Dermalogica products have always been formulated without common irritants and ingredients that could cause breakouts, including lanolin, SD alcohol, mineral oil, and artificial colors. The packaging is simple and understated and looks practical rather than luxurious.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dermalogica skincare products are formulated with a combination of synthetic and natural ingredients. The brand uses evidence-based synthetics, such as vitamin C derivatives, hyaluronic acid, AHAs, BHAs, peptides, and silicones. But you may have noticed that this brand also emphasizes naturally derived ingredients, such as soap bark extract, seed oils, and fruit enzymes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One thing to keep in mind before trying Dermalogica skincare products is that nearly all of the products contain fragrance ingredients. For example, the Dermalogica Active Moist formula contains citral, linalool, limonene, lemon peel extract, bergamot fruit extract, and more. So why is the fragrance a problem in skincare? Let\u2019s look at the science.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All fragrance ingredients (whether natural or synthetic) impart scent through a volatile reaction, and this natural reaction almost always causes a sensitizing reaction on skin. In fact, according to a 2016 publication in the scholarly journal <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dermatitis<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, nearly 80 essential oils have caused contact allergy. Even if you don\u2019t have a full-blown reaction to the ingredient, the damage may still be occurring every day. Ultimately, this can cause mild problems for your skin in the short term and worse problems in the long term.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where Are Dermalogica Skin Care Products Sold?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dermalogica skincare products are sold on the brand\u2019s website and online retailers including Blue Mercury, Sephora, the Dermstore, Ulta, and Nordstrom. There are also several Dermalogica flagship stores around the world, which also offer skincare treatments and analysis.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is The Dermalogica Return Policy?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dermalogica offers free returns for products purchased within the past 30 days. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is Dermalogica Cruelty-Free?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dermalogica is cruelty free and the products are officially Leaping Bunny Certified. Leaping Bunny Certification means Dermalogica skincare products are free of animal testing at every stage of product development.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dermalogica Reviews<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dermalogica has been around for decades and has racked up plenty of media coverage and awards. The Daily Microfoliant, a rice-based powder with salicylic acid, won a 2019 Allure Reader\u2019s Choice Award while the Resurfacing Daily Superfoliant nabbed a 2018 Glamour Beauty Award. The Phyto Replenish Oil, which helps boost the skin\u2019s protective barrier, won an O-ward from Oprah\u2019s magazine in 2018. Other products have received write-ups in just about every major women\u2019s and men\u2019s magazine, including InStyle, More, Details, Marie Claire, Redbook and Shape.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The brand also has its celebrity fans. The actress Patricia Clarkson told The New York Times she\u2019s a fan of Dermalogica Super Rich Repair, the Multivitamin Exfoliator and the Redness Relief. January Jones told People magazine she uses Dermalogica\u2019s Sleep Cocoon, an evening gel cream. When the actress Amy Adams is wearing a lot of makeup for work, as she relayed to Allure magazine, she reaches for Dermalogica\u2019s Ultracalming Cleanser.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many Dermalogica reviews on Sephora.
