The new Hydrablur Primer from Dermalogica is perfectly lightweight, non-greasy and helps to mattify against oily shine and leaves the skin super smooth and gorgeously silky . Delivering a light, neutral coverage, this long lasting primer infuses the skin with optimal hydration while a blend of Abyssinian Oil and Whu-Zhu-Yu fruit extract enhances the skin’s natural radiance.

If you’re prone to a sizeable pore than Hydrablur Primer is your new best friend as naturally astringent Mushroom extract effectively reduces pore appearance in a mere swipe.

The clever team at Dermalogica have created skin care solutions that address all skin conditions and types, with a goal of optimising the skins fitness. Many of us suffer from redness, irritation or overly sensitive skin as the seasons change and over exposure during Irelands beautiful Summer may have led to dehydrated, thirsting skin. So lets’ prepare and protect with these essential tips and tricks.

Hydration

Ensuring the continued hydration of your skin is vital. The transition of seasons can negatively impact the skin cells causing undernourishment and hyper sensitivity. So how do we focus on rehydration? Well mother natures’ natural bounty of fruits, water and vegetables will certainly go some way but Dermalogicas Skin Hydrating Booster is a super saturated hydrating fluid designed to intensely moisturise thirsting skin and is suitable for all skin types.

Nourish & Moisturise

While you may have been able to get away with a relaxed routine throughout summer, perhaps only using a tinted moisturiser, now is the time to reintroduce a formidable moisturiser back into the bathroom cabinet. Pair a lightweight daytime moisturiser with a richer night-time formula to keep your skin comfortable as the temperatures drop. The Dermalogica range caters for varying needs but there is no denying the brilliance of Dermalogicas Intensive Moisture Balance or perhaps try Dermalogica ChromaWhite TRx Pure Light SPF30 for the ultimate daytime defence.

Don’t Retire the Sunscreen

A common and potentially dangerous assumption is that once the sun disappears, the threat of UV/UVB sun damage is lessened.  This unfortunately is not the case. Even though we wear more clothing, UV rays can still wreak havoc on the skin and may cause premature ageing and changes in the skin cells themselves. Take time each morning to apply an SPF infused treatment to the face, neck and décolleté, Dermalogica have a wide range of products in this area including Dermalogicas Solar Defense Booster SPF 50. Suitable for all skin types, this can be blended with your moisturiser or foundation to create much needed protection.

Exfoliate & Repair

An essential step in any skin care routine is the renewal and protection of skin cells. Exfoliation eliminates dead, dry cells in order to create the optimal skin environment for new growth, repair and revitalisation. Look for products that contain Glycolic or Salicylic Acid, these regenerative ingredients will leave skin fresh and smooth, supporting the natural radiance and beauty beneath. Why not try Dermalogicas Gentle Cream Exfoliant, designed for all skin types, it thoroughly removes surface debris, dramatically improving your skins texture.

Skincare Doesn’t Stop with the Face.

Give your body some TLC to repair summers damage. Focus on the particularly rough, dry areas such as the feet, elbows and knees, which can suffer from dryness and lack of nourishment. Using Dermalogicas Conditioning Body Wash, work into a lather over the entire body or if preferable run into a bath for a foaming bath soak. Suitable for all skin types follow with a body moisturiser and apply whilst skin is still damp from your bath/shower. Complete your skin care routine with Body Hydrating Cream by Dermalogica, infused with essential oils and plant extracts that moisturise and condition the skin is left beautifully soft and toned.

And it's no surprise that it's so popular, thanks to key ingredients Salicylic Acid and Rice Enzymes which help to brighten and smooth the skin's surface and target uneven skin tone and rough texture.

Daily Microfoliant is suitable for all skin types, including dry skin, dehydrated skin, oily skin, aging skin and uneven skin tone.

But just how should it be used, exactly?

• Dispense approximately half a teaspoon of Daily Microfoliant into your very wet hands.
• Rub your hands together to create a creamy paste by mixing the powder with water.

• Soak a face cloth or similar in cold water, if possible add some ice.
• Squeeze out excess water then gently press over the entire eye area.
• Repeat as necessary.
• Some causes of puffy eyes are related to sleep deprivation and can be simply rectified by catching up on your Z's. If you have puffy eyes all day, take an early night.
• For a topical solution, we recommend Dermalogica Stress Positive Eye Lift 25ml (75 Uses), which visibly firms and smooths skin texture, minimises the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and reduces the appearance of puffiness around the eye area. You may also like the Dermalogica Awaken Peptide Eye Gel 15ml, which seeks to leave the under eyes feeling refreshed and nourished.

Bioengineered Succinic Acid blend supports a more radiant appearance. Voandzeia Subterranea Seed Extract leaves skin smoother and more luminous.

Other Common Eye Concerns:

• The skin around the eyes is thinner and more delicate, which means it is extra susceptible and more likely to be the first to show any signs of skin damage caused by environmental assaults. Combat visible lines around the eye area with Dermalogica Power Firm, a powerful firming complex of skin-rebuilding antioxidant vitamins from the AGE Smart range. Also recommended for aging skin around the eye area is AGE Smart® - Age Reversal Eye Complex 15ml, which, thanks to Micro-encapsulation technology, optimises Retinol potency and absorption, reverses multiple signs of skin aging around the delicate eye area and delivers potent age-fighting actives deep into the skin.
• To brighten the under eye area, check out Dermalogica Biolumin-C Eye Serum 15ml, which brightens the eye area with a boost of Vitamin C, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and exfoliates and hydrates for smooth, healthy-looking skin!

Smart Tip when applying Eye Cream

When applying any eye creams always work from the outer corner of the eye inwards. Using your ring finger starting at the outer corner of the eye gently pat along the cheek bone towards the inner eye socket, then continue along the brow bone back to the outer eye. Basic circular movement.
