If like me, your sensitive skin can feel dry, dehydrated and
in need of some serious TLC during the cold winter months then you’ll be very
happy to meet Dermalogica’s two new hero products.
Allow me to introduce you to their Calm Water Gel and
Barrier Defense Booster, both of which are housed within their Ultra Calming
range.
Having sensitive skin no longer needs to be an issue when
trying to tackle your skin concerns thanks to Dermalogica’s Ultra Calming range
which has been designed specifically for sensitive skin.
The new Calm Water Gel (£44.50) is as beautiful and
comforting as its name suggests.
This feather-light, weightless moisturiser effortlessly hydrates
and nourishes your dry, sensitive skin.
It features a dual Hyaluronic Acid technology which allows
it to work in different skin surface layers offering superior hydration and
locking in moisture where it’s most needed.
Elements of Apple Fruit Extract and
Glycerin help to hydrate and soften your skin as well as preventing any
additional dryness while Cactus Pear Extract helps to soothe sentitivity and
imparts water-binding properties to help to support a healthy moisture balance.
Oh and plus, it smells beautiful. Think delicate, calm and
relaxing lavender. Simply Bliss.
The texture of the product is that of a super lightweight
gel and it is absorbed almost instantly into my skin leaving behind no trace
other than soft, hydrated and refreshed skin.
It is a gorgeous product that is perfect for skin like mine,
which is both sensitive and prone to being a tad oily. It is wonderfully light
on your skin, leaves no oily residue and despite its lightweight texture,
manages to sooth, calm and nourish even the driest areas of my skin.
The new Barrier Defense Booster (£69.50) has launched alongside this gel as while it is a product
that can be used alone, it is also fabulous at enriching and complimenting your
pre-existing moisturisers.
This rich, concentrated oil has been created to soothe,
nourish, moisturise and restore balance to your dry, sensitive skin.
It features a triple defence complex which nourishes your
skin, relieves dryness and reinforces your skins barrier integrity against
future irritation while Squalane locks in moisture and oat oil helps to combat
sensitivity.
The oil can be used in one of two ways; either prior to your
moisturiser or it can be mixed with your moisturiser for those times when your
skin need a little extra nourishment and boost.
Like the gel, the oil managed to be both rich and nourishing
yet lightweight and non greasy.
It possesses the same soft, addictive and calming scent as
the Calm Water Gel, making it the perfect partner for the gel for those of you
who may find they need a little extra nourishment.
I personally love using the Barrier Defense Booster oil of a
night time as a special treat for my skin overnight.
I dispense 6-10 drops into the palm of my hand before
rubbing my hands together and gently patting the oil over my face and neck.
Once it has been absorbed I pop my night cream on top and come
morning my skin is feeling nourished, soft and looking beautiful.
It is a great little product for allowing you to customise
your moisturiser depending on your skins needs as they change from day to day.
If you suffer from dry, sensitive skin I cannot recommend
this duo more highly.
Dermalogica’s Calm Water Gel
and Barrier Defence Booster is available now from their website where
they cost £44.50 and £69.50 respectively.
