I think they are essentially the same thing, but there's bad blood between the companies and founders/inventors.
I've used Epidermix II, talked w/ Amy on the phone, and just in general like her philosophy. I'd definitely choose EII. Also, you can get it here from EDS. |

| You can't go wrong with EpidermX! I've been using it for a few years now and still love it. Plus, like tjsmom said, Amy of EpidermX is AMAZING and really sweet and helpful. |

| BCIW, the "balling up" was a characteristic of the old formula for EpidermX. The new formula doesn't do that, so don't worry--- you aren't doing anything wrong. |

Hi - I've used both!
The microdermx is very much like the original Epidermx but they reformulated I believe and I cannot use it any more.
I tried it because I adored the original Epidermx and found that the EpidermxII seemed to break me out a little but out of the two I would go for the EpidermxII - I just use a little cleanser on my chin (which is where I am prone to breakouts) after using it and its been great. I avoid using either on my cheeks as I am prone to broken caps/redness/sensitivity but its a great product and very gentle.
