I have in the last few weeks gone back to using only products from the Dermalogica range - the difference was very noticeable from day one. The Skin Smoothing Cream makes your skin feel instantly hydrated, calmer, less tight and chiefly soft. I highly recommend it to all people with sensitive skin. There is no sticky sensation or shine, it is instantly absorbed. I have used products which cost a lot more and now rave about this cream as its the second time I've gone back to it! This is a must have cream at a great price.
