Dermokil: Beauty from Clay, Care Supported by Science
Dermokil is a skin and hair care brand that started with the motto "Beauty from Clay" and has become a leading local brand in Turkey's clay mask category. Its founding philosophy is based on the natural purifying, balancing, and tightening power of clay; however, today Dermokil is not just a clay brand. With over 230 formulas developed with active ingredients supported by dermatology, such as hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, kojic acid, vitamin C, bakuchiol, AHA+BHA, tea tree oil, rose water, rice ferment, rosemary, biotin, keratin, and copper tripeptide, Dermokil creates one of Turkey's most comprehensive local portfolios in skin care, hair care, body care, and sun protection. With prices starting from 40 TL, Dermokil continues to prove that effective care does not require a high budget.
Clay: The Essence and Expertise of Dermokil
The power of clay on the skin is based on a scientific foundation. Negatively charged clay molecules attract positively charged toxins, excess sebum, dirt, and bacterial residues from the skin through electromagnetic adsorption. With a pH of 8, clay neutralizes the acidic environment in the mouth and on the skin surface, suppressing bacterial growth. Its low abrasive structure allows it to be used safely even on sensitive skin. Based on these properties, Dermokil uses five different types of clay in its formulas:
Pink Clay offers the most balanced purification for combination and sensitive skin, tightens the appearance of pores, and revitalizes the skin. White Clay (Kaolin) has the lowest abrasive ratio among all clay types; it is safe even for the most sensitive skin with its gentle cleansing that minimizes the risk of irritation. Green Clay deeply absorbs excess oil, toxins, and environmental pollutants in the pores with its strongest adsorption capacity; it is preferred for intensely oily and clogged skin. Red Clay, with its high iron oxide content, balances acne bacteria, soothes inflamed areas, and helps even out skin tone. Black Clay works as a toxin hunter in formulas fortified with activated carbon and bentonite; it offers the most dramatic cleansing experience in peel-off masks.
Skin Care: Dermokil for Every Step of the Routine
Effective skincare involves using the right products in the right order. Dermokil offers coordinated formulas for every step of the routine, from cleansing to masks, toners, serums, moisturizers, and sun protection.
Cleansing: Facial cleansing gels, micellar waters, and cleansing foams with tea tree oil (acne and oil control), kojic acid and vitamin C (anti-spot), rice ferment (brightening), rose water (gentle moisturizing), AHA+BHA (renewing), and hemp seed oil (intensely moisturizing) meet the morning and evening cleansing needs of different skin types.
Toner and Spray: Toners and facial sprays containing rose water, tea tree oil, kojic acid, rice ferment, AHA+BHA, and hyaluronic acid re-establish the skin's pH balance after cleansing, tighten the appearance of pores, and enhance the effectiveness of subsequent steps.
Serum: Five different concentrated serum formulas containing hyaluronic acid (moisture and plumpness), vitamin C (brightening and antioxidant), tea tree oil, and activated carbon (anti-acne) provide targeted active care. Serum is layered from the thinnest consistency to the densest after toner and before moisturizer.
Moisturizer: Stick moisturizers, 3D capsule creams, SPF 30 fluid creams, and eye creams containing collagen, hyaluronic acid, kojic acid, tea tree oil, bakuchiol, rice ferment, and vitamin C provide appropriate moisture support for every skin type and time of day with 14 different formulas.
Clay Mask: The most intensive step of all care routines. Over 60 clay mask formulas, created by adding matcha, kojic acid, coffee extract, tea tree oil, rice ferment, hemp oil, bakuchiol, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, collagen, and vitamin C to basic pink clay, green clay, white clay, red clay, and black clay formulas, constitute Turkey's richest portfolio in this category. They are offered in five different formats: tube, stick, mini pack, peel-off, and sheet mask.
Peeling: Chemical exfoliation applied 1-2 times a week with enzyme powder peeling containing AHA+BHA+Niacinamide, hyaluronic enzyme powder peeling, and 3-in-1 peeling mask formula accelerates cell renewal, evens skin tone, and increases the penetration of active products.
Sunscreen: SPF 50+ Protection and Active Care Combined
Dermokil's SPF 50+ sunscreen collection makes sunscreen much more than a simple protector. 13 formulas, including pink tone-evening fluid cream, anti-brown spot fluid, calamine-containing oil-balancing cream, ceramide-supported daily care stick, vitamin C anti-spot stick, bronzing shimmer stick, broad-spectrum sun spray, SPF 50+++ spray for children, and after-sun gel, offer both UVA+UVB protection and active care such as anti-spot, tone-evening, or ceramide support. Anti-spot actives used without sunscreen are inactivated by UV exposure; therefore, Dermokil's spot series always concludes the morning routine with an SPF 50+ product.
Anti-Spot Skin Care: Kojic Acid, Rice Ferment, and Vitamin C
Among the most common skin problems in Turkey are sun spots, acne scars, and general uneven skin tone. Dermokil targets these problems with active intervention at every step of the routine. Formulas containing kojic acid, stabilized vitamin C (3-O Ethyl Ascorbic Acid), rice ferment, alpha arbutin, and niacinamide; anti-spot actives are spread throughout the entire routine, from cleansing gel to toner, from clay mask to moisturizing cream, from body lotion to sunscreen. With regular use, skin tone brightening is observed in 2-4 weeks, and a significant reduction in the appearance of spots is observed in 6-12 weeks.
Acne and Oily Skin: Tea Tree Oil Series
Tea tree oil, derived from the Melaleuca alternifolia plant, is one of the most powerful natural actives for acne care. Dermokil's tea tree oil series enhances its antibacterial and antiseptic effects with niacinamide and salicylic acid, intervening in every stage of the acne cycle. It offers a complete anti-acne routine with micellar makeup remover, facial cleansing gel, toner, facial spray, facial serum, facial cream, clay mask (tube and stick), and sheet mask formats. The physical adsorption mechanism and antibacterial effect of tea tree oil, the sebum-regulating and pore-tightening effect of niacinamide, and the pore-cleansing property of salicylic acid together create Dermokil's most comprehensive problem-focused series.
Hair Care: From Hair Loss to Dandruff, Damage to Volume
Dermokil's hair care portfolio establishes a systematic care system with four different problem-focused series in the shampoo, hair mask, conditioner, and hair serum categories.
Metal Detox Series targets hair loss with biotin, caffeine, and copper tripeptide. Copper tripeptide helps break the hair loss cycle by stimulating hair growth, while biotin nourishes hair roots, and caffeine supports follicle activation. Scalp Fresh Series targets the source of dandruff with selenium sulfide and salicin; it shows its effect from the first wash. Volume Up Series provides fullness to fine and lifeless hair with an amino acid complex; it strengthens hair without weighing it down. The 100% Natural Rosemary Series, with its shampoo, spray, and oil trio, stimulates hair roots by increasing blood circulation in the scalp and helps reduce hair loss.
Hair masks containing keratin, argan oil, and shea butter repair damaged hair strands; the clay and coconut oil hair mask combines both scalp and hair strand care in one product. Raspberry and vinegar toner, rosemary oil, and hair serums complete the routine care.

Dermokil's body care portfolio meets all the needs of body skin in a wide range, including hand and body creams containing avocado, olive oil, mango, and cherry blossom; repairing premium creams containing hyaluronic acid and D-panthenol; anti-spot hand and body cream containing vitamin C and niacinamide; twister body lotions containing kojic acid and rose water; aloe vera gel; shimmer body sprays; peel-off sock-type exfoliating foot masks; urea-containing heel care mask; clay and hemp oil hand and foot masks; and repairing hand masks.
