Dermalogica in Detail
Dermalogica is a simple, serious and unique skin care system that delivers effective results in the minimum amount of time. Dermalogica is designed as a professionally recommended program of salon treatments and maintenance products, without complicated, outdated rituals. Remarkably effective, Dermalogica is used and recommended by professional skin care salons, spas and medical centers around the world.

The Dermalogica skin care system was researched and developed by The International Dermal Institute, considered to be the foremost training center for postgraduate professional skin care and body therapy. Dermalogica was created in response to the professional demand for highly active products that work in a simple and effective manner. Dermalogica is only available in appointed skin care centers by recommendation of a qualified skin care therapist.

THE DERMALOGICA DIFFERENCES
The unique approach to skin care pioneered by Dermalogica is based on several important differences between Dermalogica and any other skin care product.

NO MINERAL OIL
Mineral Oil is a petroleum by-product which leaves a greasy film on the skin surface. Dermalogica uses lightweight, natural vegetable oils as alternative emollients.

NO LANOLIN
Lanolin is a wax derivative of sheep wool, and can be allergy-causing and comedogenic.Dermalogica uses aromatic essential oils and silk proteins as moisturizing agents.

NO ARTIFICIAL COLOURS
Artificial colours in products can cause skin irritation and breakouts. Dermalogica does not use artificial colour. The natural ingredients determine the final appearance of any Dermalogica product.

NO ARTIFICIAL FRAGRANCE
Companies add artificial fragrance to products to improve their smell. These can cause allergies and skin sensitivity. Dermalogica allows the herbal extracts and aromatic plant oils in the formula to determine the products unique fragrance.

NO S.D. ALCOHOL
Specially Denatured Alcohols are used in many products to artificially dry the skin surface. This strips natural moisture from the skin and leads to excess dryness. Dermalogica uses naturally astringent herbal extracts and oil-absorbing clays to help treat excess oiliness in problem skins.

NO FORMALDEHYDE
Formaldehyde is a common preservative in many products. It can cause dryness and irritation. Dermalogica preserves its products with alternative preservative systems to ensure the safety of the products throughout their usage.

NON-COMEDOGENIC
Products may contain comedogenic ingredients, which cause breakouts and acne. Dermalogica products are designed to be non-comedogenic, and are suitable for acne-prone skin conditions. This is why they are recommended by dermatologists and used in their medical practices.

CONTAMINATION FREE PACKAGING
Products that are packaged in jars are easily contaminated with bacteria from the hands and environment. Dermalogica packages its products in the most hygenic containers, to avoid contact contamination during use.

Dermalogica is proud of its commitment to safe and effective skin care products and welcomes your comments and suggestions for further improvements. Please contact Dermalogica's Research and Development centre at the Corporate Office in California.
