Dermalogica Age Smart Dynamic Skin Recovery Moisturiser Review

I have tried Dermalogica few times before but did not really stick to any products (partly) because of the price. But since they had a significant price off, I realised it is time to invest on serious skin care products. So I went to a trusted spa with Dermalogica skin experts, got my skin map and decided on this moisturiser for my daily use.

I think this product is suitable for most skin types, even sensitive skin. When I started using this, my skin was in a very bad situation: dehydrated and redness (it was the very first time I had this since I have combi/oily skin). Things got better and better after several days. By the time writing this, I have been using this moisturiser (along with another product of the same line for night) for more than two weeks. My skin went back to normal, no redness and feel smooth and much more hydrated.

A senior friend of mine with dry skin also enjoyed using this. We both use this moisturiser, then the perfect primer before makeup and so far so good!

I highly recommend this for sensitive skin, even with people who suffer from break-out. Believe me, this can save your skin and it worths the price!

I have just added this beauty into my skin care routine, I was using the intensive moisture balance but since hitting the big 30 thought I better up my game to some anti aging.

Simple packaging, with a handy pump dispenser so you don’t use too much.

Light weight and non greasy, unlike some moisturisers with spf. Glides on easily and blends in well, doesn't leave your skin feeling tacky at all.

I love the fact that this product has no parabens, artificial colours or fragrances, And of course not tested on animals, makes me feel 100x better putting this product on my skin.

After using for 3 weeks I have definitely noticed that my skin is feeling more hydrated and nourished, and I think I’m noticing a change in my fine lines, will know in a few more weeks for sure.

Definitely a product I will keep using and if you like your moisturizer with spf I definitely recommend this one.

Dermalogica is one of my favourite brands, I've been using their products on and off for years, as the products I have tried so far have been so lovely and hydrating for my skin. I currently use the ultra calming cleanser for cleansing /makeup removal followed by intensive moisture for my moisturiser.

I decided to branch out and try their age smart range, including this moisturiser as I thought it might be more suited to me in prevention against the fine lines that are starting now that I'm in my early thirties.

The packaging is so stylish, simple and sleek- like all other Dermalogica products. The white and grey colour way just looks good on my vanity. The Dermalogica packaging is modern and looks fresh.

This moisturiser on application feels nice and light. It seemed to give me good hydration to my face, although not as moisturising as my usual, intensive moisture balance. I like that it doesn't have fragrance and feels gentle yet nourishing.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure whether it was the SPF included in this moisturiser or one of the other ingredients, but my face broke out in small cyst-like pimples and reacted to this. It's taken me a while to get my face clear. So, it seems that this moisturiser is too rich for my skin type. It's a shame, as I thought it would be a great product for anti-ageing. But, I think as I have sensitive skin that can be reactive, this just did not suit me.

I've gone back to my beloved Dermalogica intensive moisture balance for a moisturiser, which is just a perfect moisturiser for me. I'm sure this would be great for other people with different skn types, but it just didn't work for me.

I am totally on the fence with this one - I have a few Dermalogica products, most of which I love, but this one just hasn't sold me. It has very clean, stylish packaging like all Dermalogica products, The pump bottle dispenses the perfect amount, although being opaque you can't easily see how much product you have left. I really like that it is both anti-aging as well as having a high SPF. The cream is not too thick and spreads nicely, and absorbs quite easily, so there's no long wait before you can apply makeup. To be honest I haven't really noticed any results from using this beyond what I would expect to see from a typical moisturiser, so for the price point, I would not purchase again.

Ever since I tried the Dermalogica daily microexfoliant in the 'top rated' BBBE, I have become a bit of a Dermalogica fan buying and trying lots of products. So when I saw this moisturiser with a whopping SPF50 I had to have it.

The packaging is great, it comes in a cylinder shaped tube, where the product is pushed up from the bottom and of course has a pump top lid. I love this packaging, there is zero waste all the product in the tube is used and the pump dispenses the perfect amount every single time.

The moisturiser has a slight yellow tinge to it and no scent at all. The consistency is perfect it's not too runny nor is it too thick. I pump 3 pumps onto my fingers then blend it in, It blends in easily and soaks into my skin in seconds it leaves no residue and surprisingly doesn't leave me looking like a ghost, I say that because I've noticed most high SPF moisturisers leave a white residue on my skin like I've rubbed straight zinc onto my face.

As for the anti aging? No I don't think it lives up to that claim BUT it is not a complete waste of money. The SPF50 certainly lives up. I can put this on at 7am and be outside all day and I haven't had any sunburn on my face. And it does seem to keep my skin hydrated all day which is another plus for me. Would I repurchase? Oh yes in a heartbeat, the sun is too vicious on our skin even on cloudy days we still damage our skin, better to be safe than sorry.

I've never found a reason to change from this moisturiser! It goes on so light but feels so nourishing. Then there's the SPF - I don't know another moisturiser that's not only targeting the effects of ageing but also has a really decent sun/uv protection with it - which when you think about it those age/wrinkle products should totally be helping protect you from sun damage!

It's a lovely product that I wouldn't be without. I use quite a few of the AGE smart range and feel together my skin is well looked after - and venturing into your 40's you're definitely aware of ageing skin.

A little goes a long way thankfully as it's in the pricier range for moisturisers but then it delivers so much which is great!

The bottle/pump is awesome. Makes it easy not to apply too much - I don't tend to use more than a single pump with each use and there's a guide down the side so you can see how much you have left! I'm always ordering my next one when I get to about a quarter left.

I feel anti-ageing product promises fall a bit flat with most products - we are ageing and it's tough to stop that but I definitely think my skin reflects a younger look than my actual age and 5 years of a dermalogica regime is certainly a big part of that and I'm a happy with that!

I have only just started using this moisturiser as I thought I should start with an anti ageing routine, and although it is pricey you don't need much. It feels great going on and I found it kept my skin nourished during the day even in an air-conditioned room. I did feel though that by the end of the day I needed to top it up with a spritz of moisture.

I have hyper pigmentation and was recommended to use this. I have used other moisturisers with SPF in them, but this one is really good. It's not heavy like some of them can be. It's not 5/5 because of the price - it is expensive, but it does work. It does come in a pump bottle in what I call a "make up bag friendly" shape. So that is a bonus for me.

Love this product, not so much the price but cant fault it as a moisturizer for perfered choice. If never on a budget this for sure would be my day time go to.

I use this every morning religiously! The product lasts me 4 - 6 months, only one pump is needed. It's not too sticky and can apply makeup soon after. I have also noticed my skin texture is more smooth.
