Frequently asked questions

Skin care, skin serums

Which product is suitable for skin care 35+?

Neobotanics skin serums– choice according to skin type:

  • Dry to very dry skin, loss of brightness and elasticity, more pronounced wrinkles:
    Anti-Wrinkle Skin Rejuvenator #1 (water serum) as the first step, followed by Instant Beauty & Radiance #2 (oil serum) to promote comfort and a nourished appearance.
  • Combination and problematic skin prone to unevenness and enlarged pores:
    Skin Perfector #1 (water serum) and then Youth Booster #2 (oil serum).
    If you are unsure about your choice: start with our Discovery collection skin serum test set 4x4.5ml and try the serums one by one. It will be easier to find out what suits your skin and reduce the risk of care overload.

Dietary supplements:The appearance of the skin is also influenced by long-term "internal" care, we recommend:

  • collagen peptides – ideally in combination with vitamin C, because vitamin C contributes to
    normal collagen formation for normal skin function.
  • protection of cells from oxidative stress (e.g. vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc,
    Selenium contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.


A suitable choice is BEAUTY MARINE COLLAGEN + 22 ESSENCES with natural raspberry-cranberry
flavors (267 g / 30 servings) - food supplement based on marine collagen peptides NATICOL®.


Tip for practice: the best results usually come from a combination of consistent cosmetic care

How to properly use and apply Neobotanics skin serums?

A) TESTING PHASE– individual serum testing (without combinations):

  1. Skin cleansing (makeup removing oil/milk/foam)
  2. Skin toning (toner)
  3. SERUM – apply a few drops and let dry, 1-2 times a day, preferably morning and evening
  4. Cream/skin oil

In the testing phase, we recommend trying each serum separately for 2-3 days, not combining it with other serums.
Only combine multiple serums after you have verified that the individual serums are suitable for your skin.

B) REGULAR APPLICATION serum combination:

  1. Skin cleansing (makeup removing oil/milk/foam)
  2. Skin toning (toner)
  3. SERUM #1 - apply a few drops of water-based serum (#1) and let dry
  4. SERUM #2 - apply a few drops of oil serum (#2) and let dry
  5. Cream/skin oil

Drying time:aqueous serum (#1) approx.10 seconds, oil serum (#2) approx.30-60 seconds.
Quantity: just usea few drops, serums are very concentrated.
We recommend 1 drop on each cheek, another on the chin, nose and forehead, i.e. a total of approximately 0.035 drops.

How often to apply:1-2 times a day, preferablymorning and evening
With regular application, serums can be combined, namely any water-based (#1) and oil-based serum (#2), according to the current needs of the skin, see below for recommended serum combinations for different skin types.

Notice:
We do not recommend layering the same type of serum twice on top of each other. This could disrupt the synergistic effect of the active ingredients or cause skin irritation due to an unnecessarily high amount of active ingredients on top of each other. So do not apply two water-based serums (#1 and #1) or two oil-based serums (#2 and #2) on top of each other. That is why the bottles are marked #1 and #2.

Jak dlouho sérum na vrásky vydrží?

Pleťové sérum v balení 30 ml vydrží našim při denním používání cca 1-2 měsíce.
Záleží na tom, zda je používáno 1x nebo 2x denně. Při používání pouze 1x denně vydrží sérum až 2 měsíce, při aplikaci 2x denně cca 1 měsíc.

Séra jsou velmi koncentrovaná, stačí použít pouze několik kapek.
Doporučujeme 1 kapku na každou tvář, další na bradu, nos a čelo, tj. celkem cca 5 kapek.

What are the most suitable COMBINATIONS of Neobotanics SERUMS?

