Dermatica Ultralight Recovery Moisturiser 30ml

Product Information

Aside from azelaic acid, this cream also contains squalane and a trio of ceramides which moisturise the skin and keep the skin barrier healthy.

It’s a common misconception that acne can only affect you in your teenage years — it can continue, or reappear, at any time during adulthood, regardless of whether or not you grew up with clear skin. In other words, it's a superb moisturizer that makes your skin nice and smooth, without being heavy or greasy. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Because squalane boosts hydration in the skin, it also comes with plenty of benefits: it is an antioxidant and can help fight free radicals and skin damage.It contains key ingredients to help soothe and protect the skin which is super important when using actives to prevent damaging the skin barrier and causing irritation with the inclusion of ceramides, niacinamide, panthenol, vitamin E and hyaluronic acid. Originally, Dermatica’s ready-made product range was made up of a cleansing gel, a moisturiser and an over-the-counter azelaic acid cream. At the same time, this vitamin C derivative has been shown in studies to be effective in reducing acne, blemishes and clogged pores.

Stress causes increased levels of the hormone cortisol in your body, so we often see flares of acne during difficult times. Your skin uses Vitamin C to produce collagen and collagen production plays a role in having a strong skin barrier and plump skin. Although we cannot stop aging, there are ingredients that have been shown to slow the process: retinoids, antioxidants, and some peptides. An extremely common multitasker ingredient that gives your skin a nice soft feel (emollient) and gives body to creams and lotions.

I have applied this after Soolantra (waiting the half an hour for the Soolantra to dry), and found it is pleasant to apply and soothing. It is very common in gel-type formulas that also contain an oil-phase as well as in cleansers as it also works with most cleansing agents (unlike a lot of other thickeners). Product description Dermatica's Ultralight Moisturiser is specially designed by dermatologists and formulation scientists to deeply hydrate your skin while improving your skin barrier function. Anything that rubs against your skin can cause it; wearing hats and visors, athletic pads or helmets, and even subconsciously resting your chin or cheek on your hand for long periods of time.
