dry & dehydrated skincare

Earlier in November, I was on holiday with my significant other, J in Australia. Even though it was summer in Melbourne and Sydney at that point of time, the temperature was around 10 - 13 degrees still.

Read on to find out more about the products that we used to combat dry skin in Australia!



Non-Drying Cleansing Lotion

therapeutic dermatologic formula non drying cleansing lotion

What is it:

Dryness and dehydration are precursors to sensitised skin - characterised by uneven texture, flakiness and a feeling of tightness. Go extra gentle with this cleanser which is specially formulated for delicate sensitive skin. It gives a thorough cleanse without irritating skin and at the same time protects your skin’s natural moisture barrier.

Directions:

Apply a liberal amount to skin surface or as directed by your physician. Massage gently to soften and remove dirt and other impurities. Rinse well and pat dry with a soft towel. Use together with the TDF Dry & Dehydrated regime for better results.

Ingredients:

Humectant (Propylene Glycol, Cetearyl Alcohol)

My thoughts:

Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula Non-Drying Cleansing Lotion has got to be one of my favourite product from this range. I like how it doesn't make my skin feel tight or dry after cleansing. It has a non-soapy formula which is gentle on the skin.

Skin Freshener

What is it:

Refresh and double-cleanse skin with this soothing formula which helps to condition skin in preparation for proper moisture absorption. The citrus fragrance toner adjusts your skin to its balanced pH level, minimizes visible pores and removes excess debris or oil. Recommended for patients who should not use acetone or alcohol.

Directions:

Soak a cotton pad and apply to required areas or as directed by your physician. Use together with the TDF Dry & Dehydrated regime for better results.

Ingredients:

Humectant (Propylene Glycol, Sodium PCA)

My thoughts:

I like how Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula Skin Freshener doesn't contain alcohol as I don't really fancy toners with alcohol content. It feels gentle on the skin and doesn't make my skin sting or feel tight after application.

Light Textured Moisturizer

therapeutic dermatologic formula light texturized moisturizer

What is it:

This is a fragrance-free, sheer, lightweight moisturiser which provides immediate and long-lasting hydration for normal and dry skin types. It locks in moisture and prevents further moisture loss, thereby improving skin texture and overall clarity. Regular use repairs and strengthens the protective barrier of dry stressed skin, leaving your skin incomparably soft. Also excellent as a makeup base.

Directions:

Apply sparingly to damp skin after thorough cleansing or as directed by your physician. Use together with the TDF Dry & Dehydrated regime for better results.

Ingredients:

Emollient (Isopropyl Palmitate, Glyceryl Stearate), Humectant (Propylene Glycol, Sodium PCA)

My thoughts:

Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula Light Texturized Moisturizer is another of my favourite product from this range. I like how it doesn't feel sticky after application and how it keeps both the SO and my skin from peeling while we were traveling in Australia.

PA+++ UVA/UVB SPF 50+ Sunscreen 50g

Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula (TDF) Age Defense System Sunscreen

What is it:

This high performance sunscreen provides maximum blockage against age-inducing UVA and harmful UVB rays with PA+++ rating and ultra microfine zinc oxide. It is clinically proven to protect your skin from sunburns, skin darkening and future photo damage. Enriched with CoQ10, a powerful antioxidant, this silky and lightweight cream improves the overall skin texture for a healthier and more radiant complexion. Non-whitening, non-oily and fragrance free, this sunscreen is suitable for all skin types.

Directions:

Apply generously to dry skin before sun exposure. Smooth evenly on all exposed areas. Reapply after swimming or excessive perspiration or as directed by your physician. Use together with the TDF Age Defense System for better results.

Ingredients:

CoQ10 (Ubiquinone), Vitamin C (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate), Squalane, Sunscreen Agent (Octinoxate/Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Zinc Oxide), Emollient (Hydrogenated Palm Glycerides, Cyclopentasiloxane, Cyclomethicone, Caprylyl Glycol)

My thoughts:

I like how Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula (TDF) Age Defense System Sunscreen blends into my skin easily and how it does not leave a white cast after application. Best of all, it doesn't feel oily nor it is drying on my skin.