Dry skin, deep wrinkles, loss of brightness and elasticity:
ANTI-WRINKLE SKIN REJUVENATOR #1+INSTANT BEAUTY & RADIANCE #2 

Dry skin, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation:
ANTI-WRINKLE SKIN REJUVENATOR #1+YOUTH BOOSTER #2

Problematic skin, enlarged pores, acne, uneven skin tone:
SKIN PERFECTOR #1+INSTANT BEAUTY & RADIANCE #2 

Damaged skin, wrinkles, dehydration, hyperpigmentation:SKIN PERFECTOR #1+YOUTH BOOSTER #2

Are any of the Neobotanics skin serums suitable for rosacea?

Cosmetic products are not intended to treat rosacea or affect its cause. If you have skin that is prone to significant sensitivity and redness, we recommend choosing the most gentle routine possible, minimizing the number of steps, and introducing new products gradually.

In our experience, YOUTH BOOSTER #2 is often well tolerated by rosacea-prone skin because it is an oil serum focused on skin comfort. It is formulated with squalane and selected oils and contains active ingredients such as bakuchiol, Argirelin™ YOUth peptide and magnolia extract.
The oily texture usually allows for very gentle application without unnecessary friction, which is practical for reactive skin. At the same time, it is often advantageous for sensitive skin to keep the routine simple (fewer layers, less risk of overload).

Practical safe procedure for rosacea:

  • Patch (skin) test: apply a small amount to a small area and observe the reaction for 24–48 hours.
  • Start with a low frequency: e.g. 2–3 times a week, ideally in the evening, and increase as tolerated.
  • Apply only to calm skin: avoid use on acutely irritated, burning or broken skin.
  • Minimalist care: in a sensitive period, "less is more" (gentle cleansing, simple hydration, one serum).
  • If you have been diagnosed with rosacea: it is advisable to align your routine with the dermatologist's recommendations, especially if you are also using medical therapy.

Tip: If you want to start as gently as possible, apply 1-2 drops and only press in gently (without massaging), or use every other day.

Are Neobotanics skin serums natural?

Our serums are designed as highly effective cosmetic care that targetscombines
natural bioactive substances and advanced biotechnological active ingredients. The goal of this concept is maximum functionality and meaningful results in everyday care - therefore, for us, "natural" does not mean just simple oils, but above all bioactive substances with a clear role in the product.

Oil serums (#2): bioactive lipid extracts and non-polar plant substances

We base our oil serums on highly bioactive lipid extracts and non-polar (oil) plant bioactives. These include, for example, Stoechiol (a plant bioactive complex) and the Argirelin Youth peptide, which is specially formulated to be soluble in an oil base.
The basis of oil serums is squalane and rare natural oils, which ensure pleasant application, support skin comfort, and at the same time create a suitable environment for the stability and effectiveness of lipophilic active ingredients.

Water serums (#1):biotechnological peptides, liposomal systems and modern bioactive complexes

Water serums are based on advanced biotechnological, highly effective bioactive peptides and modern active complexes. We often use liposomal forms, which are designed to enable effective transport of active ingredients into the skin, their better distribution and interaction with skin structures. An example is the X50 Antiaging Capsules technology.
We also work with modern cosmetic assets such as plant stem cells (Resistem), postbiotics (BB-Biont) and growth factors (Reneseed) - the goal is to support sophisticated skin care across various needs (comfort, smoother and more unified appearance, overall quality of the skin surface).

Why do we use a combination of water and oil serums?

The combination of these substances in our serums is intentional: we combine natural bioactive ingredients with advanced cosmetic biotechnology to achieve high efficacy while maintaining comfort of use and high-quality sensory properties.

Tip:If you have sensitive skin, we always recommend a patch (skin) test and introducing a new product gradually (e.g. every other day) to properly assess tolerance.

Jsou pleťová séra Neobotanics vhodná pro microneedling (mikrojehličkování, mezoterapie, dermaroller, dermapen)

Pleťová séra Neobotanics byla vyvíjena tak, aby účinné látky penetrovaly do pokožky a fungovaly i bez mezoterapie.

