Reviews

Very disappointed it's not available anymore

"Hello. I have rosacea and very sensitive skin (for decades). I have been using this product ultra calming serum concentrate for years and it truly is the ONLY thing I can use on my face and around my eyes. The only thing. I know it's been popular and a standard for many women. Your alternative products including the Dynamic Skin Strengthening Serum are not anything close to it and cause skin reaction, hence it's not in the ultra-calming collection. Please bring it back."

Tammy (5/5)

If you’re considering it, buy it!

"I absolutely love this stuff. It has made my skin so much better. I switched to this brand because my face was easily irritated after a medication change and I can’t say enough good things about it. It calmed down the redness and reduced oiliness while making my face hydrated and happy!"

Victoria H. (5/5)

Great addition to my skincare routine

"It has a clean and smooth feeling on your skin and doesn't irritate it at all. It has not made my face feel like it was burning or hot. I usually use it after the pre-cleanse and the ultra calming cleanser, before I moisturize, and its essence adds an extra layer of hydration. It has a light texture, but does take a few minutes to absorb into your skin. There is no smell, which I prefer. Overall, I am very satisfied with this entire line of products and highly recommend for anyone with rosacea or redness issues."

Susana L. (5/5)

Not sure about the calming effects

"Been using for 2 weeks now on my very irritated 2nd trimeester skin. Havent really noticed any difference yet, but will keep using to see if it calms my red, inflamed cheeks. It does feel nice when putting it on, and is not greasy or oily at all. Absorbs nicely for layering with other products."

This has been out of stock for a while - is it being discontinued?
Hello Victoria, Thank you so much for reaching out with your question. The UltraCalming Serum Concentrate has unfortunately been discontinued. We sincerely apologize for any disappointment this may cause, as we know how important it is to have trusted staples in your routine.

This lightweight, milky serum is designed to nourish, hydrate, and help strengthen the skin’s barrier for improved resilience over time. It contains no acids or exfoliants, making it a comforting option for sensitive or compromised skin. It can be used up to twice daily, applied after cleansing and before moisturizing. You can learn more about it here: https://www.dermalogica.com/products/dynamic-skin-strengthening-serum If you’d like personalized guidance on how to transition your routine or ensure this is the best fit for your skin’s needs, I’d be more than happy to help.

Does this have parabens or phthalates in it?
Hi, Allie! Thank you for reaching out to Dermalogica. The UltraCalming Serum Concentrate does not contain parabens or phthalates. Kind regards, Beatriz.
Can I use the ultracalm serum with the banking serum? Or should I just use one in AM and one in PM?
Hi Gail, Thank you for your question! For effective results, please use one serum in the morning and use the other one in the evening rather than mixing them together. Kind Regards, Beatriz
Should I apply this before or after the vitamin C serum?
Hello Emily, Thank you for reaching out to Dermalogica. In general, we do not suggest layering more than one serum. Active ingredients work best when they have access to the skin, and some serum formulas create a barrier which may prevent a second serum from penetrating the skin. For maximum benefit, we recommend incorporating more than one into your routine by using one in the AM and one in the PM. In Best Wishes for Skin Health Willow Virtual Professional Skin Therapist
