Dermalogica Active Moisturizer — 

In Utah I was at the beauty parlor. The hairdresser gave me several samples. I loved the Dermlogica Age Smart super rich repair. It was amazing! Next I tried the Dermalogica Active Moisturizer which comes in several sizes starting from $26.00. It is less money than Age Smart for a reason!

Dermalogica Active Moisturizer is lightweight, sheer, and easy to apply because it absorbs right into the skin. It is said that it "actively combats surface dehydration." That might be the problem. For those of you with slight dryness Dermalogica Active Moisturizer might be great. It is not tested on animals so that is a plus but it is still more expensive than many other moisturizers.

It has nice ingredients such as plant extracts, botanical astringent of lavender, mallow, and cucumber. 

My Experience

I should state up front that my skin is quite dry and I tend not to use oil free products because I need the oil. Still I had a rash which you can see in the pictures and thought Dermalogica Active Moisturizer would help a bit even if not as much as the Age Smart. I applied it for days and nights with absolutely no results. My skin never cleared up with this product. Over time the rash has gone away but I would not consider using Dermalogica Active Moisturizer again. 

 

The pictures are of my skin during my treatments.

 

 

NOTE: the reviewer indicated that they received a sample of Dermalogica Active Moisturizer

My daughter suggested I use a primer I think it's called under my foundation. ??

I have extremely dry skin too and it is very sensitive. I am always looking for moisturizers, creams (not lotions) that promise to hydrate skin.
