FAQs
How often should I use Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant Exfoliator?
For best results, it is recommended to use daily for best results or at least 3-5 times per week, depending on your skin's tolerance. If you have sensitive skin, start with 1-2 times per week and gradually increase as your skin adapts.
Can I use this on my body?
While primarily formulated for the face, the gentle exfoliation can be beneficial on other areas of the body prone to dryness or roughness, such as elbows or knees. However, use sparingly and test on a small area first.
What is the difference between this and a physical scrub?
Unlike physical scrubs that use abrasive particles, this is an enzyme-based exfoliant that dissolves dead skin cells. The rice-based powder provides gentle physical exfoliation as it's worked into a lather.
Will this help with acne?
Yes, the papain enzyme and salicylic acid help to dissolve dead skin cells and unclog pores, which can reduce the occurrence of blemishes and acne breakouts.
Is this product vegan?
The product description does not explicitly state if the product is vegan. It contains Colloidal Oatmeal, Papain, Salicylic Acid, and botanical extracts. For precise vegan status, refer to the manufacturer's official website or product packaging.
What does 'water-activated' mean?
It means the powder needs to be mixed with water to activate its exfoliating properties and transform into a usable lather. The effectiveness of the enzymes and active ingredients is released upon hydration.
Are these full-size products?
No, this offering includes two travel-sized units of the Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant Exfoliator, making it ideal for travel or sampling.
Troubleshooting
Product does not lather well.
Ensure you are using enough water. Start with a half-teaspoon of powder and add water gradually until a creamy lather is achieved. Make sure your hands are sufficiently wet.
Skin feels sensitive or irritated after use.
Reduce the frequency of use to once or twice a week. Ensure you are not applying too much pressure during application and rinse thoroughly. Avoid using other strong exfoliants or active ingredients on the same day.
Powder clumps or hardens in the container.
This indicates exposure to moisture. Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use and stored in a dry environment. If clumping has occurred, try to break up larger clumps before dispensing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Dispense about a half-teaspoon of powder into wet hands. Add a little more water to create a creamy, foamy lather. Gently massage onto the face in circular motions for about one minute, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Compatibility: This exfoliator is generally compatible with most skin types. However, it's recommended to perform a patch test if you have very sensitive skin or are new to exfoliating. It can be used in conjunction with most serums and moisturizers. Ensure your other active ingredients do not cause over-exfoliation when used together.
Care: Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is sealed tightly after each use to prevent moisture from entering the container and activating the powder prematurely. Keep out of reach of children.
