Dermalogica

For twenty-five years, the researchers at Dermalogica have offered skin care systems that provide comprehensive and healthy solutions that will transform your skin. Founded in 1986, Dermalogica's basic approach to skin health remains the company's guiding mission. Dermalogica came into existence after the founder of the International Dermal Institute, Jane Wurwand, recognized that advanced skin and body therapy education was virtually nonexistent in the United States. Having founded IDI in 1983 and establishing the gold standard in postgraduate skin and body therapy education, Wurwand endeavored to create a product that offered the type of serious, sustained, and comprehensive skin care that was being practiced at IDI. Twenty-five years later, Dermalogica has over 75,000 trained skin therapists in over 48 countries worldwide, and has become the number one choice of skin care professionals.

In keeping with the goal of healthy skin treatment, Dermalogica's products never include commonly used ingredients that irritate the skin or can cause breakouts, such as lanolin, SD alcohol, or mineral oil. While it may be easier to formulate a product using these, they are damaging to the skin. Dermalogica uses natural essential oils and extracts from eco-safe sources and also utilizes recyclable containers for their packaging. Dermalogica is a privately owned company and has never taken part in animal testing. The expertise of thousands of professional skin therapists has made Dermalogica the most recommended beauty line in the industry.
