dermalogica product
The calculation of the BioActivity Scores for customized combinations is done by taking an average of the Dermalogica products selected. To calculate the BioActivity Score of Daily Microfoliant® when mixed with MultiVitamin Power Exfoliant, add the BioActivity Scores of the individual products and divide by the number of products mixed, which is 2. For example:
level 1
Daily Microfoliant® (5) + MultiVitamin Power Exfoliant (25) = 30 30 divided by 2 (the number of products) = 15 Therefore, the customized combination of Daily Microfoliant® and MultiVitamin Power Exfoliant has a BioActivity Score of 15. When mixing Daily Microfoliant with Exfoliant Accelerator 35 the calculation is: Daily Microfoliant® (5) + Exfoliant Accelerator 35 (35) = 40 40 divided by 2 (the number of products) = 20 ®
