On clean, wet skin, massage in a circular motion for thirty seconds. You can leave it on for up to two minutes, however with my sensitive skin I immediately rinsed it off with warm water.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spoiler alert! The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/neostrata-glycolic-microdermabrasion-polish_158603.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Glycolic Microdermabrasion Polish<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is my favourite product in this entire skincare routine. If I could only repurchase one product this would be it! I love that this polish contains 10% glycolic acid (AHA), which is known as a holy-grail exfoliating ingredient. The glycolic acid helps remove dead skin cells, revealing the bright layers underneath. It\u2019s also great at fading discolouration, treating acne,\u00a0 and helping combat the signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This polish is very gentle on my sensitive skin, and to my surprise, not drying at all! After one use, my skin felt incredibly smooth, soft, and refreshed. I found that when I use this during a breakout, it helps clear up any blemishes within a couple days (thank you, glycolic acid!).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b><a href=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hydra-filling.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-53954 size-thumbnail alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hydra-filling-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hydra-filling-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hydra-filling-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hydra-filling.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>Step 2:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/neostrata-hydra-filling-cream_158604.html\"><b>NEOSTRATA Hydra Filling Cream<\/b><\/a><\/h4>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Directions:<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> I used this 1 &#8211; 2 times a day, after using the Microdermabrasion Polish, or my <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/cetaphil-gentle-skin-cleanser_6356.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">everyday cleanser<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Apply to face and neck.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was excited to see that the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/neostrata-hydra-filling-cream_158604.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neostrata Hydra Filling Cream<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> contains pure hyaluronic acid, which is naturally produced by the body so allergic reactions are rare. This cream has been formulated to attract moisture to dry and dehydrated skin, which has a plumping effect; in essence it helps to reduce the look of fine lines &amp; wrinkles!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This cream has a rich, creamy texture, which is non-greasy and absorbs into my skin really quickly. I find that a little goes a long way, so the jar lasts quite a while. The cream does have a light scent, which I usually don\u2019t like, so I found myself using this more as a night time cream. My skin feels instantly smoother after each use, and doesn\u2019t give that \u201cburning\u201d sensation when applying to any dry patches. When I do use it during the day, I love how smoothly my makeup applies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b><a href=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/infusion-patches.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-53955 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/infusion-patches-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/infusion-patches-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/infusion-patches-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/infusion-patches.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>Step 3:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/neostrata-hyaluronic-acid-micro-infusion-patches_168394.html\"><b>Hyaluronic Acid Micro Infusion Patches<\/b><\/a><\/h4>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Directions:<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Before bed, remove the patches from the tray and carefully remove the white protective film. Gently press the rough side of the patch onto clean, dry skin over the desired expression line; crow\u2019s feet, forehead creases, and laugh lines. Repeat with second patch. After a great night&#8217;s sleep, gently remove patches and discard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This Neostrata product was really fun to try! Launched in April, these first-to-market Micro-Infusion Patches are a non-invasive micro-filler containing 100% pure hyaluronic acid. They\u2019re so easy to apply and don\u2019t irritate my skin. I did have a slight tingling sensation, but nothing uncomfortable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While I didn\u2019t see any immediate results, I\u2019m hoping they will slow down the aging process. One bonus use I found for these was to use them on really stubborn, dry spots; just apply to dry spot, and leave on overnight. In the morning, I could see that it significantly reduced my dry spots! I\u2019ll definitely be keeping a couple packs of these in my skincare stash &#8211; especially for the upcoming winter.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b><a href=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Acid-Peel.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-53952 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Acid-Peel-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Acid-Peel-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Acid-Peel-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/well.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Acid-Peel.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>Bonus step: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/neostrata-dual-acid-antiaging-peel_158601.html\"><b>NEOSTRATA Dual Acid Anti Aging Peel<\/b><\/a><\/h4>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Directions:<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> I used this once a week, however you can use it 1-3 times\/week.

Follow up with a moisturizer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As someone with sensitive skin, I\u2019m pretty reluctant to try any kind of face mask or peel. I tend to have reactions to the majority of masks I try; burning, redness, itching. However, in my quest to find anti-aging products, I knew I had to give this one a shot and wow, I was pleasantly surprised!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First I tested it on the least sensitive areas of my face; for me, my chin and forehead. Over the next few weeks, I slowly built up to applying it to my entire face (avoiding the eye and lip areas, of course!). This mask is so gentle that I would often forget that I had it on, it didn\u2019t irritate my skin at all! Usually, I find masks leave my skin feeling tight and dry, however I found that this one left my skin feeling moisturized and soft.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have you tried Neostrata before?
