Sponge Microneedle Cream 50mL

Description

Sponge Microneedle Cream is a 50mL moisturizer with hydrolyzed sponge spicules, peptides and hexapeptides in it. The spicules give a light microneedling effect from a cream, so the peptides and hydrators get in more easily. It’s in stock now for $50.00.

What’s in Sponge Microneedle Cream 50mL

Hydrolyzed sponge is made from freshwater sponge spicules, microscopic needle-shaped silica pieces. Rubbed in, they make tiny channels in the outer layer of skin so the rest of the formula gets in more easily. Expect a light tingle or prickle for a few minutes. That’s the spicules, and it fades.

The added signal peptides are short amino acid chains that resemble pieces of collagen and other skin proteins. They’re used in creams for firmness and smoother texture.

Hyaluronic acid holds a lot of water for its weight. The multi-molecular version mixes chain lengths: the long chains sit on the surface and slow water loss, and the shorter ones get into the upper layers of the skin.

Betaine is a humectant from sugar beet that pulls water into the skin and calms it down at the same time.

Carnosine is a dipeptide (beta-alanine and histidine) studied as an antioxidant. It’s paired here with palmitoyl peptides, which resemble collagen fragments.

How to use microneedle cream

Apply to clean skin and massage gently until it’s absorbed, morning and night. Start with once a day for the first week while your skin gets used to the spicules, then go up to twice.

Before the first full use, try a small amount on the inside of your wrist and leave it for a day. Skip the product if it gets red or itchy.

Who microneedle cream is for

It suits tired, early-aging skin and dry skin that feels rough. The supplier also lists sensitive dry skin, but go slowly: start every other day if your skin reacts easily.

Avoid using it right after exfoliating acids or a retinoid on the same evening at first. The spicules make the skin take in more of whatever’s on it, and that includes the strong stuff.

Don’t apply it to broken or sunburned skin, and wash your hands after use so you don’t rub spicules into your eyes.

Where microneedle cream fits in your routine

A cream is the last step before sunscreen in the morning and the last step at night. It seals in whatever serums went on before it. If you use a retinoid or an exfoliating acid, put it on first, let it dry for a few minutes, then use the cream on top to cut down on dryness.

Microneedle cream results and timing

Skin feels softer and more hydrated within the first week. Firmness and fine lines take longer, usually eight to twelve weeks of daily use, since collagen builds slowly. Use it every day; skipping days slows it down.

Getting the most from microneedle cream

A few things that hold people back:

• Using too much. A pea-sized amount for the face is enough, and more just sits on the surface.
• Putting it on before serums. Thin layers go first and the cream goes on top.
• Giving up after two weeks. Firmness changes take two to three months.
