General facts about helo® skincare products
How to Apply helo® PSO?
Helo PSO is only for external use. Avoid sensitive areas such as your eyes, lips, inside your nose, and the vaginal area, unless your doctor directs you otherwise.
Apply a small amount of helo® PSO cream onto your fingertips. Apply the cream to the affected area in small dots and spreading it evenly and gently massaging it in a circular motion until fully absorbed. Use enough cream to cover the entire affected area, but avoid applying excessive pressure, especially if your skin is sensitive.
The cream is easy to apply and absorbs quickly.
Let the cream fully absorb, so your skin is dry before getting dressed or coming into contact with textiles.
Apply 1-2 times daily as needed for 4-12 weeks. Maximum effect after 12 weeks.
Use helo® PSO once a day between flair ups.
IS helo® PSO safe to use?
All ingredients are safe to use. However, one can develop sensitivity to any substance.
To minimize the risk of allergies, we do not use ingredients that are on the EU's list of declarable perfume substances, all of which are documented to be allergenic.
We recommend, when trying a new product, to always test the product on a small area of the skin to identify any negative reactions, such as allergies or hypersensitivity to some of the ingredients.
helo® PSO is for external use only. Avoid sensitive areas such as near your eyes, lips, inside your nose, and the vaginal area, unless your doctor directs you otherwise.
Do not use when hypersensitive or allergic to any of the ingredients.
helo® PSO is not recommended for children under 3 years of age, pregnant and breastfeeding women.
What active ingredients are in helo® PSO?
helo® PSO contains 3 active ingredients: Boswellia, Vitamin B12 , and Urea.
helo® PSO also contains shea butter, almond oil, coconut oil and olive oil, which nourishes, strengthens, and softens the skin.
What are the benefits of Boswellia?
Boswellia known as frankincense, is resinous extract from Boswellia Serrata trees. Boswellic acid has been used for years against various irritations. Boswellia is thought to have huge benefits to the skin, thanks to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Boswellia helps calming and soothing dry, irritated, scaly sensitive skin. Its antioxidant properties help neutralize free radicals contributing to healthier and softer skin and improve the appearance of the skin.
What are the benefits of vitamin B12?
Vitamin B12 is essential for the healthy reproduction of skin cells. Vitamin B12 helps to protect and promote the natural repair of the skin barrier.
Vitamin B12 anti-inflammatory properties bring relief to dry, itchy and irritated skin caused by skin dryness.
What are the benefits of Urea?
Urea is an important component of your skin’s natural moisturizing factor (NMF). Urea binds moist and contributes to the skin’s natural barrier function. A healthy skin barrier is crucial for preventing moisture loss and protecting the skin from environmental irritants.
At higher concentrations, such as the concentration in helo® PSO, Urea is a keratolytic agent, meaning it also help to gentle exfoliate the hard top layer of dead skin cells and reduce dead skin cells buildup on the skin’s surface.
The intensely moisturizing properties of Urea, soothes and softens tough skin, prone to dryness. By strengthening the skin barrier, Urea restores elasticity and help improve the appearance of dry, rough, flaky or scaly skin.
CAN I USE OTHER CREAMS AS A SUPPLEMENT?
Yes, feel free to use a rich cream as a supplement, especially during good periods to keep the skin soft and supple.
CAN HELO® PSO BE USED FOR CHILDREN, PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING WOMEN?
