How To Use

Application: Dispense one to two pumps into clean hands. Apply to wet skin, massaging gently in circular motions to cover the entire face and neck, avoiding the immediate eye area. The product will foam upon contact with water.

Frequency: Use twice daily, morning and evening, for optimal anti-ageing results and skin preparation.

Timing: Use as the first step in your skincare regimen, before applying toners, serums, treatments and moisturisers.

Layering: Follow with NeoStrata Skin Active Intensive Eye Therapy around the eye area. In the morning, complete with Matrix Support SPF 30 on face and neck. In the evening, finish with Cellular Restoration for comprehensive overnight renewal.

Expert Tips: For maximum cleansing benefits, massage the foam for 30-60 seconds to allow the Polyhydroxy Acids to gently exfoliate. During initial use, skin may experience light, transient exfoliation - this indicates the product is working to stimulate cell renewal. If discomfort persists, reduce frequency of use. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry with a soft towel.

FAQ

Q: Can I use NeoStrata Skin Active Repair Exfoliating Wash if I have sensitive skin?
A: Yes, this cleanser is suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin. The Polyhydroxy Acids used in the formulation are gentler than traditional Alpha Hydroxy Acids due to their larger molecular structure, making them well-tolerated even by sensitive skin. The soothing botanical complex further enhances skin comfort. However, we recommend performing a patch test before first use and starting with once-daily application, gradually increasing to twice daily as your skin acclimates.

Q: How does this cleanser differ from NeoStrata's Foaming Glycolic Wash?
A: Whilst the Foaming Glycolic Wash contains high-strength Glycolic Acid (18%) for more intensive exfoliation, the Skin Active Repair Exfoliating Wash uses Polyhydroxy Acids (PHAs) which provide gentler exfoliation suitable for daily use on all skin types, including sensitive and mature skin. PHAs also offer superior hydrating and antioxidant benefits, making this cleanser ideal for those seeking anti-ageing benefits with enhanced comfort.

Q: Will I see immediate results or does this require consistent use?
A: You'll notice immediate benefits including smoother, softer skin texture and a refreshed, clarified complexion after the first use. However, the comprehensive anti-ageing benefits develop with consistent use over time. Clinical studies show that after 16 weeks of use as part of the complete Skin Active regimen, participants experienced significant improvements in skin smoothness (98%), firmness (95%) and evenness of tone (90%).

Q: Can I use this cleanser alongside retinol or other active treatments?
A: Yes, this cleanser is specifically designed to prepare the skin for optimal absorption of treatment products including retinol, vitamin C serums and peptide treatments. The gentle exfoliation enhances penetration of active ingredients without over-sensitising the skin. However, if you're new to active ingredients, introduce products gradually and speak to our skincare experts for personalised advice on building your complete regimen.

Q: How long will one bottle last with twice-daily use?
A: With the efficient pump dispenser and foaming action, one to two pumps per use is typically sufficient for thorough facial cleansing. Based on this usage, a 125ml bottle typically lasts approximately 2-3 months with twice-daily application, offering excellent value for a professional-grade cleanser.

Q: Is this product suitable for acne-prone or oily skin?
A: Absolutely. The Polyhydroxy Acids help to unclog pores and remove excess oil and debris, making this cleanser beneficial for congestion-prone and oily skin types. The soap-free, pH-balanced formula thoroughly cleanses without stripping the skin or triggering increased oil production. For optimal results with acne-prone skin, speak to our experts about combining this cleanser with appropriate treatment products from the NeoStrata range.
