Best Diego dalla Palma Products for Dry Skin
8 Diego dalla Palma picks that actually work on dry skin — ranked by editor rating, not by what the brand pushes hardest. Updated 2026.
Diego dalla Palma is one of Italy's most recognizable makeup artists — a fixture of Italian television in the 1970s and 80s, author of beauty books, and the man who taught Italian women how to do their own makeup. He launched his eponymous brand in 1980 in Milan as a professional makeup line, and the skincare expansion in the 1990s has since grown into the dominant pillar. The Resurface, Hydro Replenishing, Revivyl, and Pure Glow lines now sit on Italian pharmacy and Sephora Italia shelves alongside La Roche-Posay and Vichy. The brand was acquired by RIGI Investimenti in 2009 and now operates separate consumer and professional lines, both with full INCI transparency. The Revivyl franchise is the modern heart of the brand — azelaic acid + niacinamide formulations that punch above their price point.
