Product Summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "Neogen - Probiotics Youth Relief Cream" works well for improving skin hydration This moisturizer uses a good combo of humectants and emollients. These both types of ingredients are essentials for improving the skin hydration and keeping the skin barrier healthy. Acetyl hexapeptide-8, hexapeptide-9, alanine, arginine and aspartic acid in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (ceramide 3, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, phytosphingosine and tripeptide-1) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Ingredient callouts

  • As a plus, this moisturizer also contains Ceramides (phytosphingosine 0.30% - 0.55% and ceramide 3 0.30% - 0.50%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
  • This moisturizer also contains Peptides (hexapeptide-9 0.25% - 0.45%, hexapeptide-11 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.25% - 0.45%, tripeptide-1 0.25% - 0.50%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.30% - 0.50%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.30% - 0.50%, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.25% - 0.45%, nonapeptide-1 0.25% - 0.45% and copper tripeptide-1 0.25% - 0.45%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that they are helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
  • Adenosine 0.25% - 0.50%. It is a chemical present inside our skin cells. A clinical trial confirmed that topical application of Adenosine in a low concentration can reduce dynamic wrinkles (these are the wrinkles that appear with age in a places where our mimic is the most active, for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead).
  • Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - madecassoside 0.25% - 0.45% The Centella Asiatica Actives, even in low concentration, can help reduce inflammation in skin, strengthen the skin barrier and reduce photodamage. They can also help to decrease scarring.
This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: allantoin, salicylic acid, stearic acid, vitamin e, sodium ascorbyl phosphate, lecithin, lactic acid, caprylic/capric triglyceride, bifida ferment lysate, jojoba oil, allantoin and butyrospermum parkii butter
