Is this suitable for facial use or just body?

Hydra Balm is safe for both facial and body use. Its gentle, non-comedogenic formula makes it suitable for the delicate facial area while being rich enough for severely dry body areas.

How long does one jar typically last?

With regular use, one 48g jar typically lasts 2-3 months. The concentrated formula means you only need a small amount per application, making it very economical despite the rich texture.

Can I use this if I have acne-prone skin?

While formulated to be non-comedogenic, this rich balm is best suited for very dry areas rather than oily, acne-prone zones. Consider using it only on dry patches or as a spot treatment for compromised areas.

Is this different from regular moisturizer?

Yes, Hydra Balm is much more concentrated and occlusive than regular moisturizers. It's designed for therapeutic use on severely dry or compromised skin, providing intensive repair rather than daily maintenance hydration.

About Hydra Balm

SkinCeuticals Hydra Balm is an intensive moisturizing treatment specifically formulated for severely dry, compromised, or post-procedure skin. This rich, emollient balm contains a high concentration of glycerin and botanical extracts to deliver immediate and long-lasting hydration while supporting the skin's natural barrier function. The occlusive formula helps lock in moisture and creates a protective layer that prevents transepidermal water loss, making it ideal for patients recovering from professional treatments or dealing with chronic dryness. The concentrated formula features vitamin B5 (panthenol) to soothe irritation and promote healing, while allantoin helps calm inflammation and supports cellular regeneration. This therapeutic balm is particularly effective for areas prone to extreme dryness such as the lips, cuticles, elbows, and any areas of compromised skin integrity. Clinical testing shows significant improvement in skin hydration levels within 24 hours of application.

How to Use

Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin as needed throughout the day. For facial use, apply after serums and before sunscreen in the morning, or as the final step in your evening routine. Can be used on lips, cuticles, and other areas of extreme dryness. For post-procedure care, apply 2-3 times daily or as directed by your RELUXE provider. A small amount goes a long way due to the concentrated formula.

Pro Tip from Our Clinicians

This balm is exceptional for post-treatment recovery after Morpheus8, CO2 laser, or chemical peels. Apply immediately after your RELUXE procedure and continue use until skin has fully healed. For everyday use, mix a small amount with your regular moisturizer to boost hydration without heaviness.