Séra jsou primárně vyvinuta pro topickou (povrchovou) aplikaci na pokožku. Nejsou deklarována jako sterilní přípravky určené pro mezoterapii nebo aplikaci při microneedlingu, kde dochází k narušení kožní bariéry a k výrazně hlubšímu průniku látek do kůže.

Pravděpodobně by však microneedling možný být měl, ale doporučujeme nejdříve provést test na
malé části pokožky, zda k podráždění nedojde.

Z čistě teoretického hlediska by pro microneedling bylo vhodnější vodné sérum, protože olejová séra se při tomto typu ošetření běžně nepoužívají.

Je však potřeba vzít v úvahu, že některá z těchto sér obsahují vyšší koncentrace aktivních látek (např. niacinamid, peptidy či další bioaktivní složky). Při microneedlingu by tak mohlo dojít k intenzivnějšímu průniku těchto látek a potenciálnímu podráždění pokožky, protože mikrojehličkování dočasně výrazně zvyšuje propustnost kůže.  Z tohoto důvodu obecně doporučujeme používat naše séra po microneedlingu až ve fázi následné péče, kdy je pokožka již zklidněná, nikoli přímo během ošetření.

Pro mezoterapii / microneedling (dermaroller, dermapen) je z čistě teoretického hlediska nejvhodnější typ séra s těmito vlastnostmi:

  • vodná (ne olejová) báze
  • ne příliš vysoké koncentrace aktivních a dráždivých látek
  • obsah hydratační a regenerační složky

Nejvhodnější sérum z naší nabídky je vodné Anti-Wrinkle Skin Rejuvenator #1:

  • vodná báze
  • obsahuje hydratační a regenerační složky (např. kyselinu hyaluronovou, peptidy apod.)
  • zaměřeno na regeneraci pleti a tvorbu kolagenu

Složením je obecně bližší tomu, co se používá v profesionálních microneedling ampulích
(hydratační, reparativní).

Spíše méně vhodné sérum je vodné Skin Perfector #1:

  • obsahuje velmi vysokou koncentraci niacinamidu (20 %) a další bioaktivní látky
  • po narušení kožní bariéry microneedlingem by mohl způsobit výrazné podráždění.

Nevhodné pro microneedling:

  • Instant Beauty & Radiance #2
  • Youth Booster #2

Důvod: jsou to olejová séra. Olejová fáze se při microneedlingu obvykle nepoužívá, protože hůře proniká mikrokanálky a může zvyšovat riziko zánětu nebo komedonů.

Kolagen - typy I, II, III

Jaký typ kolagenu je Neobotanics kolagen?

Neobotanics živočišné kolageny:

Obsahují kolagenní peptidy z mořských ryb Naticol, což jsou mořské kolagenní peptidy typu typ I.
Ty jsou známé dobrou biologickou dostupností a jsou vhodné pro celkovou podporu pojivových tkání – tedy kůže, šlach, vazů i kloubů.

Neobotanics rostlinný kolagen:

Vegan collagen alternative + 20 ESSENCES je rostlinná alternativu k živočišnému kolagenu. Obsahuje 1000 mg VOLLAGEN®– komplex aminokyselin v poměru odpovídajícímu živočišnému kolagenu, avšak ve 100% veganském provedení. Rostlinné aminokyseliny jsou speciálně navrženy v poměru podobném, v jakém se nacházejí v kolagenu.

Který z typů kolagenů I, II, III je vhodnější na pleť a který na klouby?

Většina lidí neví o faktu, jež zastává mnoho lékařů a to, že kolagen typu II na klouby není nutně lepší než hydrolyzovaný kolagen typu I.

