Lipids in the skin are not replenished in one week — it is a gradual process where each daily application adds a layer. For those with dry skin who are already familiar with Intensive Moisture Balance, reordering the standard size is not a question of if, but when. A larger size brings that moment forward in time and lowers the price per milliliter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Dermalogica Intensive Moisture Balance in the 100 ml size is developed precisely for this situation. The volume lasts on average five to six months with twice daily use — almost half a year of continuity for the skin barrier, without a reorder in between. Per milliliter, this is significantly more cost-effective than the 50 ml standard size, and the BioReplenish Complex with ceramides, phytosterols, and fatty acids remains actively nourishing the barrier throughout that entire period. For those who know their dry skin needs this formula, this is the logical intermediate step towards full routine certainty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold\"\u003eBenefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMore cost-effective per milliliter than the 50 ml standard size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSupply for five to six months with twice daily use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBioReplenish Complex builds cumulative barrier repair over the entire usage period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLess packaging waste per milliliter used than a smaller size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSuitable for shared use within a household or by a partner with the same skin needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eActive ingredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBioReplenish Complex:\u003c\/strong\u003e With a size that lasts six months, the BioReplenish Complex really gets the time to fully show its effect. The complex contains ceramides, phytosterols, palmitic acid, myristic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid — a combination that exactly mimics the building blocks of a healthy skin barrier. Lipid repair is a process of months, not weeks. Those who use this cream continuously for half a year build a skin barrier that is structurally stronger and less permeable than at the start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCeramide NP:\u003c\/strong\u003e One of the three main components of the natural skin barrier, alongside cholesterol and fatty acids. In dry and mature skin, the natural ceramide production decreases, resulting in a thinner, more sensitive barrier. Topical application of Ceramide NP replenishes this deficit cumulatively — a process that only fully works with long-term daily use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrebiotic chlorella algae complex:\u003c\/strong\u003e The ingredient that nourishes the natural skin microbiome. A healthy microbiome is a collection of billions of good bacteria on the skin that protect the barrier against harmful influences. With long-term use over months, a more resilient microbiome develops, which translates into skin that is less reactive and recovers faster from minor irritations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHyaluronic acid complex in multiple molecular sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sodium hyaluronate and hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate work at different skin levels. With daily use over half a year, a significantly higher moisture retention builds up in the stratum corneum — an effect you only notice when you skip the product for a few days and feel the difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCentella Asiatica:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Asian herbal extract containing triterpenoids that stimulate collagen production and counteract irritations. Centella has a cumulative effect — with long-term use over months, it contributes to skin repair that goes beyond superficial hydration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEchinacea Purpurea:\u003c\/strong\u003e A plant extract with antioxidant properties that strengthens the skin against external stress. With continuous use over a long period, better resilience builds up against the cumulative damage of UV light and air pollution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAloe vera and rose blossom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two soothing plant ingredients that calm the skin and provide mild hydration. Aloe forms a thin protective film, rose blossom adds the characteristic mild floral scent that makes the cream pleasant to wear with daily use over months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVitamin C (Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate) and Vitamin E (Tocopherol):\u003c\/strong\u003e Two antioxidants that work together to neutralize free radicals. With long-term use, the cumulative effect builds a healthier, more even skin tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLactic acid in low concentration:\u003c\/strong\u003e A mild AHA that supports skin renewal without exfoliating at this concentration. Provides a slight evening effect that translates into smoother skin texture with long-term use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSunflower oil and phytosterols:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant lipids that strengthen the BioReplenish Complex and provide additional fatty acids to the skin barrier.

For those who use Intensive Moisture Balance daily, this means a noticeable saving annually. Additionally, you need to reorder less often — on average once every five to six months instead of once every three months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHow long does a 100 ml tube last with daily use?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWith twice daily use by one person, a 100 ml tube lasts on average five to six months. With shared use by two adults, three months. If you use it only in the morning or evening, this extends up to a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eDoes the BioReplenish Complex remain active throughout the entire usage period?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eYes. The formula is stably developed and remains fully active long after opening, provided the tube is stored in a dry place at room temperature. The shelf life after opening is indicated on the packaging — more than enough for one user over a six-month period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eIs this large size suitable for those who have not used Intensive Moisture Balance before?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFor a first introduction, we recommend the 15 ml or 50 ml size instead. The 100 ml size is an investment for those who are sure the cream suits their dry skin and experience structural results. Only then does the price advantage fully come into effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eCan I share the Intensive Moisture Balance with my partner?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eCertainly, that is a common reason to choose the 100 ml size. The cream is suitable for all normal to dry skin types and can be used without problems by two adults. Keep in mind that the tube will then last about three months instead of six.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHow does the effect differ between long-term use and a few weeks of use?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAfter a few days, you notice an immediate improvement in hydration and skin comfort. After four to six weeks, fine lines caused by dryness are visibly reduced. After three to six months — exactly the period this size lasts — the skin barrier is structurally stronger. The skin retains moisture better, feels less tight, and reacts less sensitively to climate factors or cosmetic actives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHow should I best store the tube?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eStore the tube at room temperature in a dry place, out of direct sunlight. A bathroom cabinet or bedroom drawer is ideal. Avoid storage on a windowsill or near a heat source. The tube is deliberately designed to protect the contents from light exposure — the five-layer packaging with EVOH layer keeps oxygen out and preserves the function of the sensitive lipids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eCan I also combine this size with a retinol routine over a longer period?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eEspecially suitable. With long-term retinol use, the skin barrier is gradually stressed — exactly what the BioReplenish Complex compensates for. Those who use retinol for six months ideally have six months of ceramide replenishment to keep the barrier balanced. This tube offers exactly that period in one purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dermalogica","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56635739668811,"sku":null,"price":87.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/6908\/7307\/files\/0b297162763d07d58da6ff1ee09b740fdc292462.jpg?v=1779226596","url":"https:\/\/webshop.glamskin.nl\/en\/products\/dermalogica-intensive-moisture-balance-100ml","provider":"Glam Skin Webshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
