I purchased this because it seemed to be a new approach to DNA repair skin care but with the addition of growth factors which also seems to have a lot of potential. I have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised as it seems to be a very good product. It has very different ingredients to many other products on the market which also sets it apart from the bulk of skincare items.
For those who liked Remergent DNA Repair, this may be an acceptable replacement. The only downside is that the directions say to apply to the areas needing treatment rather than all over and that is possibly why it only comes in an 18ml container. I have been applying it all over my face morning and night, including around my eyes. After two weeks of use, I can see a definite improvement in my elevens and noticeable firming. At this stage, I am not sure how long the container will last so it may be a bit on the expensive side but at the moment, it is still on special at EDS so might be worth purchasing before the special ends if you are interested in trying it. I am hoping that they will produce the product in a larger container in the future.
The texture is a clear gel that absorbs rapidly with a totally dry finish to the skin so it would make an excellent makeup base. I don't use anything over it at night but in the am, I follow with sunscreen. Normally when I applied my sunscreen, there was a slight feel of it still on my face but applying it over the Benev, it also absorbs instantly and leaves a dry finish so I am very impressed.
Ingredients:
Water (Aqua), Human Fibroblast Conditioned Media, Glycerin, Citrulius Lanatus (Watermelon) Fruit Extract, Gossypium Hirsutim (Cotton) Extract, Polysorbate 20, Arabidopsis Thaliana Extract, Lecithin, Xantham Gum, Lactic Acid, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil, Phenoxyethanol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol |

| Are you not using the Neocutis stuff any more? Does this product work better than the Neocutis for you? |

I was using Neocutis until I saw this product appear at EDS and thought I might like to try it out as I think there is a lot going for HGF products. I had just finished the Neocutis Bio-Serum Intensive Treatment which I thought was an excellent product and showed that the Neocutis ingredients were on the right track as the intensive treatment seemed to have a significant effect on improving the skin. I wish that the Neocutis Hydrogel had the same percentage of PSP as the intensive serum.
I still have half a tube of Hydrogel left and will use it up when I have finished the Benev and then make a decision on what I will do in the future. |
