Dermalogica Daily: exfoliation and everyday cleansing

This collection brings together the Dermalogica products built for regular, low-irritation use. The headline act is the Daily Microfoliant and its sibling polishing powders, backed up by the Special Cleansing Gel that many people pair with it morning and night.

What makes the Daily Microfoliant different

The Daily Microfoliant is a rice-based powder rather than a cream or gel. You tip a small amount into damp palms, add water, and it foams into a soft paste. That format lets you exfoliate every day without the scratchy feel of nut shells or large beads, which is why it became the product the rest of this range is named after.

Daily Milk, Super and Micro variants

Beyond the original, the range carries the Daily Milk, Daily Super and Daily Micro polishing powders in sizes from 13g sachets up to 74g jars. They share the same activate-with-water idea but vary in strength and finish, so you can match the formula to how reactive your skin tends to be.

Pairing with the Special Cleansing Gel

The Special Cleansing Gel appears here in 50ml, 250ml and the large 946ml salon bottle. It is a soap-free, lightly foaming wash that lifts away makeup and surface grime. Used before the Microfoliant, it clears the way so the exfoliating powder can work on clean skin.

Building a daily routine

A simple sequence works well: cleanse with the gel, then a few times a week or, for some, every day, follow with one of the polishing powders. Finish with a hydrator such as the Active Moist gel-lotion. Keeping the steps few and consistent is the point of the Daily line.

Who this range suits

The format leans toward combination, congested and sensitive skin that does not get on with grainy scrubs. If you find traditional exfoliants leave you red or tight, a daily powder gives you control over how much you use and how often you reach for it.

Sizes and how to choose

Sachets and small jars are the easy way to try a variant before committing. The 75ml Microfoliant is the standard home size, while the larger cleansing gel bottles suit households or anyone who goes through cleanser quickly. Travel sizes keep the routine going on trips.

Dermalogica on skinsli

We stock Dermalogica alongside the Korean ranges that make up most of the skinsli catalogue. The Daily exfoliation step slots neatly into a layered K-beauty routine, sitting between cleansing and the essence and serum stages that follow.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • It is a rice-based exfoliating powder. You activate it with water in your palms until it forms a soft foam, then massage it over damp skin. The powder format makes it gentle enough that many people use it every day.

  • The line is designed for frequent use, which is where the name comes from. That said, start a few times a week and build up. If your skin feels tight or looks red, space out the applications and use a smaller amount.

  • They all work on the activate-with-water principle but vary in strength and finish. The Milk version leans softer, while the Super and Micro options target a more thorough polish. Choose based on how reactive your skin is.

  • Many people do. The soap-free gel removes makeup and surface oil first, so the exfoliating powder works on a clean surface. It comes in 50ml, 250ml and a large 946ml bottle for heavy users.

  • The powder format avoids the rough particles found in many scrubs, which makes it a friendlier choice for sensitive and reactive skin. You control the dose each time, so you can keep it mild on the days your skin needs it.
