Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion
With Caroline Robinson, MD
In each issue, Practical Dermatology© magazine asks top dermatologists about the latest products they are recommending to patients. Here, Caroline Robinson, MD, dermatologist and founder of Tone Dermatology in Chicago, IL, discusses Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion, which is part of the Vaseline Radiant X product range that she helped to create.
What is the Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion?
Caroline Robinson, MD: The Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion happens to be a personal favorite of mine. Unlike most body care products on the market, the Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion includes premium active ingredients like 1% niacinamide and is clinically proven to visibly reduce dark spots and even skin tone in just two weeks when used regularly.
What are the key actives?
Dr. Robinson: The Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion contains 1% niacinamide, a form of Vitamin B3 that helps hydrate skin while also evening skin tone in just two weeks. Niacinamide can be an extremely effective skincare ingredient that can help improve skin texture, moisture, and even prevent wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. We often see it in many face care products but not as much when it comes to body care which makes the product itself so unique. In addition to the inclusion of 1% niacinamide, the Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion includes Unilever’s lipids technology which works in harmony with skin to help replenish its own ceramides and foster a healthier skin barrier. This technology creates a building block to help nourish the skin while also allowing the active ingredients such as niacinamide to penetrate deeper and also providing up to 72 hours of moisture.
How are you recommending Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion in practice?
Dr. Robinson: External and environmental factors play an important role when it comes to skin hydration. With the changing seasons and the onset of colder weather, our skin often experiences increased dryness. Studies also suggest that skin of color tend to have lower ceramide content in the skin which can further increase the risk of dryness – making it essential to moisturize during the colder months. For everyday use, I recommend using the Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion within two minutes of showering to minimize water loss and lock in hydration. Thanks to active ingredients such as niacinamide, it helps deliver optimal hydration in a non-greasy and quick absorbing formula and helps even skin tone in just two weeks when used regularly.
What void does Vaseline Radiant X Even Tone Nourishing Body Lotion fill for your patients and in the skincare aisle at drug stores?
Dr. Robinson: As a Black woman and dermatologist, it’s one of my priorities to provide my patients with resources and products that address skin concerns that impact skin of color. Achieving radiant skin should be accessible to everyone, without limitations. Often many body skincare product lines treat all skin the same or will claim “quick fixes” to achieve radiant skin, most of which overlook people of color skin needs and put skin health on the back burner. But radiant skin isn’t a quick fix. Radiant skin is a science.
