Repair Cream Review
"Since switching to this repair cream, my skin has really cleared up. I had been going through breakouts and blemishes for a few months and tried a lot of different products. None of them worked as fast and as well as this. I have no regrets ordered and am currently on a subscription plan to keep this on my shelf at all times."

Necessary to Heal my Skin
"I got a little carried away with a new skin care routine and my skin revolted! It became red and inflamed. I purchased this on a recommendation from a friend. I stopped the new skin care routine and started using this for a few days and it both soothed and healed my face. I slowly reintroduced the newer products that had caused this issue and soon discovered what was causing the issue but continued to use this for several weeks as it was perfect restore the balance to my complexion. I like it enough to use it every day now!"
— Victoria R. (5/5)
New Favorite Moisturizer
"Since aging ive finally figured out why they talk about repairing skin barrier. Ive always heard about it and dismissed it but its a no brainer. Ive realized I cant wash my face with products that I used to in my 20s as my body is changing. I needed something less potent and abrasive and more nourishing and calming. This moisturizer is it. Ive used it for a month now and its what works with my face. My skin loves it and its almost calming and very moisturizing. I've used other dermalogica moisturizers and it seems to irritate my skin a bit, like my face didn't quite like it. This is my new all time favorite moisturizer."
— Daravanh K. (5/5)
Amazing product and fast delivery!
"I will forever love this stabilizing repair cream! It’s great for a night cream and for people who have sensitive-dry skin. Also for impaired skin barrier."
— Quinn (5/5)
Great thick moisture for dry winter months
"I really appreciate this cream for sensitive skin. It lasts a very long time and helps to hydrate, particularly over the winter time. I think that this is a great boost when you're dry and struggling to find moisture, and you only need to use a little bit each time to make an impact."
— Jamie Z. (5/5)
Wonderful product!
"I love this product. I recently had a rosacea flare and used this religiously to help heal my skin barrier. It goes on so smooth and it was very calming to my skin. My skin was back to normal after a few days. I'm now using it first thing in the morning to keep my skin healthy looking."
— Beth M. (5/5)
Love it
"This serum offers immediate relief to dry skin, love it"
— Ali (5/5)
We had used the smaller
"We had used the smaller tube for years and found you could better control the amounts. Not sure why the folks at Dermalogica decided to package this amazing cream in this large tubular device but it is difficult to travel with as well. Finally, the new packaging has a different product name, no longer just barrier repair, now stabilizing repair cream. So how is it different? Is it better? Does it do skin repair as well as the previous barrier repair in a tube? I think it is unreasonable to make these changes without an explanation; and frankly the new packaging is very inconvenient to use or travel with."

Does the stabilizing repair cream contain silicones?
Hello Michelle, Thank you for reaching out with your question about the ingredients—I’m happy to help clarify! This formula does not contain silicones. Stabilizing Repair Cream instead uses a blend of moisturizing and skin-conditioning ingredients like squalane, shea butter, and jojoba oil, along with soothing plant extracts. These can give a smooth, soft feel on the skin, but they are not silicone-based. If you have any other questions about ingredients or would like help finding products that meet your preferences, please let us know! We offer free skin consultations via chat with our professional skin experts on https://www.dermalogica.com/pages/contact-us. We also offer free video consultations. Here is a link to book a free 20 minute video consultation with one of our professional skin therapists! https://www.dermalogica.com/pages/video-consultations-page We look forward to speaking to you. Kind Regards, Melissa Dermalogica Professional Skin Therapist
Hi, Which ingredient(s) make this unsuitable for use on eyelids? Thanks
Hello Michelle, Thank you for your question, and we appreciate you reaching out for clarification. Stabilizing Repair Cream was specifically formulated to help soothe, calm, and reduce visible redness on the face. Because the skin around the eyes and eyelids is much thinner and more delicate than the rest of the face, this moisturizer was not designed or tested for use in that area. For this reason, we do not recommend applying Stabilizing Repair Cream directly on the eyelids or around the eye area. Instead, using a product that is specifically formulated and tested for the delicate eye area would be the safest and most comfortable option. If you would like, we would be happy to recommend an eye treatment that can help address your specific concerns while being gentle enough for that sensitive area. Please feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions. We’re always happy to help. Warm regards, Sandra
After you cleanse your face, can you use the stabilizing repair cream with a face oil? Also, if using the dynamic skin strengthening serum, would you apply the serum before the repair cream?
Hello Emmy, Thank you for your question! Yes, you should apply the Dynamic Skin Strengthening Serum before the Stabilizing Repair Cream, both morning and evening. As for face oils, it depends on the formulation—Dermalogica doesn’t currently have an oil meant to layer over the Stabilizing Repair Cream, so we don’t typically recommend it. During the day, be sure to follow with a mineral sunscreen, such as Invisible Physical Defense SPF 30 or Porescreen SPF 40, to protect your skin. If you’d like, we can also help you decide which one would be best for your specific skin concerns—please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at dermalogica.com/pages/contact-us. We’re here to help. Kindly, Sandra
Can u use on eye area?
Hello Ivy, Thank you for reaching out! Our stabilizing repair cream will be a moisturizer step, this would not be applied directly on the eye area, it can be applied just along the orbital bone! Please let us know if you would like specific recommendations for an eye product to use on the lids! Best, Willow, Dermalogica Professional Skin Therapist
