Dermalogica Intensive Moisture Balance Jumbo is a rich facial moisturiser that restores comfort to very dry skin. Powered by a lipid-rich BioReplenish Complex, it helps strengthen the skin’s barrier so moisture stays in and dryness stays out.
Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe and Centella asiatica work together to hydrate, calm and smooth, leaving tight, rough skin feeling supple again. The creamy texture melts in quickly without greasiness, giving a soft, cushioned finish that feels comfortable all day. Use morning and night when skin feels dry, tight or depleted, especially in cold weather or air‑conditioned spaces. Ideal for dry, very dry or moisture‑depleted skin, and those who prefer a fragrance‑light, comforting cream that brings back bounce, softness and a healthy-looking glow.
