Should I purchase the EDS Dermalogica Normal-Dry skin care kit with smaller sample sizes or jump right in and buy the large sizes Shock I am having a skin consultation at the EDS spa on Friday, guess that will help me out.
I am interested in:
Dermalogica
special cleansing gel
gentle cream exfoliant (daily??)
daily microfoliant (weekly)
sheer moisture SPF15 (day)
skin smoothing cream
or intensive moisturebalance (night)

What does everyone think? Am I missing anything? Do I need a toner?

Thanks!!! Very Happy

I definitely think that you should wait till your EDS consultation before you buy anything - it IS only a day away Smile

In terms of the routine you posted, I think the microfoliant might be the product you'd use daily and the gentle cream exfoliant weekly. Although, I don't know if you need so much exfoliation - I'd get just one or the other....

I, too, would wait for your appointment.

But I also thing Sample/Trial sizes are an awesome why to make sure your skin agrees with a product before spending the "big bucks" for full-size products.

Thanks everyone Very Happy

I am going to wait for the consultation, just thought it would be better if I had some ideas of what I wanted/needed going in. Since I do feel like a complete boob when it comes to caring for my skin Embarassed Hello, I have been using Clinique and thinking I was soooo great Shock

As for the exfoliation, I had it backwards Laughing Yes, use the daily microfoliant "daily" Idea But I do like the idea of the cream exfoliant to get down deeper and penetrate my skin to clear out any blackheads Exclamation

The Dr H CC seems to be incredibly popular to "get down deeper and penetrate my skin to clear out any blackheads".