Typy kolagenu v těle:

  • Kolagen typu I je nejhojnější v kůži. Přípravky s hydrolyzovaným kolagenem typu I (například z rybích kůží nebo hovězí kůže) jsou proto spojovány zejména se zlepšením pružnosti, hydratace a vzhledu pleti, vlasů i nehtů.
  • Kolagen typu II je součástí kloubních chrupavek. Proto je často uváděno, že i kolagenní peptidy připravené z kolagenu typu II jsou ideální pro podporu pohybového aparátu – např. v doplňcích stravy pro sportovce či osoby trpící kloubními obtížemi.
  • Kolagen typu III může hrát doplňkovou roli v rámci podpory zdraví tkání a cév, ale nejčastěji ho vidíme v kombinaci s typem I.

Přestože se kolagen typu I nejvíce spojuje s pokožkou, stále častěji se ale objevují důkazy, že hydrolyzované peptidy získané z kolagenu typu I jsou prospěšné pro kloubní aparát.

Proč je kolagen typu I vhodný na klouby zrovna tak jako kolagen typu II?

Při užívání kolagenu v doplňcích stravy se kolagen v trávicím traktu rozkládá na jednotlivé aminokyseliny a peptidy, které si organismus následně využívá podle svých potřeb – tedy pro tvorbu kolagenu v různých tkáních (klouby, kůže, šlachy, vazy apod.). Proto se v praxi často používá hydrolyzovaný kolagen typu I, který je velmi dobře vstřebatelný a může podporovat regeneraci pojivových tkání v celém těle.

Hydrolyzovaný kolagen typu I (např. mořský kolagen) se po vstřebání využívá jako stavební materiál pro různé tkáně v těle, včetně kloubů.

Kolageny v nabídce Neobotanics jsou mořské kolagenní peptidy (typ I), které jsou známé dobrou biologickou dostupností a jsou vhodné pro celkovou podporu pojivových tkání – tedy kůže, šlach, vazů i kloubů.

Skin care with EDEMA

How to care for skin with EDEMA?

The best results usually come from comprehensive long-term care.

1) INTERNAL CARE– based on dietary supplements rich in flavonoids and antioxidants and on collagen peptides.

  • FLAVO-LYMPH(food supplement), an ethanol-free herbal tincture (glycerite) with extracts from 14 traditional Czech herbs rich in flavonoids. The product is based on botanical ingredients that are traditionally associated with the "lymphatic" routine and excretion (e.g., flatweed - normal activity of the lymphatic system; nettle/needle/meadowflower/yarrow/burdock - excretion; dandelion flower - detoxification; nightshade - liver and biliary tract; broadleaf/blueberry - vascular system). The tincture is suitable as a long-term supplement to overall care, especially if you want to include herbal extracts rich in flavonoids in your regimen.
  • PREMIUM MARINE COLLAGEN- a dietary supplement based on patented marine collagen peptides NATICOL® and other substances used in "beauty" products (e.g. liposomal vitamin C, zinc, B vitamins, etc. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for normal skin function.
  • LIPOSOMAL VITAMIN C PLUS(dietary supplement), a combination of vitamin C, zinc and selenium in a liposomal form of vitamin C (NeoLipo™ C):
  • Vitamin C, zinc and selenium contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
  • Zinc and selenium contribute to the normal function of the immune system; vitamin C also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

With dietary supplements, it usually makes the most sense to evaluate changes over a period of weeks and at the same time monitor whether the same micronutrients (e.g. vitamin C, zinc, selenium) are not multiplied in multiple products - always follow the label and recommended usage.

2) EXTERNAL CARE -is key to the cosmetic effect on the appearance of the skin - especially thanks to regular massage with gels rich in flavonoids in liposomal form. You can use the gels/sera separately or combine them as needed (alternate or layer them with a gap).

