autumn/ winter season, and is a quick and easy way of getting lips back to their best- and keeping them that way.

Designed for daily use, Dermalogica Lip Renewal Complex provides hydration all day long, and can even be worn under your usual choice of lip makeup.

Arm yourself with this unbeatable product, and you won’t find yourself having to deal with dryness.

Busy lifestyle? No problem!

If you find that you barely have five minutes to yourself on a daily basis, rest assured that you’re not alone, as many of us lead very hectic lifestyles. Attempting to juggle a demanding career, family and also finding the time to socialise can leave you with very little time for much else, although when it comes to looking after your skin, you really do need to make the time.

Setting aside a few mere minutes per day to take care of skin can make all the difference to its condition not only now, but in the future.

A good skin care regime doesn’t necessarily mean spending hours in front of the mirror every day- which is fantastic news for those who have five minutes rather than five hours to get ready in the morning.

Take your time to choose a suitable cleanser, toner and moisturiser- which will form the crux of your daily routine. Dermalogica boasts an unbeatable range of products for every skin type, so you won’t need to settle for anything less than the best.

Even skin with additional needs can be dealt with swiftly- and whether you need to control excess oil, breakouts or extreme dryness, there’s a Dermalogica product just waiting to be snapped up.

Dermalogica products are quick yet effective to use- perfect for the unbelievably busy individual.

Preparing your skin for that important event

If you have a big social event in the pipeline, you’re certain to want to look your very best, and after you’ve found the perfect outfit and decided how you’re going to style your hair and wear your makeup, you should then turn your attention to your skin.

Whatever the current condition of your skin, there are many products on the market which can help to make it look even better.

Whether you have 4 weeks or 4 days before your big event, it’s never too early or too late to get on the right path to gorgeously glowing skin.

Unfortunately, none of us can never predict when a spot or blemish will decide to make an appearance, although you can help to minimise the chances of this happening right before your big event by ensuring that you’re using an effective cleanser and products which don’t block your pores.

Skin which is dry or prematurely aging can be given an almighty boost through the use of Dermalogica Skin Renewal Booster- which will help to give skin a whole new lease of life.

Investing in one of Dermalogica’s fab face masques can also help to get skin looking its very best- and there’s a masque out there for just about every skin type.

A little preparation and TLC can go a long way in skin looking its best yet when that important event arrives.

Controlling excess oil day and night

Trying to control excessively oily skin is no laughing matter, and whilst it may not sound like much of an issue for those who don’t have to deal with it, feeling that your skin looks far less than matte can be a real confidence breaker.

For those who suffer with excessively oily skin, keeping a handle on the situation can be an issue whatever the time of day. Whether you’re struggling to control oil in the office, or unwanted shine during a big night out, you need to make sure that every product which you’re using on your skin is helping to keep excess oil at bay rather than contributing to it.

For the ladies, ensuring that makeup products such as foundation are oil-free is vital, as heavily oil based products can play a huge part in skin becoming greasy very quickly.

Similarly, swapping your thick, heavy moisturiser for a lighter oil-free alternative can make a really positive difference, and there are many moisturisers which can provide the skin with hydration without leaving an oily residue.

For the ultimate in oil control though, Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion is amazing, and helps to keep skin matte without drying it out.

If keeping skin shine- free wasn’t enough, Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion also helps to minimise the risks of future break-outs, so it’s little surprise that it’s an indispensible product for so many men and women alike.

Keep oil under control whatever the time of day with Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion.

A good skin care regime doesn’t need to take hours

We’re all aware that we need to make an effort when it comes to looking after skin. Open any glossy magazine and you’re likely to be faced with article upon article explaining the importance of cleansing, toning and moisturising , plus a list of often expensive items which promise to help in your quest to achieve the most beautiful skin possible.

This has led to many people hitting the High Street and arming themselves with all manner of different products- which can make for a very lengthy skin care regime.

An efficient skin care regime doesn’t have to take hours out of your life and pounds out of your pocket though, as there are lots of great Dermalogica products which are quick to apply and quick to work- and many simultaneously offer several benefits without the need to use lots of different products.

Whatever your skin type, you can rest assured that Dermalogica will have products to suit, and whether you’re looking for a simple cleanser, toner or moisturiser, or products which will help to give your skin a bit of a boost every now and again, trust Dermalogica to help you to look after your skin quickly and effectively.

Dermalogica Active Moist- a fantastic all-rounder

Moisturiser is undoubtedly one of the most important aspects of any skin care regime, and one which shouldn’t be overlooked in any circumstance.

