How many times have you put your skin care on your face and then forgotten about your neck? Even I’m guilty of it from time to time, and it’s ingrained in my mind. However, there’s a reason why dermatologists say “don’t neglect your neck!” A good neck cream can help minimize a variety of concerns, from horizontal lines to sagging. And if you’re thinking, why can’t I just use my regular face moisturizer on my neck? You can, but the skin on the neck is typically thinner and drier, making it more prone to signs of aging. For me personally (and for Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards), a firming neck cream is paramount. This month, NEOSTRATA debuted its newly reformulated Triple Firming Neck Cream, and the award-winning product is better than ever. Here’s everything to know.
The Benefits of This Neck Cream
When it comes to firming neck creams, this oil-free, fragrance-free formula tops the charts. It’s ideal for those with lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and/or discoloration on their neck and décolleté. The cream was given the name “Triple Firming” because of its three key ingredients. NeoGlucosamine (a a building block of hyaluronic acid) helps firm the skin and even its tone. The combination of NeoCitriate and pro-amino acids targets the skin’s volumizing matrix. This means it helps stimulate collagen synthesis to increase skin firmness.
However, always seeking to innovate, NEOSTRATA chose to reformulate its award-winning formula to add a new ingredient. According to the brand, the cutting-edge MicroDiPeptide229 “is a unique lifting and firming peptide that is 2.5 times smaller than other leading cosmetic peptides for skin that looks younger longer.” In a clinical study over 16 weeks, 90 percent of participants agreed their neck and décolleté were smoother. Additionally, 88 percent of people agreed the cream improved the look of décolleté elasticity, and 83 percent agreed their neck looked firmer.
Key Ingredients
MicroDiPeptide229, NeoGlucosamine, NeoCitriate, pro-amino acids and shea butter
How to Use It
Use one pump of the cream on your neck and décolleté morning and night. One pump should be enough for both areas, but of course you can add a little more if necessary. The texture is rich and luxurious, but doesn’t leave my skin greasy. Kyle Richards is a fan, too. “The texture of this is unbelievable,” the reality star said. “It’s smoothing and feels plumping…and it works. This is a really great product. You will love it!”