On lazy days or on weekends, I usually have just TDF Age Defense System Sunscreen slapped on my face before leaving home. On normal work days, I follow up with my regular base makeup after applying TDF Age Defense System Sunscreen.

RSE Cream

therapeutic dermatologic formula RSE cream

What is it:

Soothe the thirstiest skin with this overnight therapy – an ultra-hydrating, antioxidant-rich moisturiser designed to combat chronically dry and prematurely ageing skin conditions. This heavyweight cream is enriched with squalane, vitamin A and vitamin E to strengthen skin’s protective barrier, prevent free radical damage and calm irritated skin. It works all night to regenerate, repair and replenish skin for firmer, smoother, younger-looking skin by morning.

Directions:

Apply all over face and neck twice a day after thorough cleansing or as directed by your physician. Use together with the TDF Dry & Dehydrated regime for better results.

Ingredients:

Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate), Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate), Squalane, Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii), Carrot (Daucus Carota Sativa) Root, Emollient (Sorbitan Stearate, Cyclopentasiloxane), Humectant (Glycerin), Skin Conditioning Agent (Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride)

My thoughts:

Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula RSE Cream is slightly thicker in formula compared to Ultra Light Moisturizer. Even though it is cream-based, it doesn't cause breakouts on me.

On days that I was exposed to strong winds particularly when traveling along Great Ocean Road, I layer RSE Cream over Ultra Light Moisturizer for extra protection.

Hydrating Treatment Mask

therapeutic dermatologic formula hydrating treatment mask

What is it:

Soothe stressed skin with this refreshing mask which helps skin recover from damage and promotes healthy tissue regeneration. It is packed with calming botanicals and antioxidant vitamins to replenish moisture at the critical dehydrated areas and reduce skin irritation. Natural earth clays kaolin and bentonite are also added to detoxify your skin for a clearer and more refined complexion.

Directions:

Apply desired amount of mask to cleansed face and neck with finger tips, brush or as directed by your physician. Leave on for 15-20 minutes. Rinse off with lukewarm water. Use together with the TDF Dry & Dehydrated regime for better results.

Ingredients:

Avocado (Persea Gratissima) Oil, Chamomile Oil Extract (Bisabolol), Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate), Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Methylsilanol Pectinate), Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate), Absorbent (Kaolin, Bentonite, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate), Emollient (Ethylhexyl Hydroxystearate, Glyceryl Oleate), Humectant (Glycerin, Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer), Skin Conditioning Agent (Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride)

My thoughts:

I use Therapeutic Dermatologic Hydrating Treatment Mask once to twice a week. After cleansing and toning, I apply it onto my face and leave on for 15-20 minutes before cleansing it off with water. I like how relaxing the chamomile scent is.

C-scape Serum

therapeutic dermatologic formula C scape serum

What is it:

Achieve dramatically younger looking skin with this antioxidant-rich treatment containing vitamin C in its purest form. This ultra-concentrated treatment repairs damaged skin, combats harmful free radicals and boosts collagen production. It is effective in diminishing visible signs of aging, inhibiting pigmentation formation and lightening the appearance of age spots and freckles. Skin appears plump, even-toned, soft and radiant.

Directions:

Apply sparingly to face and neck in the morning and night after cleansing and toning. May be used immediately after chemical peel, non-ablative laser, IPL or facial procedures. Use together with the TDF Age Defense System for better results.

Ingredients:

Vitamin C (Methylsilanol Ascorbate), Humectant (Propylene Glycol)

My thoughts:

I store Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula (TDF) C Scape Serum in my fridge so upon application, it feels very cooling on my face.

I like how it helps to even out my skin tone and best of all, it helped to reduce the sizes of my pores!
