I always get excited when a new Skinceuticals product is released.

…not because I get invited to a launch evening in a posh London hotel and not because I get a new toy to play with…

but mostly because Skinceuticals products are tried, tested, researched, improved and finally formulated with clinical studies to prove they actually work, which means they are backed by science.  Which I find very reassuring.

Soooo!  What is this new product I hear you ask…  It’s an active cream which works by encouraging skin-cell turnover resulting in smooth, soft, glowing skin!Glycolic overnight cream The Skin Nurse Teddington

Benefits:

  • Clinically proven to improve skin radiance, texture and tone.
  • Proven tolerable for nightly use.
  • An ideal complement to chemical peels to pre-condition the skin and extend results.

Good for:

  • Dull skin
  • Uneven texture and tone
  • Sun-damaged skin
  • Clogged pores
  • Pre- skin peels and to extend results of skin rejuvenating treatments.

Whats special about this particular product is that Glycolic acid can generally be quite harsh on some skin types (often found in chemical skin peels) and when used incorrectly can cause irritation and redness.  However, this clever cream has been created with a ‘soothing complex’ of botanicals and oils to protect the skin and lock in hydration, without compromising the ability of the active ingredient, which is pretty impressive let me tell you!

I have personally tried this product twice now over the past week and can safely say that even with my rosy sensitive cheeks, I felt no discomfort or dryness and my skin feels smooth and super-soft!

If you’d like to try this over night cream, get in touch with me for application advice (its important to always consult a professional for individual use recommendations with such active products) and you can also order it online here.

Best Wishes
