Dermalogica Super Rich Repair anti-aging face moisturizer — very dry skin, deep hydration & barrier repair

Dermalogica Super Rich Repair is a heavyweight, anti-aging face moisturizer designed to intensely hydrate and reinforce the skin barrier for chronically dry or dehydrated skin.

Formulated as a rich treatment cream, Super Rich Repair targets persistent dryness while supporting skin resilience and comfort. It combines emollient butters and oils with peptides and antioxidants to replenish lipids, soothe sensitivity, and help skin look firmer and more elastic. Use as your daily morning and evening cream when lightweight lotions aren’t enough and you need long-lasting nourishment that protects against environmental challenges.

How does Super Rich Repair restore moisture to very dry skin?

The formula uses concentrated emollients to seal in water and restore the lipid layer that helps keep moisture from evaporating. Shea butter and evening primrose oil smooth and recondition dry areas, while humectant action draws water into the skin for immediate comfort.

• Heavyweight, occlusive texture that reduces transepidermal water loss.
• Shea butter and evening primrose oil replenish barrier lipids.
• Fast-absorbing finish that leaves skin supple, not greasy.

What anti-aging benefits does this moisturizer provide?

Alongside deep hydration, Super Rich Repair includes peptides and antioxidants that support skin tone and elasticity. These ingredients assist in minimizing the appearance of fine lines by improving the skin’s ability to recover and retain a smoother surface over time.

• Peptides help support firmness and surface texture.
• Antioxidants help protect against free-radical stress from the environment.
• Allantoin soothes and calms irritated, dry complexions.

How should I apply it within my skincare routine?

Apply a small, pea-to-nickel-sized amount of cream to cleansed face and neck using upward strokes. Allow it to fully absorb before applying sunscreen or makeup; for very dry nights, use a slightly thicker layer as an overnight treatment.

• Use morning and night for consistent barrier support.
• Layer under SPF during the day once absorbed.
• For targeted dry patches, gently massage a little extra into problem areas.

Will this work for sensitive or reactive dry skin?

Super Rich Repair is formulated to be soothing while delivering intense nourishment, with ingredients like allantoin that calm and reduce surface irritation. If you have known sensitivities, patch-test first or consult a skincare professional, but the product is designed to help strengthen and protect compromised, dry skin.

• Allantoin included to soothe and support comfort.
• Restorative lipids help reduce environmental sensitivity over time.
• Non-stripping approach—meant to rebuild rather than dry out skin.

Who this is for: Dermalogica Super Rich Repair is aimed at people with chronically dry, dehydrated, or compromised skin that needs substantial, long-lasting moisture and barrier repair. Choose this cream if light lotions leave your skin tight, if you experience flaking or rough patches, or when seasonal or environmental factors demand a heavier, restorative moisturizer. It’s suitable for use by those focused on improving texture and resilience while minimizing visible signs of aging caused by dryness.
