Neostrata Resurface Problem Dry Skin Cream
Neostrata Resurface Problem Dry Skin Cream is Neostrata's heavy-duty body cream for the roughest skin you own: a 20% AHA/PHA blend in an ultra-rich, highly emollient salve that significantly improves the look and feel of rough, calloused, flaky skin on heels, knees and elbows. For the body only, it is the exfoliating cream for thick, hardened patches that ordinary moisturisers slide straight over.
Five hydroxy acids do the resurfacing: glycolic, lactic and mandelic acids from the AHA family alongside gluconolactone and maltobionic acid, two gentler polyhydroxy acids, totalling 20%. Glycolic acid, a natural component of sugar cane, normalises the skin's exfoliation process to help slough off dry skin and even tone. Beeswax, skin-conditioning oils and vitamin E are included to help reduce skin roughness on contact, with vitamin E also providing nourishing antioxidant protection from drying environmental aggressors. In Neostrata's three-week study of nightly use of Neostrata Resurface Problem Dry Skin Cream on heels, 97% said skin looked moisturised and had smoother texture, 91% said skin looked and felt renewed and 88% said skin looked younger.

Why This Beats a Standard Foot and Body Cream
- 20% AHA/PHA blend - Neostrata Resurface Problem Dry Skin Cream exfoliates thick skin that moisturiser alone cannot soften
- Five acids, including two gentle PHAs, rather than a single harsh one
- Beeswax and conditioning oils reduce roughness on contact while the acids work
- Spreads easily and is described by Neostrata as non-greasy despite its richness
- Three-week consumer results on the hardest test area of all: heels
Best For
- Rough, cracked-looking heels and hardened soles
- Calloused, thickened skin on knees and elbows
- Flaky, scaly-looking patches on the body
- Very dry body skin that has not responded to ordinary creams
Choose Neostrata Resurface Problem Dry Skin Cream for stubborn body areas only; for the face, and for everyday body smoothing, Lotion Plus or Glycolic Renewal Smoothing Lotion are the right strengths.
Becci, a registered aesthetics nurse with more than two decades in specialist skincare and medical aesthetics, is asked about hard heels and rough elbows far more often than people expect, and she gives the same honest answer every time: a moisturiser cannot shift that thickness. Neostrata Resurface Problem Dry Skin Cream is the one she recommends because a 20% acid blend in a rich salve does the job, and the three-week heel results back it up.
