Dermalogica Super Rich Repair Moisturizer 100ml
Description
Description
Nourishing day cream large size for dry skin
Those with chronically dry skin know the pattern: a reliable cream that works, a tube that runs out every three months, and the quiet calculation of what a year of treatment-level care actually costs. The 100ml large size of Super Rich Repair Moisturizer is formulated for that customer — not as a luxury, but as logic. The same formula that skin therapists have prescribed for years, in a size that makes regular use financially feasible.
The jumbo version offers significantly more milliliters per euro than the regular size, which makes a noticeable difference over a year with daily or even twice-daily use. The formula is identical to the 50ml: the same heavyweight treatment cream with shea butter, evening primrose oil, peptides, and barrier-repairing ingredients. The difference lies in continuity — no interruptions in your routine because you need to order a new tube, no seasons where you temporarily switch to something lighter because the rich cream is finished. For those who know this moisturizer and know it works: the most sensible size.
Benefits

- Long supply at home prevents interruptions in your routine

- Combines deep nourishment, anti-aging peptides, and soothing effects in one cream
Active Ingredients
Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii): One of the most nourishing plant butters in skincare, rich in oleic acid, stearic acid, linoleic acid, and vitamins A and E. Shea butter replenishes the lipid layer that chronically dry skin structurally lacks, locks in moisture tightly, and immediately after application provides a noticeably softer, fuller skin feel. With long-term use — which becomes realistic with a jumbo size — shea butter also improves skin elasticity and slowly restores the barrier function.
Evening Primrose Oil (Oenothera Biennis) & Borage Oil (Borago Officinalis): Two plant oils with the highest natural concentration of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid the skin cannot produce itself. GLA is scientifically linked to improvements in chronically dry, sensitive, and eczema-prone skin. It strengthens the barrier from within and helps the skin retain water better — an ingredient that shows its structural effect especially with consistent, long-term use.
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 & Arginine/Lysine Polypeptide: Two peptides that stimulate the skin to produce collagen. In chronically dry skin, fine lines appear earlier because the skin loses volume and firmness. Peptides work not in days but in months — the type of ingredient that truly justifies a large size because the effect builds up over weeks of consistent use.
Madecassoside (Centella Asiatica): A soothing ingredient from the tiger grass plant, recognized in Asian dermatology for centuries for skin repair and barrier strengthening. Madecassoside reduces redness, supports wound healing at the micro level, and helps the skin bounce back stronger after exposure to irritants such as cold, wind, or dry indoor air.
Colloidal Oatmeal & Oat Extract (Avena Sativa): Officially recognized by the FDA as a skin-protecting ingredient. Colloidal oatmeal forms an invisible film on the skin surface that soothes irritation, reduces itching, and shields the skin from external triggers. A reassuring ingredient for sensitive dry skin that feels reactive quickly.
Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate) & Urea: A combination of two different moisturizers. Hyaluronic acid draws water to the outer skin layers; urea penetrates a bit deeper and is used in dermatological creams for very dry skin and thickened skin areas. Together they provide hydration at different skin levels.
Apple Seed Extract (Pyrus Malus) & Yeast Extract: An acid-free smoothing complex that refines skin texture without the sensitivity that AHAs or BHAs can cause in dry skin. A valuable alternative for those who want a smoother complexion but cannot tolerate exfoliating acids.
Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia Chinensis): A plant wax whose molecular structure closely resembles the skin’s natural sebum. Jojoba is therefore excellently absorbed and helps balance the lipid layer — an ingredient that makes the heavy texture wearable without feeling heavy or greasy.
Allantoin: A soothing ingredient that calms the skin and supports the repair of irritated or damaged skin areas. Especially nice during transition periods when the skin is extra reactive — cold spells, after intensive treatments, or hormonal fluctuations.
Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate): A fat-soluble antioxidant that protects skin cells from oxidative damage. In a formula with so many plant oils, vitamin E also plays an important role in the stability and shelf life of the product itself — a consideration for a larger size that is used over a longer period.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the formula of the 100ml identical to the 50ml?
Yes, exactly the same formula. The same shea butter, evening primrose oil, peptides, and soothing ingredients in the same concentrations. The only difference is the packaging size — and thus the price per milliliter, which is significantly more favorable with the 100ml.
How long does 100ml last approximately?
With once-daily use, 100ml lasts on average six to eight months. With twice-daily use (morning and evening, which many customers with very dry skin follow), it lasts about four to five months. Keep in mind the official PAO (Period After Opening) of twelve months — well within the usage period.
Is a jumbo size worthwhile if I don’t know this product yet?
No, in that case the 50ml is wiser or, even better, the travel size of 15ml. With chronically dry skin, it is important to first experience whether the heavy texture works for you. Only switch to the 100ml once this has truly become your regular day cream.
Do I still need sun protection when using this cream?
Yes. Super Rich Repair Moisturizer contains no SPF. Always apply a separate sun protection in the morning after the cream. For dry skin, Dynamic Skin Recovery SPF50 fits well here — the same product line, complementary effect.
Is the pump of the jumbo bottle as easy to use as the 50ml?
The 100ml also has a pump mechanism that dispenses the right amount per press. For rich creams like this, Dermalogica advises not to focus on the number of pumps but on the amount: a portion the size of a dime is sufficient for face and neck.
Can I use the cream on multiple areas — for example, also on the décolleté or hands?
Very well. Many customers with dry skin extend use to the décolleté, neck, and hands. Especially in a jumbo size, this is realistic without worries about product consumption. The skin in these areas also loses firmness and moisture faster and benefits from the same nourishing effect as the face.
How do I best store the 100ml?
Store the cream at room temperature, out of direct sunlight, and with the pump tightly closed. For longer storage periods — which can occur with a jumbo size — a cool, dark place (not a refrigerator) is ideal for the stability of the plant oils and peptides in the formula.
Is this cream suitable for customers recovering from chemotherapy or medical treatments?
Many customers choose Super Rich Repair Moisturizer during and after intensive medical treatments because the skin often becomes structurally dry and sensitive during those periods. The soothing combination of oats, madecassoside, and allantoin makes the cream suitable for recovery periods. Always consult your treating physician or skin therapist if in doubt.
