The anti-aging formula is the MVP of my routine.
Every summer, I go through an Animorph transformation into an actual sloth because of the 70 percent humidity and 100-degree heat. It’s very difficult, almost impossible, to do anything besides sit on my couch right in front of the AC, watch the History Channel, and cross-stitch.
Even my skin care routine takes a hit. I just cannot be bothered to apply a moisturizer when my skin is perpetually damp, oily, or sweaty. But when I deprive my skin of hydration, I pay the price via dryness, itchiness, and blemishes. I’m not here merely to complain, but rather relay the solution I’ve found via Dermalogica’s Hyaluronic Ceramide Mist.

I think it’s important to know that I am not a skin care mist person. I’ve tried dozens, but only like a couple—including this Dermalogica Hyaluronic Ceramide Mist. The formula comes out in teeny tiny particles with a lightweight, water-like consistency. It feels refreshing and luxurious, but the way it is dispensed serves a vital function; IMO, it’s the reason my skin is able to absorb the moisturizer seamlessly and without any leftover residue. The immediate effect is hydrated, plump, and dewy—but not oily—skin.
The long-term effects are plentiful thanks to the trio of hyaluronic acid (it contains four types), ceramides, and rose water. These ingredients have scientifically backed emollient, anti-aging, and skin barrier-improving benefits resulting in a bouncy complexion, improved elasticity, and diminished wrinkles. Shoppers are singing its praises, too; one person raved it “gives a whole day [of] hydration” while reducing fine lines. “My serums and moisturizers go on beautifully after glazing my skin with this magnificent liquid,” another reviewer enthused.
