Neostrata Acne Cleanser Review | Does Neostrata Really Work

Neostrata Acne Cleanser Review

NeoCeuticals is a company that makes a number of acne treatment products. One of the products is called “NeoStrata” and is designed to treat acne that plagues individuals of all ages. It is not a natural product and contains a number of chemicals ranging from AHA’s to Salicylic acid. This product is intended to treat all types of acne for all ages.

About NeoStrata

When using NeoCeuticals it is recommended that you thoroughly cleanse the skin prior to applying the topical treatments. After cleansing, apply a small amount to the area that needs to be treated. Generally after going to sleep the cream will go deep into the skin to treat the acne and kill off any bacteria.

Neostrata uses a number of chemical based ingredients including:

Salicylic Acid, Alcohol Denat., Propylene Glycol, Butylene Glycol, PEG-8, Polyacrylamide, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Retinyl (Vitamin A) Acetate / Arachis Hypogaea (Peanut) Oil, Acetyl Mandelic Acid, Citric Acid, Tartaric Acid, Laureth-7.

These ingredients are mainly comprised of filler to bond the ingredients and create “substance.” Retinyl is commonly used to treat acne and wrinkles. Salicylic acid is a cheap ingredient used in most products for acne treatment. All of the above ingredients may cause irritation, redness, dryness, and peeling.

Our Thoughts on Neostrata

Neostrata is made by a company that produces a number of other acne products. Neoceuticals claims that acne care is their specialty, but little is known about each product. Lack of information for the consumer can be truly annoying and frustrating when it comes to searching for an acne treatment. The irritating ingredients this product is known to have may also be quite bothersome for those that have sensitive skin. The products are moderately priced and range from $12 to $40 and up, depending on what you intend to purchase.

In addition, while using this acne treatment you will need to commit to using a sun block every day to prevent sunburn. This is just an added task that could be reduced if you were to use a more natural treatment.

The positives are that the website is professional and clean, and offers information regarding their other products. Checkout is secure and they do offer a money back guarantee. Though, they cannot refund the time you wasted using a product that doesn’t work for everyone and all skin types.

Final Verdict

While Neoceuticals has a solid website, the ingredients used in the Neostrata acne treatment are very low percentages (only 2% or less of Salicylic acid), which isn’t enough to see significant changes in the skin. The ingredients are also highly irritating to the skin and not everyone will be able to use the products
