Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant
I recently ordered my second bottle of the Daily Microfoliant. I had previously liked the exfoliation and skin brightening I had received from using the product, but found the method of application to be messy and annoying. After stumbling upon an online demonstration of another way to apply the product, my opinion changed. The online demonstration suggested putting the desired amount of product in a small bowl, adding a few drops of water, and thoroughly mixing it with a fan skin care brush until it turned into a creamy, slightly foamy emulsion. This was a game changer for me. I could now use the product without creating a mess and the results were significantly better. I can totally recommend this way of applying the product and am now a regular user.

Not what I was expecting
It's a powder that you have to wet in your hands. this was recommended by my aesthetician. It's a little odd application. Apparently it is gentle enough to use daily. not sure about the outcome/effects yet.

Love this fine exfoliant but don't get it in your eyes!
I love this fine exfoliant and will never again use anything harsher on my face. I would not recommend using this too many times a week, however, as that can get irritating (my skin is normal.) The only thing to be careful of is-- DO NOT get this in your EYES! It is so easily for the product to get in your eyes- now I avoid the eye area all together so it doesn't happen! (especially when you wear contacts.) This is worth the money.

Great for after using a retinol
This is a product I use to gently get rid of the peeling caused by my biweekly retinol use. Not irritating and very mild.

works well
Works well for my sensitive skin. My skin was smooth after using this product. The texture is good too. One small flaw (for me) is that I cant use this often. I use retinol and lactic acid already, so I have to use it once every five days or so--otherwise, it'll dry my skin a bit.

Good for bad acne
Definitely seems to help occasional breakouts but I'm giving it four stars because it does not clear them completely and is slightly drying so I wouldn't use it every day.

Always Go back to Dermalogica
There's a reason so many medspas use this brand because it works! I love this brand and always feel so clean and does what it says it does! Won't be dissapointed with this product. Clean feel without too harsh since I have severe flushing of redness (sensitive skin)

Good daily product
I have been using this product for years. It does a nice job of brightening my skin cleaning out pores.

Reduces oil and exfoliates
I wasn’t sure what to expect but have found this to be a useful exfoliant. Sometimes it is a bit hard to get it all rinsed off but am happy overall.

Mild exfoliant for daily use
Gentle enough for daily use, not too harsh a physical exfoliant. I have acne prone skin and this did not cause any breakouts. A little goes a long way, I combine it with my daily acne face wash every night. A bit pricey hence the 4 star rating.

Gentle exfoliation
I started using Retin-a a few months ago and once my skin stabilized, needed a gentler exfoliator than the ones I have been using. I use the Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant once a week and my skin feels so smooth! It does make my face feel a tad dry and tight afterwards, but that is my typical experience with any exfoliant. While this is gentle, I would not use this on a daily basis.

Good polisher
I give this 4 stars and not 5 because it is not as gritty as I think an exfoliant should be. It polishes rather than exfoliates. It does leave your skin feeling soft though.

Not the best
I like this. It doesn't have a great lather though. Doesn't strip skin.

Works well but not for daily use
I have dry and sensitive skin. I really like how this feels on my skin and after but I’ve found I can’t use it daily since I’m also using Differin—both are too drying together. I use the microfoliant every 3 days.

Good but not for daily use
I used this product as directed every day for a week and found it was too harsh for my sensitive skin. My t-zone became red and dry, so I stopped using it until my skin returned to normal. I have gone back to using it only a couple of times a week, and it seems fine as long as I gently wash my face. It exfoliates well and a little bit of powder goes a long way.

Gentle exfoliant
I had a facial that turned out nicely and asked what was used. She recommended this product. I don't really enjoy the hassle of the powder and mixing with water to get a paste and would prefer a product that is ready to use. I do think this is helpful for my skin and does not make it irritated or break out. I will continue to use it until I find something else. The Superfoliant by Dermalogica is catching my eye now. If I had a sample to try, would make the decision easier. This microfoliant will not irritate red skin or cause breakouts.

Great So Far
I use it nightly after cleansing and before serums. I love the pure/natural scent. I feel it cleans and softens my skin. The product has worked great for me this summer, (does not dry my skin)...but I'm not sure how it's going to work in the winter months as I have somewhat dry skin and live in a cold climate. The reasons I didn't give the product 5 stars: 1) the cost, and 2) occasionally the rice based powder has some rough/sharp particles.
