Reviews

Skin smoothing

"This product is mild, yet has enough grit, to buff the skin cells to smooth skin texture without being abrasive. All you need is a pea 🫛 size portion while in the shower and apply to the face. The water on your face and hand is enough if you add more water it will drown out the product. Exfoliating is drying to the skin so make sure to moisturize. Non-comedogenic so the pores are not clogged. 👍🏼😁😉 My skin type is combination and I have struggled with acne and dairy or protein B intolerance."

— Kimberly (5/5)

Super exfoliant

"Out of all the exfoliants I’ve tried, this one is truly my Holy Grail. With my combination skin and constantly changing weather, finding something that works consistently can be a challenge. This exfoliant gets deep into my pores, leaving my skin feeling clean, smooth, refreshed, and beautifully refined. It helps improve texture without feeling harsh, and I absolutely love it!"

— Marley (5/5)

Caused Awful Breakouts

"I'm a previous (and returning) user of the daily microfoliant. I was feeling like my skin needed something a bit different, so I decided to try the "super"foliant. It has caused so many breakouts and has made my skin the worst it has been in YEARS. (I have used it for more than 30 days, so it is not my skin needing to adjust to the new product. It also means I cannot get a refund. ) It also has that charcoal/sulfuric smell to it, so proceed with caution there. Would NOT recommend."

— Caroline (1/5)

Q&A

What is the major difference between this exfoliant and the daily microfoliant?: Hello Lateefah, Thank you for choosing Dermalogica. I have listed the difference in our microfoliant collection below: Daily Microfoliant brightens the skin with a blend of licorice, rice and grapefruit, while a combination of papain and salicylic acid polish and smooth. Daily Superfoliant is our strongest powder foliant and detoxifies the pores with charcoal, while resurfacing with enzymes, lactic acid and malic acid. It is also an anti-pollution treatment product. Daily Milkfoliant calms and soothes the skin while gently smoothing the skin with oat extract and coconut milk, as well as papain and grape extract. This is a great option for those who are new to exfoliation. You may take advantage of our free virtual skin consultation provided by our Virtual Professional Skin Therapists via live chat. They can assist you with selecting the perfect products for your skin goals.

I have permanent makeup on my eyebrows. If I get any of this product on my brows will it fade the permanent makeup on my brows?: Hello, thank you for your question. The Daily Superfoliant contains less than 1% of hydroxy acids. Rest assured, this exfoliant will not fade permanent makeup. Kind regards, Amber The Dermalogica Team
My superfoliant keeps getting clogged in the bottle. I thought I was out and it was almost full when I unscrewed the top. Any pointers on how to get it to flow out easier?: Hi Emily, Thank you for reaching out to Dermalogica. I suggest that you keep your Daily Superfoliant out of the shower as humidity can get inside the bottle and cause a clog. Best regards, the Dermalogica Team.
Which is best for sensitive skin: The daily superfoliant or the microfoliant?: Hello Garret, Thank you for your question. For those with a more sensitive skin type, we recommend the use of the Daily Microfoliant. To start, use 2-3 times a week and gradually work your way up to more if skin tolerance allows. I hope this helps! Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica, we appreciate your support. Kind regards, Amber Virtual Professional Skin Therapist
I have been using the Daily Superfoliant for several months but have persistent clogged pores on my forehead. My dermatologist recommended an exfoliating brush to me and the instructions say to use with my cleanser. Should I continue to use the Daily Superfoliant AND the exfoliating brush?: Hello Stephanie, thank you for reaching out to Dermalogica. We would love to learn more about your skin in order to recommend the best skincare regimen for you. Please visit our website to livechat with a licensed skin therapist for more information!
