FAQS
Is Neostrata Resurface Glycolic Renewal Smoothing Lotion good for bumpy skin on the upper arms? +

Rough, bumpy-feeling texture on the upper arms, thighs and backs of the arms is exactly the kind of body skin a glycolic lotion is used for. Neostrata formulates it for face, hands and body, and the glycolic and citric acids help lift dead surface cells so skin feels smoother. Use it twice daily and give it four weeks.

Can I use the Smoothing Lotion on my face? +

Yes. Neostrata describes it as a rejuvenating lotion for face, body and hands, and it is oil free, fragrance free and non-comedogenic. Avoid the eye area and follow with sunscreen in the morning.

What is the difference between the Smoothing Lotion and Lotion Plus? +

The Smoothing Lotion is a 10% blend of glycolic and citric acids with mango seed butter and vitamin E - Neostrata's starter AHA for face and body. Lotion Plus is 15% glycolic acid for experienced AHA users. Begin here and move up once your skin is comfortable.

How often should I use Neostrata Resurface Glycolic Renewal Smoothing Lotion? +

Neostrata directs it after cleansing, and its four-week study was based on twice-daily use. If you are new to glycolic acid, start once a day for the first week or two and build to twice daily as tolerated.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin? +

Neostrata positions it for normal and oily skin types and as a starter AHA; it is fragrance free, oil free and dermatologist and allergy tested. Very reactive or sensitised skin should patch test first and start on alternate days.

Does it feel greasy? +

No. It is oil free and lightweight, designed to be smoothed in and absorbed quickly, which is why it works well over large areas such as arms and legs before dressing.

What results did Neostrata's study show? +

After four weeks of twice-daily use, 93% said skin was brighter and more luminous, 86% said skin felt moisturised, 82% said a ruddy appearance was diminished and 82% reported better clarity and radiance.

Can I use it on my hands? +

Yes - hands are one of the three areas Neostrata names for it. Apply after washing, and because hands are in the sun all day, keep an SPF handy to reapply.

Can I use Neostrata Resurface Glycolic Renewal Smoothing Lotion during pregnancy or while breastfeeding? +

Neostrata states there are no known safety concerns with using cosmetic products during pregnancy, but recommends that pregnant and breastfeeding women seek their doctor's advice. A 10% glycolic lotion is generally considered suitable during this time, but check with your midwife or GP before using it.
