Dermalogica UltraCalming Mist 177ml

Soothing facial mist for sensitive reactive skin

Sensitive skin can become unbalanced even between routine steps. The moment between cleansing and applying serum is a vulnerable transition for reactive skin: the skin is freshly washed, moisture balance is disturbed, and it can feel tight or flare up with localized redness within seconds. An intermediate step that soothes the skin while preparing it for the next products makes the difference between discomfort and comfort at such a moment.

The Dermalogica UltraCalming Mist 177ml is designed precisely for that intermediate step. A light hydrating mist with the UltraCalming Complex that is sprayed immediately after cleansing to soothe the skin, retain moisture, and build it up for the rest of the routine. The vegan formula absorbs in seconds, feels cooling on heated skin, and can be reapplied throughout the day after hair removal, after exfoliation, or as a refresh over makeup.

Advantages

• Reduces visible redness and irritation immediately after spraying
• Vegan formula without synthetic fragrances
• Prepares the skin for better absorption of serum and moisturizer
• Can be used as an intermediate step, after hair removal, after exfoliation, or as a refresh over makeup
• Suitable for all skin types, with specific benefits for sensitive and dehydrated skin

Active ingredients

UltraCalming Complex with Oat: Dermalogica’s signature complex combines oat extract with calming botanical actives. Oat is known in dermatology as one of the gentlest anti-irritant ingredients and helps make the skin more resilient against external triggers such as temperature changes and pollution.

Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera): Aloe vera is a classic soothing ingredient that supports the skin’s natural moisture balance. It provides immediate cooling to heated or overstimulated skin and contributes to a healthy-feeling skin barrier.

Boerhavia Diffusa Root Extract: A traditional Ayurvedic ingredient studied for its anti-inflammatory properties. In this formula, it helps to soothe the signaling substances of skin reactivity in reactive skin and skin that flushes easily.

Bisabolol: An active from the chamomile family that soothes the skin and reduces visible sensitivity. Bisabolol makes this mist especially suitable for use after an exfoliating treatment or hair removal.

Hydroxyphenyl Propamidobenzoic Acid (Symcalmin): A targeted active ingredient that reduces redness and itching in sensitive skin by intervening in the signaling substances that cause these reactions. With daily use, you will see the average reactivity of the skin decrease.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the UltraCalming Mist as a toner?

Yes. You can spray the mist onto a clean cotton pad and apply it to the face with gentle upward movements, or spray directly and press it into the skin. Both methods work as a calming toner step in the routine.

Can I use the mist over my makeup?

Absolutely. A light spritz over makeup refreshes the skin and hydrates in between. Keep about twenty centimeters away and let the mist dry completely before continuing.

Is this mist suitable for use immediately after a professional treatment or hair removal?

Yes, this application is even specifically recommended. The UltraCalming Complex and bisabolol soothe the skin after exfoliation, IPL, microneedling, or waxing and help quickly reduce discomfort.
