"Eucerin - Dermo PURIFYER Scrub" could be helpful for: Moisturizing, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts
This product contains acids (lactic acid 1.80% - 2.20%). Their concentration is low, and they will not have a strong exfoliating effect. Instead, they work to support the skin natural acid mantle and to attract water (as humectants). Lactic acid is particularly good in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin and improving the skin barrier.
Humectants (mannitol 0.45% - 0.65% and glycerin 1.60% - 2.00%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
Price
The product retails for 41.04CA$ in Canada, for 10.50$ in the United States and from 7.66£ up to 11.50£ in the United Kingdom.
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called
"humectants":
glycerin, mannitol.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This
is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for
ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiome)
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients.
It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin.
We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
