Review – Dermalogica Overnight Retinol Repair

Trialling the Dermalogica Overnight Retinol Repair has been a bit out of the ordinary for me.  The reason I say this is that when I initially read about how to use the product and how powerful the ingredients are I wasn't really sure it was for me. The cream contains 0.5% retinol which is the… Continue reading Review – Dermalogica Overnight Retinol Repair

Dermalogica Body Therapy Essentials

For this holiday season, I heard that has Dermalogica has six limited edition sets on offer. As I'd been having some time at home where I hadn't really felt well enough to focus on makeup and skin care (I must have really been sick right?!)

Launch – Dermalogica Overnight Retinol Repair

If you've been following me for a while you'll be expecting photos from a launch that includes glasses of prosecco and cupcakes or cute canapes. Well, I'm sorry to disappoint but on this occasion those grumpy London cabbies decided to stage a protest in the Strand (no relation!) that clogged up the whole of central… Continue reading Launch – Dermalogica Overnight Retinol Repair

Review – Dermalogica Sheer Tint

I've not really been a fan of tinted moisturisers in the past, preferring to use my favourite serum, moisturiser, primer and foundation combination to give me a fair bit of coverage. Even though Dermalogica never fails to excel at skin care I wasn't holding out much hope that I could achieve the look that I wanted from this… Continue reading Review – Dermalogica Sheer Tint

Review – Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Masque

It's taken me a while to get around to trying out this Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Masque.  I picked it up at the beginning of May when I attended a Dermalogica and Sodastream event. Truth be told I'm a but rubbish at using treatments. I mean I'm really good at cleansing and moisturising and using sun protection as part… Continue reading Review – Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Masque

Dermalogica & Sodastream Event – Working together to hydrate the nation

When ever I get an invite to a Dermalogica event I know I'm in for a treat. I've said before that I love how they think with their "this is not a beauty product, this is an investment in your skin" attitude. So when I heard about their collaboration with Sodastream - well I just think… Continue reading Dermalogica & Sodastream Event – Working together to hydrate the nation

A few weeks back I told you about a great Dermalogica Event that I went to. One of the super items I picked up there was the newly launched Dermalogica UltraCalming Redness Relief Primer SPF20.
