Dermalogica Daily Glycolic Cleanser 295ml helps reveal bright, smooth, even toned skin every day. It suits normal, combination and oily skin, and helps dull, uneven complexions look more fresh. Glycolic acid, a well known AHA, lifts dead cells, which aids cell renewal and boosts radiance. Calendula extract and jojoba seed oil help calm, nourish and support the skin barrier as you cleanse. The clear gel texture foams softly, so skin feels clean, refined and not stripped after rinsing. Used as a daily face wash, it fits well into brightening, anti dullness and anti ageing routines.

Is Dermalogica Daily Glycolic Cleanser safe for daily use?

This cleanser is made for daily use on normal, combination and oily skin types. The level of glycolic acid is designed to refresh skin tone while remaining gentle on the skin barrier. Some new users may prefer to start with fewer uses per week and increase gradually as skin tolerates it. If you already use other exfoliating skincare, such as strong acids or retinoids, balancing usage can help avoid irritation. Those with very sensitive or reactive skin may wish to patch test first and seek professional advice if unsure.

Which skin types will benefit most from Dermalogica Daily Glycolic Cleanser?

The formula is best suited to dull, uneven, normal, combination and oily skin. These skin types can benefit from help with congestion, surface build up, rough texture and lack of glow. Glycolic acid gently smooths the skin, while calendula and jojoba oil help maintain comfort. Some users with mild sensitivity may tolerate it well, although very fragile skin types may require a gentler cleanser. Dry skin can still use it if followed with a nourishing moisturiser.

How does Dermalogica Daily Glycolic Cleanser differ from a standard face wash?

A standard face wash mainly removes surface oil, dirt and impurities. Dermalogica Daily Glycolic Cleanser also contains glycolic acid, which helps loosen dead skin cells and promote a brighter, smoother appearance. This means it works as both a cleanser and a mild daily exfoliant. Calendula and jojoba oil help support skin comfort during cleansing, so skin can appear more even over time rather than only feeling clean immediately after use.

Will Dermalogica Daily Glycolic Cleanser dry out or strip my skin?

The gel cleanser is formulated without harsh sulphate surfactants, which helps minimise dryness. Gentle cleansing agents lift oil and impurities while supporting the skin barrier. Jojoba oil helps maintain softness, and calendula contributes to a calm, comfortable feel. Many users find their skin feels fresh and smooth rather than tight after rinsing. Those prone to dryness should follow with a hydrating serum and moisturiser.
