Frequently Asked Questions

How is Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream different from Ultra Facial Cream?

Our Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream is powered by Colloidal Oatmeal and is ideal for daily use when your skin is experiencing a skin emergency such as extreme sensitivity, dryness, reactivity or immediately following a procedure. The creamy, smooth texture is ideal for soothing irritated skin. For daily use, our beloved Ultra Facial Cream is ideal, as it helps to hydrate skin and repair the skin barrier. Its balancing, lightweight texture is ideal for everyday hydration.

Should I use Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream morning and night? Can I layer it with another moisturizer for extra hydration?

Should you use Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream if you experience skin sensitivity every day?

If you experience skin sensitivity (whether in the form of dryness, irritation, redness, etc.) on a daily basis, Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream is a great addition to your daily routine. This innovative formula gently melts and absorbs efficiently into the skin providing fast and comfortable relief daily while maintaining hydration in the skin.

How long should I use Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream after a skin meltdown?

Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream is an effective hydration formula to soothe inflamed, dry, rough and sensitized skin, all common signs of a skin meltdown. We recommend using our soothing formula for up to 4 weeks to maximize the benefits after you experience a meltdown or post-procedure. However, this innovative cream can continue to be used as your daily hydration 2x/day!

Does the Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream layer well under UV protection?

Traditionally, thicker occlusive salves or creams are recommended for post-procedure skin, why does the texture of Ultra Facial Medicated Recovery Cream make it ideal for skin going through extreme sensitivity or post-procedure?

The melting texture of Ultra Facial Meltdown Recovery Cream is ideal for reactive skin as the main ingredient, Colloidal Oatmeal, has been milled to 33 microns for better coverage and absorption into the skin – it creates a light, flexible protective film due to its microscopic colloidal structure. Combined with our soothing base it creates a gliding texture that can be layered under UV and makeup for ultimate hydration support.
