Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream face moisturizer — 5.1 fl oz, 48-hour hydration with Vitamin C & Hyaluronic Acid

Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream is a daily face moisturizer that delivers up to 48 hours of continuous hydration while helping protect skin from environmental stressors.

This lightweight, yet rich cream uses Dermalogica’s Active HydraMesh Technology and a Hyaluronic Acid complex to lock in moisture and help reduce Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL). Infused with Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and grape seed extract, it supports skin radiance and provides antioxidant protection to help maintain a smooth, supple appearance.

How does this cream keep skin hydrated for 48 hours?

The formula relies on Active HydraMesh Technology, which creates a moisture-supportive network on the skin’s surface to retain water longer than standard moisturizers. A dynamic Hyaluronic Acid complex works at multiple layers to attract and distribute hydration throughout the skin for sustained softness.

• Active HydraMesh Technology forms a mesh-like barrier that reduces moisture loss.
• Multi-weight Hyaluronic Acid attracts water to different skin layers for even hydration.
• Locks in moisture to smooth texture and minimize tightness between applications.

Will it protect my skin from environmental stress and pollution?

Yes — the cream contains antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and grape seed extract to help neutralize free radicals from pollution and UV exposure. The formulation also supports the skin’s natural microbiome, bolstering its resilience against external stressors without harsh preservatives.

• Vitamin C helps brighten and support skin radiance.
• Vitamin E and grape seed extract provide antioxidant defense.
• Microbiome-supporting ingredients help maintain skin balance under environmental strain.

How does it address fine lines and skin texture?

By maintaining hydration and reducing TEWL, the cream plumps the skin surface, which can soften the appearance of fine lines and improve elasticity. Continuous moisture and antioxidant support contribute to a smoother-looking complexion over time.

• Hydration plumps skin to visually reduce fine lines.
• Improved elasticity helps skin feel firmer and more resilient.
• Antioxidants protect the skin environment that influences texture.

How should I use Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream in my routine?

Apply morning and night after cleansing and any treatment serums to seal in active ingredients and hydration. Use a dime-sized amount to cover face and neck, and layer sunscreen over it during daytime for broad-spectrum protection.

• Use after cleansing and serums to lock in benefits.
• Suitable for AM and PM routines; reapply if skin feels dry.
• Pair with sunscreen in the morning for environmental defense.

Who is this for: Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream suits anyone looking for a reliable, everyday moisturizer that focuses on long-lasting hydration, texture improvement, and antioxidant support. It’s formulated for normal to dry or combination skin types that benefit from sustained moisture, protection against environmental stress, and ingredients that promote radiance without heavy residue. The 5.1 fl oz size is practical for daily use at home or in professional skincare routines.
