Just because every chemists, supermarket and beauty store you step in to is filled with shelf after shelf of soap doesn’t mean that you have to give in and use it!

Think back to your childhood, and there’s a good chance that you’ll remember a parent bathing you or washing your face in soap at some point. You certainly don’t need to carry the tradition on though, and now that you’re an adult you really should know better!

Soap is generally there to smell nice and provide skin with a surface cleanse, although with most soaps, this is where the ‘benefits’ end.

Soap can be unbelievably drying and it’s also highly unlikely to provide skin with the thorough cleanse it needs- so you need to try and restrict its use to washing your hands in public loos- basically, when you’ve got no other option!

Keep soap away from your face, and instead invest in a face cleanser which has been specifically designed for the job.

The same goes for when you’re washing your body in the bath- use a proper body wash.

Dermalogica has everything you need to be able to cleanse your skin properly, so there’s no reason at all why soap should feature.

Leaving seriously dry and dehydrated skin to suffer could quickly make it even worse- and the longer you leave skins to its own devices, the longer it could take for you to restore the state of skin.

When skin isn’t looked after properly, dryness can speedily make itself known, and if your skin is already prone to dryness, you could find yourself faced with skin which is about as parched as it’s ever going to get.

When skin is incredibly dry, it can also start to look far older than its years- which is another reason why you need to act swiftly to get skin back to its best.

An ultra rich hydrating moisturiser is a must for restoring skin back to its former hydrated, supple and smooth glory, so why not give Dermalogica Super Rich Repair a try?

Dermalogica Super Rich Repair moisturiser is a heavyweight in helping skin to fight its way back to health, and there’s no waiting around with this product, as it gets to work right away.

The Super Rich Repair Cream is the ultimate multi-tasker, as in addition to hydrating skin, it also helps to reduce the look of fine lines, improve elasticity and reinforce the natural defensive barrier of the skin.

Don’t wait to rehydrate- invest in this product without delay.

In this cold weather, there are few better ways to warm yourself up than with a nice warm bath. When it is so cold though, and when you also just want to really unwind, it can be so tempting to just lie in the bath for hours.

As pleasant as they are though, lying in the bath for an eternity can really dehydrate the skin- especially if you like your bubble baths nice and hot!

If you’re not prepared to completely swap your nice hot baths for quick showers though, what you do need to do is make sure that you replace lost moisture each and every time you finish towelling off.

Using an intensely rehydrating body moisturiser is an absolute must- failing to use one could quickly leave your skin seriously dry.

Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream is an after bath time essential, as it soaks quickly and seamlessly into the skin- immediately making skin a lot more supple.

Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream can restore moisture to even the driest of skin after bath time- so everyone gets to enjoy baby soft skin after a lengthy soak.

Excessively oily skin is an incredibly common skin type, and men and women of many different ages find themselves having to battle excess oil on a daily basis.

Although it can be an absolute pain to deal with, minimising excess oil on the skin definitely isn’t out of anyone’s control, especially with skin care products being as effective and varied as they are these days.

Getting a grip of excess oil is largely down to using the right skin care products. If you’re using products which have been designed for a completely different skin type, you’re unlikely to be able to successfully gain control over the condition.

Instead, you need to invest in top quality oil-free skin care products (i.e. your cleanser, toner and moisturiser) as well as products which have been specifically formulated to control oil.

Dermalogica not only has a terrific choice of cleansers, toners and moisturisers which can help with oil production and oil control, but also a great Oil Control Lotion.

The Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion will work in conjunction with your other skin care products, and will work to control oil all day long.

Every single individual’s skin deserves lots of care and attention- and this means looking after it with good quality skin care products.

Failing to use the good quality products and failing to use them regularly won’t do your skin any favours now or in the long run, so if your skin care regime is dubious, there’s no time like the present to rectify the situation.

For every skin type, there are thousands of different products, although you can narrow your choices down considerably by completely eliminating the low quality ones.

The fab thing about treating yourself by treating your skin to good quality products is that you won’t have to max out your credit card in doing so, as there are many amazing products available today which are priced incredibly affordably.

Dermalogica skin care products fall into the amazing yet affordable category, and whatever your skin type, there is a great choice of Dermalogica products which you’ll be able to make use of and which will help you to follow an effective skin care regime.

By treating your skin to good quality products, your skin will serve you well and help to ensure that you always look positively glowing.
