Courteney Cox, actress, Homecourt founder and recently minted Dermalogica partner, revealed last fall the charming way she began her decades-long relationship with Dermalogica: its Special Cleansing Gel ($14-68) was used as a prop on the set of Friends. Fast forward three decades and Cox isn’t one to gatekeep her Dermalogica go-tos. In addition to the classic cleanser, she frequently uses the Daily Microfoliant ($19-$66), Dynamic Skin Retinol Serum ($94) and Dynamic Skin Recovery SPF50 Moisturizer ($28.50-$125); the latter of which is free in a limited-time promotion.
Spend $75 or more on Dermalogica.com and you’ll get a complimentary 0.24 oz tube of Cox’s daily moisturizer and a 0.14 oz bottle of the Daily Milkfoliant Exfoliator, a calming exfoliant powder ideal for sensitive skin. For my noncommittal types, these minis are the perfect try-it-and-see-if-you-like-it opportunity.
The Dynamic Skin Recovery SPF50 Moisturizer combines peptides to stimulate collagen and help firm skin, white tea for antioxidant protection against triggers that lead to skin aging and squalane to deliver a healthy dose of hydration. High-quality SPF rounds out the formula for further skin protection and a seamless, velvety finish. “It leaves my skin glassy without being greasy!” exclaimed one shopper. A second customer noticed after using their “pores looked smaller,” while a third reported: “It leaves my skin hydrated, glowy and soft.” “I love this sunscreen, [it] doesn’t feel heavy at all on my skin and gives it a great dewy look,” shared another reviewer.
If you’re apprehensive over exfoliants because of dry, sensitive or reddening skin, the Daily Milkfoliant Exfoliator is the one to start with. The ingredient list is chock full of skin soothers (coconut milk, oat) and fruit-based acids and exfoliators (grape extract, papaya) that gently polish off dead skin cells for smoother, softer skin. One customer said Milkfoliant “significantly helped” with hormonal acne and “inflammation” on their jawline. A 40-something reviewer noted their skin “definitely got clearer” and their “pores are less clogged.” A shopper over 60 shared Milkfoliant is “very gentle,” “feels so smooth” and said their “lines are less visible immediately after!” Others raved, “This is the best and most gentle exfoliator I’ve used,” “love how my face feels after using this,” and “my skin has never looked better!”
