Dermologica Daily Microfoliant

I am so amazed by this product. It's basically a gentle facial exfoliator, but unlike any that I've come across before. Instead of the exfoliating gels and lotions that my bathroom's awash with, Dermologica's Daily Microfoliant comes in the form of a rice-based powder. To use it you apply a small amount to wet hands, massage into your face and then rinse.

It's gentle enough to use everyday, which is really unusual for an exfoliator. The powder almost turns into a thin lotion when it comes into contact with the water in your hands. The granules are really small (I guess thats why it's called Microfoliant), so small in fact you can barely feel them when your rubbing this all over your face.

After you've massaged, rinsed and patted your face dry it's left feeling so bright, so clean and so ready for whatever the world has to throw at it you'll wonder how you ever survived without this in your life. Unlike a lot of other exfoliators and cleansers that I've tried, I don't find that this makes my skin too tight either (obviously still moisturise afterwards as you would with any cleanser).

The formula contains Salicylic acid, which is really good for keeping blemishes at bay. Apparently the rice-enzymes micro-exfoliate dead skin cells, which is how skin is left feeling so much smoother and brighter. To be honest I don't really get the science behind it, I just know that as someone with quite blemish-prone skin, who's been searching for the perfect daily cleanser for what seems like forever, I think I  may have found it.

75g of this wonder product will set you back £38.50 (ouch). I was sent a trial size of this in Glossybox and think I probably would never have splashed out that much for it if I hadn't tried it first. But now I have tried it I'll definitely be repurchasing when my little one's ran out. 75g will last for ages (like ages and ages). You only need half a teaspoon at a time (which is a tiny amount) and i reckon there's an awful lot of half teaspoons in 75g. I honestly do think it's worth it and can't recommend this enough. I feel as though my prayers have finally been answered.
