Description
Dermalogica Daily Superfoliant is a highly active resurfacing powder exfoliant designed to give smoother-looking skin and help defend against environmental aggressors linked to visible signs of ageing. The powder activates on contact with water, releasing enzymes and skin-smoothing alpha hydroxy acids.
Activated binchotan charcoal helps draw out impurities and pollutants from the pores, while niacinamide, red algae and tara fruit extract help shield the skin from the effects of pollution.
