SkinCeuticals is expanding its P-TIOX lineup with a new moisturizer to help smooth wrinkles and support post-injection skin. The new SkinCeuticals P-TIOX Cream ($150) follows the launch of the brand’s best-selling SkinCeuticals P-TIOX Serum ($150), a watery formula designed to help soften the look of expression lines over time with neurotoxin-inspired results.
The new P-TIOX Cream is designed to complement in-office neurotoxin injections by helping extend visible wrinkle-reducing results and refine the look of pores after treatment. It can also be used on its own to help soften wrinkles, smooth texture and improve tone evenness.
The formula is powered by 10 percent Myrixin, a patented botanical molecule the brand says delivers neurotoxin-inspired benefits, alongside peptides that target expression lines and visible aging. It also contains Zinc PCA to help balance oil, plus niacinamide and LHA for additional pore-refining and skin-smoothing benefits. Beyond targeting wrinkles and texture, the cream also hydrates and boosts radiance.
As “Brotox” (the trend of men getting neurotoxin and filler injections) continues to rise in popularity, the cream is made for all genders. While it can be used on its own for smoother texture and more refined-looking skin, it was also tested alongside neurotoxins such as Botox Cosmetic, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau and Daxxify.
According to clinical testing, after just one use, the cream boosts hydration by 94 percent within one hour, provides 24-hour hydration, strengthens the skin barrier by 32 percent and reduces sebum accumulation by 50 percent after eight hours. After four weeks, skin appears visibly smoother and brighter. After 12 weeks, wrinkles are visibly reduced by 33 percent, while elasticity, radiance, smoothness and tone evenness improve and pore visibility decreases by 30 percent.
For even faster results, the brand says pairing the cream with the SkinCeuticals P-TIOX Serum can help deliver glass-like skin in as little as one week. Pairing the SkinCeuticals P-TIOX Cream with in-office neurotoxin injections can also visibly reduce wrinkles in non-injected areas, and the formula is safe for all skin tones and skin types. SkinCeuticals P-TIOX Cream is available at SkinCeuticals.com, Dermstore.com and physicians’ offices nationwide starting May 5.
