Body and Neck Care

- Uneven Skin Texture Body Concerns
An uneven skin texture is a common result of a build-up of dead skin cells on the surface of skin which can often result in dullness and a rough or bumpy feel. The key to improving skin texture is using skincare products with exfoliating properties to optimise cellular renewal to retexture rough body areas for intensely smooth and radiant results. To improve skin texture on the body, it is recommended to introduce the Skinceuticals Retexturing Activator Exfoliating Serum as part of your daily body care regime. This exfoliating body serum is formulated with the compound hydroxyethyl urea and amino sulfonic acid for effective desquamation and retexture of skin, in addition to niacinamide for its anti-inflammatory benefits and hyaluronic acid for an extra boost of intense hydration to enhance skin's suppleness. - Crepiness & Age Spots Body Concerns
Crepiness and age spots are a common result of skin ageing and can be identified by the thinning of skin, in addition to the formation of wrinkles and dark areas of Skin Discolouration. Exfoliation encourages cellular renewal and works to prevent excess melanin build-up on the surface of the skin reducing hyperpigmentation, so it is recommended to look for body care products with exfoliating properties. The Skinceuticals Tripeptide-R Retinol Neck Repair Cream is an anti-ageing retinol lotion for the neck that is effective in delivering dual brightening and rejuvenative action with its blend of retinol to target age spots, and tripeptide concentrate to densify skin with structural proteins to minimise skin crepiness.
- Sagging Skin Body Concerns
Sagging skin is often a result of weight loss, where a deterioration of collagen and elastin in the dermis layer of skin negatively impacts its strength and flexibility. Gravity-fighting body areas such as stomachs, bottoms, thighs, knees and upper arms are often most prone to sagging skin, and therefore require the most attention when applying body care products. For targeted results in sagging skin, a body skin tightening cream such as the Skinceuticals body Tightening & Firming Concentrate is recommended for daily use. This skin tightening cream is formulated for the body with 2.5% tripeptide (a peptide consisting of three amino acids) to stimulate a natural moisturising factor to fill skin with volume, improve firmness and support skin's structure.

- Hyaluronic Acid
Hydration is a key aspect of any effective body skincare routine, making humectants such as Hyaluronic Acid a commonly found ingredient in body care. Hyaluronic acid is able to bind up to 1,000 times its weight in water, retaining moisture at the surface of the skin for intensely hydrated results. The powerful ingredient slows the rate in which water evaporates from the skin, often enhancing the longevity of moisture retained at the skin's surface.
- Tri-peptide
Peptides-in-skincare consists of three amino acids that help to stimulate the body's natural moisturising factor to fill skin with volume and help support the skin's structure, often in areas of deterioration from sun exposure or ageing. This makes tri-peptide a key addition to any anti-ageing body care routine, with particular concentration to areas of skin sagging or crepiness as peptides make up the fibres in collagen and elastin, making skin appear more firm and taut.
- Retinol
Retinol reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and crepiness by increasing the production of collagen in the skin. This key feature makes a Retinol Creams a key part of an effective anti ageing skin care routine, with particular focus on common areas of concern such as the neck, arms and thighs. Retinol is also known for its brightening properties, reinvigorating dull skin with exfoliation.
- Urea
Urea is a natural component of skin tissue that's function is to bind moisture to the outer surface of skin to maintain overall health and work to manage the effects of ageing, dryness and inflammation. Implementing hydroxyethyl urea into your body skincare routine will work to achieve plumper, visibly healthier-looking results with a strengthened skin barrier function.

The skin concern you wish to target will heavily impact the body areas that require the most attention when it comes to body care. To alleviate dryness - hands, feet, knees, elbows and shins are the main areas to concentrate skincare on, to support sagging skin - abdomen, buttocks, thighs, knees and upper arms are the gravity-fighting zones to focus skin tightening creams on, and to reduce the appearance of crepiness - neck, chest and hands will require the most attention from your anti-ageing body lotion. For optimal results, it is generally recommended to apply these products twice daily to the main areas of concern (Note: this is product specific, refer to product guidelines for exact terms of use).
