Full details

NeoStrata Bionic Lotion is a high-strength, anti-aging moisturizer designed for adults with dry to extremely dry skin, including those with eczema. Its key benefit is providing enhanced, lightweight moisturization while helping to reduce the signs of aging and prevent environmental damage. A potential caveat is the need for daily sunscreen use, as with any exfoliating product. This fragrance-free formula features 12% Gluconolactone, 3% Lactobionic Acid, and Vitamin E, making it suitable for both face and body.

FAQs

Can NeoStrata Bionic Lotion be used on the face?

Yes, NeoStrata Bionic Lotion is suitable for use on the face, hands, and body. It is formulated to provide hydration and anti-aging benefits to all these areas.

Is this lotion suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the lotion is fragrance-free and formulated with PHAs, which are known to be gentler than traditional AHAs, making it suitable for many individuals with sensitive skin, including those with eczema.

How often should I use this lotion?

It is recommended to apply NeoStrata Bionic Lotion to your face, hands, and/or body twice daily. Gently smooth it in until absorbed.

Do I need to wear sunscreen with this product?

Yes, daily use of a sunscreen is strongly recommended when using this product, as exfoliating acids like Gluconolactone and Lactobionic Acid can increase skin's sensitivity to the sun.

What are the main active ingredients and their benefits?

The main active ingredients are 12% Gluconolactone and 3% Lactobionic Acid, which are Polyhydroxy Acids (PHAs). They provide intense moisturization, help reduce the signs of aging (like fine lines and wrinkles), and offer antioxidant benefits. Vitamin E is also included for additional antioxidant protection.

Can this lotion help with eczema?

Yes, NeoStrata Bionic Lotion has been clinically shown to improve dryness, redness, and flaking associated with eczema on both the face and body due to its significant moisturizing and skin-soothing properties.

What is the consistency of the lotion?

The lotion is designed to be lightweight, providing high-strength moisturization without a heavy or greasy feel. It smooths easily into the skin.

Troubleshooting

Skin feels slightly tingly after application.

This can be a normal sensation due to the active ingredients (PHAs). If it persists or becomes uncomfortable, try applying it less frequently (e.g., once daily) or ensure your skin is fully dry before application. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

Lotion is not absorbing well.

Ensure you are applying a thin, even layer. Gently massage it into the skin until absorbed. Applying to slightly damp skin (from cleansing) can sometimes aid absorption.

Skin appears red or irritated.

This may indicate sensitivity to the active ingredients. Reduce frequency of use to once a day or every other day. Ensure you are not layering it with other strong exfoliating products. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.

Product seems less effective over time.

Ensure consistent, daily application as directed. Skin can adapt to ingredients, but consistent use of PHAs is key to their benefits. Always use sunscreen during the day, as sun exposure can counteract anti-aging and skin-improving effects.