However, with so many different moisturisers to choose from nowadays, picking one which can provide the skin with sufficient hydration but without promoting any negative side effects such as greasiness, can feel like a long and expensive process.

It really doesn’t have to be though, and if you’re on the lookout for a new moisturiser which will help to keep skin looking and feeling fresh throughout the day, give Dermalogica Active Moist a whirl.

Dermalogica Active Moist is perfect for day to day use, and makes for a great make up base- particularly for those who find that their foundation ‘slides’ off through the use of oil-based moisturisers.

Add Dermalogica Active Moist to your skin care regime and enjoy hydrated, smooth skin every single day.

Don’t neglect skin on your girl’s weekend away

When you’ve made a real effort to look after your skin throughout the week, you shouldn’t let all of your hard work go to waste once the weekend arrives.

This is often a lot easier said than done though, especially if you have a big party weekend with the girls planned. When partying is at the top of your list of priorities, it’s all too easy to neglect your skin a little and promise yourself that you will get back on track on Monday.

By Monday though, it could be too little too late, and you could find yourself starting the working week with spots or blemishes.

Even if you’re stuck for space in your suitcase due to the endless outfits and pairs of shoes which you’ve packed, there’s no excuse for failing to pack your skin care essentials, as there are lots of little travel size products out there which will take up far less room than your newest pair of platforms.

Dermalogica Skin Kits are great for taking on your travels, and they come in a handy little case which holds all of the products safely. These kits are available to suit all skin types, and contain everything you need to maintain your skin care regime and keep it looking stunning throughout your fun weekend away.

Dealing with the effects of premature skin aging doesn’t mean a trip to the cosmetic surgeon

The signs of premature skin ageing can creep up on us when we least expect it, and noticing that a fine line has appeared where skin used to be practically perfect can be a bit of a shock to the system!

There are many factors which can contribute to premature skin ageing, with some of the most common being sun exposure, dehydration and a poor diet.

Thankfully, not only can you address all of these issues quickly and take the necessary action, you can also kick those fine lines back into touch.

Combating fine lines doesn’t mean a costly trip to the cosmetic surgeon for a hefty helping of Botox though, and you can wage war on them from the comfort of your own home provided you use the best products for the job.

Dermalogica AGE Smart Starter Kit is the perfect weapon in your fight against premature skin ageing, and contains a month’s worth of products which will get you on the right road to revamping your skin- leaving it looking much smoother and firmer.

Turn to Dermalogica before you turn to the surgeon’s knife- it could turn out to be the best decision you’ve ever made.

Why you should always make time to tone


We’ve said it a thousand times before, and there’s no doubt that we’ll say it a thousand times again- the importance of cleansing, toning and moisturising morning and night is absolutely vital. Whatever your age and skin type, making sure you follow a strict skin care regime is imperative in keeping your skin looking its best for as long as possible.

If you start to neglect your skin care regime, you can rest assured that it won’t be long before your skin starts to suffer. Not only are you leaving yourself susceptible to spots and blemishes, you are also putting your skin at risk from showing premature signs of ageing.

When it comes to their skin care regime, some people attempt a half- hearted job and just opt to cleanse or moisturise. This is not sufficient though, and toning is also very important.

Many people are confused about the significance of toning, and are not sure of the part that it plays. After cleansing, the skin can be stripped of essential moisture- leaving skin feeling a little taut. This is where using a toner, such as the fantastic Dermalogica Multi-Active Toner can help. The toner rehydrates the skin, leaving it feeling more refreshed, and also provides the perfect base for moisturiser- allowing it to work to its full potential.

Dermalogica cleansers, toners and moisturisers work in perfect harmony with each other, and you’ll be surprised at just how much of a positive difference toning can have.

Removing your eye makeup gently


From mascara to eye-liner to eye shadow, lots of women wear eye make-up nowadays, and it’s a quick and easy way of transforming your look a little without having to spend ages in front of the mirror.

When it comes to eye make-up these days, you’re absolutely spoilt for choice and you can buy products in just about every colour under the sun. Whether you’re looking for waterproof, anti-smudge or products for sensitive eyes, you really don’t have to look too far to find them.

However, it’s one thing putting your make-up on properly, but taking it off is an entirely different ball game altogether!

Some eye make-up products can be extremely stubborn to take off- and those whose patience isn’t their strong point are often tempted to scrub at the eye area in order to shift products quickly.

However, this is the worst thing that you can do- as the skin around the eyes is extremely delicate, and rough scrubbing could lead to skin getting damaged and ageing prematurely.

