Dermalogica Stabilizing Repair Serum Review
I’ve been loving the Dermalogica Stabilizing Repair Serum!
It’s become one of those products I reach for when my skin is feeling a little sensitive, dry or irritated. The serum feels really soothing and comforting on the skin, without being heavy or greasy, and I’ve noticed my skin feels much more hydrated and calm after using it.
I particularly love it when my skin is feeling tight or a little reactive — it takes away that uncomfortable feeling and leaves my skin feeling soft, moisturised and much more balanced. It’s also really easy to layer into my routine, so I’ve been using it morning and night before the rest of my skincare.
Definitely one I’d recommend if your skin is prone to dryness, sensitivity or irritation and you’re looking for something gentle but still really nourishing. - AB Staffer Anika.
