Dermalogica - My favourite Skincare Products

Hi there Honeys, Happy St Paddy's Day!!
I have not heard many other bloggers talk about Dermalogica products before, have you? 
 I have been using Dermalogica for years and I am always finding new products in the range which exceed all my expectations!
I have really dry, and senstive skin which when using the wrong products can turn spotty, dry and flaky and very tight and sore. 
A friend of mine has a salon which only stocks Dermalogica and this is what started me onto this wonderful world of skincare.
Yes the products aren't cheap, and at times you feel as though you should be reaching for a high street / cheaper brand but my skin always tells me otherwise and no matter how tight on funds I am, I always go back.
So here's my favourite Dermalogica products, I shall list as much information on each and what I use them for, I hope you find this post useful. (please excuse the grainy photos)

My favourite Dernalogica skincare products

•Helps calm and cool the redness, heat and discomfort of rosacea, sensitized or highly reactive skin.


•Easily rinses away or wipes off, making it ideal for skin so sensitized it cannot tolerate water.

I use this everyday, although the one photographed is a travel size version, because I have to purchase a replacement full size.  This takes off all make up, even eye makeup and doesn't aggrevate your eyes.
