Great Product!!! Worth It!,
I was having a terrible time with my skin this past summer…moved to a humid, sticky, hot new place and my skin, which is already normally oily, was not reacting well at all. These products, recommended by my fabulous, wizard of an aesthetician, helped turn my skin around better than any product that I’ve ever used before…and I’ve used a lot! definitely pricey, but for once, pricey beauty/skincare products that aren’t all hype.
More specifics: The cleanser is great; the oil-control lotion actually controls oil and keeps high shine at bay for ~4 hours; the overnight
clearing gel gives me visible results (1-2 days) whenever I have a sporadic flare up; not really sure how well the mask works, though my skin generally looks better when I keep it in the routine (I also mix it with another mask, with more firming properties); the exfoliator is my least favorite product (pharmagel has a much better one that I alternate with this one). Finally, the most amazing skin product I have ever used in my entire life is a part of this line…the clearing mattifier OMG… an absolute godsend this product, an absolute godsend.

|Good results so far after a week & half,
I’m 22 and still get acne and have tried everything there was to cure it since it started in my early teens. I’ve tried ProActiv, Duac, silicic acid based cleansing products, Ortho tri-cyclen, Trinessa, etc.. I had tried Accutane when I was a teenager which was supposed to be the closest thing to a cure. My acne completely disappeared for 2 years after using Accutane but came back. I was back to square one, only as an adult I didn’t think I’d still get acne. After, I tried multiple cleansing products and Duac till I became an adult and it worked for a while, but then I became immune to the ingredients in Duac… and nothing seemed to work again. And now recently, my aunt, who’s a beautician in NY, recommended Dermalogica for adult acne. After using it for a week, I already saw my face start to clear up. After about a week and a half now, when I usually would see acne again, my face is pretty much still clear (which is surprising) but I see one or two new pimples. I hope this lasts forever!
I bought it at Ulta for $40. Very spendy. But a lot of the cheap acne treatment products out there I found a little too harsh for my face and most of them were marketed towards teenagers. The acne treatments prescribed by my dermatologist, I found were short-term fixes. If you’re an adult still suffering from acne, I recommend trying Dermalogica. The bottles may seem small, but they’ll last a while.

|Not For Me,
I had high hopes for this product but was extremely disappointed when, after about four days of use my skin was so itchy from being dry. I used as directed in the morning and night. When I put on the matifying gel after I cleansed and put on the lotion afterward, it would cause the product to flake and my skin to dry. I’ve only used it for a couple of weeks and I think it’s time to try something else… again.
