Why, oh why is this product so flipping expensive?! I totally have to disagree here with some of the other people that say this does not actually repair your barrier when it is compromised. To me,...

What can I say? I've always referred to this masterpiece as my little bottle of botox. Because that is exactly what it is. After putting it on, you basically get the same silicone effect, and it's...

I have been using barrier repair for at least 7 years. It's the only moisturizer I have ever used that doesn't cause my skin to breakout, while also providing enough moisture to do the job....

Make no mistake, there's nothing in here that repairs, but there is barrier protection. The primary ingredients are the same things you find in primers (& UD's all-nighter foundation), which are...

I haven't used this very long but I think it's an okay product. After I put it on I can see my redness reduced dramatically but other than that I don't think it does anything. In my opinion it has...

I got this as part of the calming kit. I had the most hope for this product. I have dry sensitive skin - I cannot remember a time that I have not had to put on moisturizer at least twice a day. ...

This is the under-performer of the Ultra Calming line. Its of a light silicone consistency, feels greasy yet lacking moisture. It just sits atop of the epidermis supposedly sealing in whatever...

I use this as a primer. I have dry skin so i cannot use it without a moisturizer underneath and i dont think thats how it is meant to be used. It puts an ever so light and un-noticeable layer over...

This anhydrous gel moisturizer works like a shield over your skin to protect it from the elements. Not suitable for oily skin types as this is a waterless moisturizer. It makes an excellent makeup...

First things first - this is marketed by Dermalogica as a moisturizer so it's not really fair to call others stupid for expecting it to be moisturizing. Dermalogica should do a better job of...