This makes it essential to use a gentle product, such as Dermalogica Soothing Eye Make Up Remover. This is an amazing product which effectively shifts eye make-up without being harsh.

In addition to removing make-up, it also really soothes and moisturises the area- leaving it feeling extremely refreshed and hydrated.

Beautiful bikini body skin


Even though you never know when the next volcano might erupt, if you’re going on holiday in the coming months, you shouldn’t let this stop your preparations in the quest to be the ultimate beach babe!

There are always those who start to panic a week before they’re due to go away- having left those all important preparations until the very last minute! To make sure this isn’t you, and in order to feel as confident as possible when you’re soaking up those gorgeous rays on a beautiful beach, you need to start taking action now.

One of the main causes of a confidence crisis is the condition of the skin on the body, and it’s no surprise. After months and months of being hidden away under numerous layers, skin may be looking a little worse for wear.

Thankfully, it’s easy to get it back into peak condition and smooth enough to sustain a stunning suntan.

Use Dermalogica The Ultimate Buffing Cloth in conjunction with Dermalogica Conditioning Body Wash during a bath or shower, for supple and soft skin. It’s always important to moisturise the entire body afterwards, as hot water can strip skin of essential moisture. Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream works wonders on all skin types, and will provide much needed rehydration.

Now, all that’s left to do is go for a shopping spree for those all important bikinis!

Be gentle with your skin


With so many skin care products available on the market today, picking the right products can sometimes prove to be a bit of a difficult task.

However, it’s really important that you choose the best products for your skin type, otherwise you could be doing more damage than good.

When it comes to skin care, some people are under the false impression that in order to get their skin as clean as possible, they need to use products that contain all manner of harsh ingredients. This is simply not true though, and even though these kinds of unsuitable products can leave the skin feeling really dried out, many people think that this is proof that it is working effectively.

The truth is, if you’re treating your skin like this on a regular basis, it probably won’t take long for the effects to start showing- and dry, flaky skin which is susceptible to the premature signs of ageing isn’t anyone’s idea of a good look!

This is the reason why it’s so important to choose products that are kind to your skin- particularly if it is quite sensitive anyway.

Dermalogica have a great range of products that will not only leave your skin looking and feeling rehydrated, but will also help to combat pesky premature signs of ageing.

For the ultimate gentle cleanser, you should definitely consider giving Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel a whirl. This fab foaming gel is soap and fragrance free, yet is still effective giving a thorough cleanse.

Try following up with Dermalogica Active Moist, which also feels light and gentle on skin.

Be kind to skin now, and it’s sure to be kind to you over the years.

Control oil and regain your skin confidence


It’s amazing how even the most harmless of skin conditions can have such an effect on your confidence, and for those who suffer with oily skin, keeping it under control can feel like a 24/7 battle.

Many people suffer with oily skin, and taming it on a day to day basis can be a real struggle. Excessively oily skin can affect people of all ages, men and women, and more often than not, there is not a great deal that you can do to change it.

However, there’s no reason why you should let oily skin take over your life and get you down, and by adhering to a few steps and using the right products, you can make a significant difference.

It’s important that you try and use products which are specifically designed for oily skin, as using those which are designed for other skin types could make skin even shinier.

Although it can be all to tempting to skimp on the moisturiser, this is a major no-no, as even oily skin needs to be kept properly hydrated.

Thankfully there are some fantastic daily moisturisers for oily skin on the market nowadays- with Dermalogica Active Moist being a staple part of many people’s skin care regimes.

Another fab product that has received rave reviews for its great oil control properties is Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion- which helps to keep shine at bay throughout the day without drying skin out.

Rehydration is really easy


Many people suffer from dry skin, and as there are so many factors that can contribute to skin feeling drab and dehydrated, it really is no big surprise.

Climate, illness, diet and lack of a proper skin care regime are all key culprits in making skin a little parched. Not only can dehydrated skin feel awful, leaving skin in bad condition and failing to treat it properly will also start to make it look less than lovely.

Applying makeup to dry skin can be a nightmare, and there’s a very high chance that any makeup that you do apply will look flaky and uneven- which is never the best look!

However, if you do suffer from dry skin there’s no reason to panic, as it’s relatively quick and easy to get it looking and feeling silky smooth again in no time at all.

Apart from identifying and addressing the issue of what exactly is causing your skin woes, you also need to make sure that you invest in the right products to tackle it.

Dermalogica have an unbeatable range of products that are designed to treat even the most traumatised of skin, and their Multivitamin Power Recovery Masque is the perfect place to start.

Trust Dermalogica to make skin rehydration quick and easy.
