Product Information

Full details

The NeoStrata Glycolic Mousse Cleanser is designed for experienced Glycolic Acid users seeking effective exfoliation and pore clarification. Its key benefit is revealing radiant, clean skin by aiding renewal and prepping the skin for other treatments. A key caveat is its potential to increase sun sensitivity due to its AHA content, requiring diligent sun protection. This soap-free, foaming cleanser utilizes a 12% Glycolic Acid (AHA) and Lactobionic Acid (PHA) blend with an amphoteric delivery system to minimize irritation while effectively cleansing and exfoliating.

FAQs

Who is this cleanser recommended for?

This cleanser is recommended for individuals who have experience using Glycolic Acid (AHAs) and are looking for a high-strength exfoliating cleanser to aid skin renewal and pore clarification.

How often should I use the Glycolic Mousse Cleanser?

For optimum results, it is recommended to use the cleanser twice daily, in the morning and evening.

What is the significance of the amphoteric delivery system?

The amphoteric delivery system allows the skin to absorb the beneficial resurfacing properties of Glycolic Acid and Lactobionic Acid while minimizing the potential for irritation, making the potent formula gentler on the skin.

Do I need to wear sunscreen when using this product?

Yes, absolutely. This product contains an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) that increases sun sensitivity and the possibility of sunburn. You must use a sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterward.

Can this cleanser remove makeup?

Yes, this cleanser effectively removes makeup, leaving your skin soft and perfectly clean.

What are the main active ingredients?

The main active ingredients are a 12% AHA/PHA blend, consisting of Glycolic Acid (AHA) and Lactobionic Acid (PHA).

Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?

While it contains an amphoteric complex to minimize irritation, it is a high-strength AHA cleanser and is best suited for those already experienced with AHAs. Beginners or those with very sensitive skin should use caution and may wish to consult a dermatologist.

Troubleshooting

Skin experiences mild stinging or redness after use.

This can be a normal reaction to AHAs, especially initially. Ensure you are not over-massaging or using on compromised skin. Reduce frequency to once daily or every other day. Always rinse thoroughly. If irritation persists, discontinue use.

Cleanser does not lather well.

This is a soap-free formula and is designed to create a light foam rather than a rich lather. Ensure you are applying to wet skin to activate the mousse.

Skin feels dry after cleansing.

While soap-free, the exfoliating action can sometimes lead to dryness. Ensure you are applying a hydrating moisturizer immediately after rinsing and patting your skin dry. Consider reducing frequency if dryness is persistent.

Product seems less effective over time.

Skin can become accustomed to ingredients. Ensure you are using it consistently as directed. If you have been using it for a very long time without noticeable effects, consider consulting with a skincare professional.
