Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant

I have used up a couple of full sized product and I have also recieved a few large sample sizes as well. The small sample sizes are great for travel and last a fair while as well. The exfoliant is a dry white powder- I expected it to scratch the skin off like most exfoliants but I was wrong! It is an enzyme exfoliant so it dissolves the dead skin away- no scratchy exfolianting here which is much better for your face. I usually wash my face, rinse and while wet massage a couple of shakes over my face. I use it daily when I'm feeling congested or just 2/3 times a week if my skin is good.

I was so excited to receive this in the top rated beauty box. I have sensitive skin and I am prone to rosacea on my cheeks so I can be quite wary of trying exfoliants so the Dermalogica 13g travel size is a prefect introduction.

The microfoliant is packaged in the typical Dermalogica white container with a grey screw off lid. Underneath the lid are two rather large holes for getting the product out but be careful as it can be quite easy to tip too much out.

I use this in the mornings after I have cleansed my face. I tip out a small amount of powder onto the palms of my hands and rub together to form a nice lather. ( Hands need to be wet first) I then massage onto my face and rinse off. It’s surprising how creamy its texture it is, not at all harsh like some other exfoliants. I have not experienced any burning sensations or nasty reactions from using this.

I find even with my sensitive skin using this everyday so far has not caused any problems with increased redness or sensitivity. I have noticed that my moisturiser absorb better into my skin and my skin tone actually looks more even and brighter even after only a week of use.

I think I will cut back to using this 2/3 times a week as it is rather expensive and I want to make it last as long as possible. I definitely recommend this product.

This interesting product came in the BBBE Top Rated box.

It comes in a cute little pot like a pepper shaker.

I had to read the instructions because I'd never used a powdered microfoliant before and didn't really know what one was!

So, I shake the product into my hand after cleansing, rub together to lather, and wash around my face with it. It lathers quite well. The beads are small and sparse, so it doesn't irritate, but gently exfoliates.

I like the smell, subtle but minty fresh.

After use, my skin feels clean and soft with no sensitivity, and no dryness. It is certainly gentle enough to use every day, as it says in the blurb. It also says it will leave skin clear and refreshed, and I feel it does this rather well.

I'm not sure I would purchase it at $30 for 13g, but it is a good product and I'm glad I have some, so maybe I would! I would certainly recommend it as an exfoliant and brightener to anyone with sensitive skin.

Like a lot of other lucky ladies I received this in the top rated BBBE. I have never tried any Dermalogica products before but I have heard great things about some products so if course it was the first thing I tried from the box. I love exfoliators but I was told I should only use them once maybe twice per week as you can do more damage than good to your skin. So when I read the back of the bottle it's safe to use it daily I was more than excited.

The small white bottle has a grey screw top lid the top of the bottle has two holes where the product comes out. You do have to be careful as it does seem to pour out pretty quickly.

I shake out a small 10 cent coin sized amount and mix in a drop of water so it looks like a paste, then start scrubbing my face. I love how this scrub feels rather gentle on my skin. When it comes into contact with more water it does almost lather slightly. I don't notice any real scents with this exfoliant.

My skin is on the drier side so I am always sceptical with new products, praying it won't dry my skin out any more and will gently buff away the dry skin. And my oh my how pleasantly surprised I was afterwards.

I pat dried my skin and didn't even need to take a close up look of my skin, the results were very noticeable my skin looked glowing and it felt super soft. I was in love. Since receiving this I have used it nightly without fail and still can't believe how nice my skin looks and feels. I am almost out of this but I have been stalking the Dermalogica website ready to place an order as I couldn't imagine my life without this exfoliant now it really is magic, i love how fresh my skin looks after using it. I can see why this was in the top rated box!!

I got this microfoliant in one of the lovely BBBEs and finished it recently. It lasted me a good few months or so even with almost daily use, despite being the smallest bottle size, so that's a plus. I found it to be an effective microfoliant without being harsh on the skin, and that's what we all want from a skin product, right? Too many exfoliation products are overly harsh on the skin and ultimately do more damage in the long run. My skin was always refreshed-looking afterwards, without being too squeaky clean (a sign that the skin has also been stripped of important oils). I also had no dryness or breakouts while using this product, which is another good sign. My only issue with it was that it was a bit awkward and messy to use in the shower. This was because I'd have to shake some out on to my palm to mix it, which meant I couldn't get the lid back on the tub while mixing and applying (unlike with other cleansers and exfoliants, where I apply straight to my face, and before massaging, can get the lid back on, or better yet, it's got an easy to snap close lid, or no lid at all, just a pump....). This meant that the couple of times it got knocked over in the shower before I'd been able to screw the lid back on, some spilled. Very annoying. So it would be good to see a better bottle/dispensing system for it so none goes to waste. Otherwise, fantastic product.

I received a sample sachet of Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant from Dermalogica and I was quite surprised at how gentle this exfoliator is.

When I read the words "daily exfoliator", I did wonder how gentle this was going to be. The exfoliator is in a dry powder form that you mix with a little water, in the palm of your hand, to make a paste before applying it to your skin.

The fine, white powder was really easy to use in the shower and the paste lathered up nicely, as more water was added, after exfoliating my skin. It rinsed away cleanly and left my skin feeling surprisingly smooth after being the most gentle exfoliator I have ever used.

I'm still not sure that I would use an exfoliator daily, no matter how gentle, as too much exfoliation tends to aggravate my oily skin. Another negative is the price. I can't see myself spending that much on an exfoliator that I possibly can't keep in the shower (I don't know how well the powder would stand up to being kept in a steamy shower) and if it's stored elsewhere, I'd probably forget to use it.

It's definitely the most gentle exfoliator that I've ever come across. I would definitely recommend it to those with sensitive skin or acne-prone skin, but I don't see myself purchasing a full sized bottle to use on my own skin, due to the issues I raised before.

This stuff was like heaven on the skin, made skin feel polished . Only problem was if water got into the container it went like clay. Pricey.

I love this product - it was recommended to me by a friend after I told her I have small bumps on my skin. I started using this and it’s a gentle, yet super effective exfoliator that isn’t harsh on my skin. You can definitely feel the difference in your skin after a few uses (maybe 2-3 uses).

I used this product personally and professionally for about two years but I just found it a wee bit too drying, and far too harsh for every day use. I don't recommend anyone to exfoliate daily as it dehydrates and then makes your skin oilier. I found with this particular product that even just using it every couple of days it was very drying. You're meant to mix it up with lots of water so all the grits dissolve and just the enzymes work your skin, I did just that but I still found it drying. I never sold one professional unit..

This product is amazing!! It scrubs your skin in such a gentle way, it makes your skin feel so soft and clean. I have quite sensitive skin and this product doesn't irritate it at all! Cult product right here.
