The Derma Co Products Reviews, Price & Product List

The Derma Co is an Indian Beauty, Cosmetic & Personal Care Brand launched in 2020. It claims to provide science-backed solutions for your skin concerns for both men and women. The Derma Co is supposedly a sister brand of the infamous brand Mamaearth. With over 50 specialized products in its portfolio, it quickly gained the attention of skincare consumers. The Derma Co Products focus on providing professional solutions with active-based ingredients.

Just like any other skincare enthusiast, I was intrigued with the brand but was skeptical about its products. So I choose to get their samples on Smytten App. I picked three products that were deluxe-sized. These were enough to give me an idea about them. Read on to know my experience with The Derma Co.

The Derma Co Products Review

1. The Derma Co Creamy Face Cleanser

Product Type: It’s a soap-free, creamy cleanser that helps to remove the accumulation of dirt, oil & impurities while leaving the skin hydrated.

Ideal For: Sensitive, Dry, Dehydrated Skin.

Texture: Glassy, lotion-like texture. Very much similar to the Cetaphil cleanser and CleanseMe cleanser.

Fragrance: It is fragrance-free and doesn’t have any smell to it.

My Experience: Gel-based face washes are stripping for my combination skin. So I use such creamy non-foaming cleansers on a daily basis. They are not new to me. The Derma Co Cleanser pretty much works like the Cetaphil cleanser. It does not foam up and goes on like a lotion. I use a coin size amount for the face and neck. It washes off easily and doesn’t leave any film behind. My skin feels fresh and clean after using this cleanser. It doesn’t dry out the skin and leaves my skin mildly hydrated. Overall, It’s a good, non-foaming, non-drying cleanser that does its job perfectly. It’s definitely a great cleanser with minimal ingredients.

But I cannot stop myself from comparing it to my favorite CleanseMe Cleanser. I find the CleanseMe to be better for my skin as it’s a tad bit more hydrating. The Derma Co is free of silicones and parabens but contains SLS. While CleanseMe doesn’t contain any of those, but additionally contains skin-soothing Oat Kernal Flour & Allantoin to boost its effectiveness. Above all, it’s also a bit cheaper than the Derma Co Cleanser. Personally, I like the CleanseMe more.

2. The Derma Co 10% Niacinamide Serum

Product Type: It’s a Niacinamide Serum that helps to fight acne, reduce acne marks, and control oil production.

Ideal For: Acne & Blemish Prone Skin.

Texture: It’s a clear, water-like serum that gets absorbed quickly.

Fragrance: It has added fragrance. It’s very mildly scented and hasn’t bothered me at all.

My Experience: Its lightweight, non-sticky, watery texture is what makes it stand out. It’s as clear as water. The serum is thinner than the Minimalist Niacinamide Serum making it an ideal choice for oily to very oily skin types. The serum vanishes into the skin super quickly. I’ve used this for about two weeks in my PM routine. I felt that it helped a little in fading my acne marks. However, what I loved the most is it made my skin softer and kept my pores clear noticeably giving an even skin tone. I didn’t experience any purging. But then I was using a 4% Niacinamide Moisturizer prior to this. So my skin is used Niacinamide, in general. Overall I did enjoy using this product.

However, I wouldn’t repurchase it. Not everyone needs a 10% Niacinamide Serum. Niacinamide works well even at 4-5%. As someone is who trying to minimize my skincare routine, I wouldn’t invest in an exclusive Niacinamide Serum unless I have a major acne problem & excess oil production which isn’t the case for my combination skin. Most products tend to have Niacinamide as one of their ingredients.

3. The Derma Co Ceramide + HA Intense Face Moisturizer

Product Type: Supercharged with Ceramides & HA, it is a face moisturizer that claims to lock in moisture for upto 72 hours.

Ideal For: Normal & Combination Skin Types.

Texture: It has a rich gel-cream texture. It’s quite thick in consistency.

Fragrance: It has fragrance added to it. It is on the last ingredient list, so it must be in a small percentage. Nonetheless, it has a barely noticeable fragrance. It could easily pass off as an unscented product.

My Experience: This moisturizer is marketed for dry skin types. In my experience, I feel it might be less nourishing for dry skin types. On another side, it might be heavy for oily skin types. I have combination skin with dry cheeks and oily T zone and I felt that it wasn’t moisturizing enough for my cheeks. However, it worked better with a hydrating toner underneath. It locked in the moisture and my skin felt nicely hydrated. I just needed a pea size for my face and neck. It blends and gets absorbed very quickly. It has a mattifying effect on the skin and is absolutely non-sticky. I loved how lightweight it was on my skin.

The moisturizer has 3 types of ceramides and cholesterol, all of which are great for soothing and strengthening the skin barrier. However, it should be noted that they are in very small percentages, occupying the last part of the ingredient list, coming after phenoxyethanol. Phenoxyethanol is a preservative that’s used at 1%. In fact, all the good ingredients such as Hyaluronic acid, oat flour, panthenol, come after the preservative.

The Derma Co Moisturizer is often compared with the Re’equil Ceramide & Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer which comes at half the price of this. Overall, it’s a pretty decent moisturizer for combination to dry skin during summer & monsoon.

Overall Thoughts on The Derma Co

I’m amazed by the number of products they have in their portfolio and the frequent launches of new products now and then. I was skeptical about the brand, in the beginning, surprisingly I had a good experience with it. However, I do feel that their products are replaceable. The Indian market is saturated with so many active based products and this brand just falls under that category. The pricing is decent, not very highly-priced, and is often available at discounts. Some products have the potential to become one’s HG (Holy Grail).
