I tried it out after I showered and cleansed my face like I do every morning, I applied it to my face and left it on for 15 minutes. After I washed it off I was pleasantly surprised to find that the dryness was gone! I have tried a couple other face exfoliating products and neither of them did anything for the dryness, but the difference with the Dermalogica exfoliant is that it goes deeper than just the surface of your skin. It really gets in there and pulls all the dead skin cells and such out while leaving your skin feeling refreshed afterwards.
The directions do say to not get it near your eye area or on your lips, so if you try this out be careful :) they also say that it may give you a stinging sensation which should go away pretty quick after you've applied it. Personally, I didn't feel it stinging I just felt a "cooling" effect on my skin which felt very nice. What I thought was nice is the sample that I got, you only use half of the product so you can actually get two uses out of one packet, which is great!
You only want to use this product twice a week, as with any exfoliating face product but even more so with this one because it goes a little deeper than the surface of your skin. As I use it more, I'll give you a more in depth review but so far I'm really enjoying it!
Here's the website if you want to check it out and get more information on it: http://www.dermalogica.com/
I actually went on the website this morning to check and see how much this product is full size. For me, its a little expensive. Its $39 for a tube of this product, which if it works and you really like it, I guess its worth it. But holy cow I was surprised at how expensive it is! Anyways, thats my initial review on the Dermalogica Cream Exfoliant. I go to a skin specialist called an esthetician for my eyebrow waxes and she gave me the sample. Having said that, I am in no way, shape or form a "skin specialist" so I would check with your doctor and/or dermatologist to see if this would be ok to use on your skin.
Anyways, thats it for this review! I hope you enjoyed this and I'll be be blogging again soon! Have a great day everyone!