  • CBD ANTI-EDEMA GEL - eA gel emulsion designed for refreshing skin massage, with a quickly absorbed texture. Contains CBD in standardized nanomicellar form and the LEGACTIF™ complex (plant extracts from goldenrod, lemon and broadleaf, among others), as well as a blend of essential oils for an immediate feeling of freshness/comfort.
    Recommendations in the routine: especially in the morning - for greater comfort during the day; for more intensive care, it can also be added in the evening.
  • CBD ANTI-EDEMA SERUM – ROLL ON -"SOS" topical care in roll-on form for quick, contact-free application at any time of the day when you want to treat your skin to cooling and soothing comfort (practical when traveling).
  • FLAVODERM CREAM - rregenerating cream with flavonoids and CBD, especially suitable for dry, flaky or itchy skin, typically also for irritation associated with wearing compression garments. If you are also using other gels from the NEOBOTANICS range in the morning/evening, we recommend applying the gel first, then Flavoderm cream after absorption. It is also ideal to apply the cream after removing compression stockings, when the skin is most stressed.

Application and combination:
Ideally apply gels/serums in the morning, or both morning and evening for a more intensive regimen. If you combine two products, it is often practical to apply CBD ANTI-EDEMA GEL in the morning (comfort during the day) and choose the other product according to preference in the evening; or use the roll-on at any time during the day as needed.

Is CBD ANTI-EDEMA GEL also suitable for swelling after leg surgery?

CBD ANTI-EDEMA GELis a cosmetic product intended for skin care and massage of skin prone to swelling and for a feeling of comfort for tired legs.

We recommend using the gel after surgery, but only if the skin at the application site is fully healed and the application is in accordance with the post-surgery regimen determined by the doctor (especially if you have compression, a specific rehabilitation procedure, etc.).

Safety recommendations after surgery:

  • Do not apply to injured, open or otherwise disturbed skin (e.g. fresh scars, wounds, scabs, areas with stitches).
  • Avoid application in the immediate vicinity of the surgical wound until the skin is fully healed and free of sensitive areas.
  • Start slowly: in the first few days after inclusion, apply a small amount to a smaller area and monitor tolerance.
  • If in doubt, follow the advice of your treating physician (especially in case of complicated healing, infection, hematomas, use of anticoagulants, etc.).

Using the gel in practice:

  • Apply tosurrounding healed areasand massage gently.
  • It is practically proven in the morning (comfort during the day) and, if necessary, in the evening.
  • If you are using compression aids at the same time, apply the gel so that it is fully absorbed before putting on the compression.
How long is it recommended to use FLAVO-LYMF?

We recommend using the liquid dietary supplement FLAVO-LYMF as a course of treatment for at least 2 months. The standard recommended dosage is 20 drops 3 times a day (i.e. a total of 60 drops/day). You can take the drops undiluted on a teaspoon or add them to water, juice or cold tea.

After completing the course of treatment, it is advisable to reduce the dosage or discontinue it for a certain period of time and then resume the course according to current needs.

Recommended combinations for comprehensive care:

  • For skin prone to swelling, we recommend combining FLAVO-LYMF drops with cosmetic care: CBD ANTI-EDEMA GEL. Use the gel morning and evening: apply a small amount in a thin layer to selected areas and massage gently.
  • For skin prone to cellulite, we recommend combining FLAVO-LYMF drops with cosmetic care: CBD ANTI-CELLULITE & SLIMMING BODY SERUM - for the best effect, regularity and evaluation of changes in the appearance of the skin over a period of weeks are key.
Can the CBD Anti-edema gel for swelling also be used on the face?

We do not recommend using the gel on your face. This gel is intended for the body and its composition may be unnecessarily irritating to the more sensitive skin of the face (and especially the eye area). For your face, choose products that are formulated and tested for facial skin.

Hubnutí - kontrola tělesné hmotnosti

Které produkty jsou vhodné pro hubnutí a zároveň zmírnění celulitidy?

Nejlepší výsledky obvykle přináší komplexní dlouhodobá péče.

1) VNITŘNÍ PÉČE – postavená na doplňcích stravy bohatých na flavonoidy a antioxidanty:
- Flavo-Lymf bylinná tinktura bez etanolu (glycerit) s extrakty ze 14 tradičních českých bylin bohatých na flavonoidy. Produkt je postavený na botanických složkách, u nichž se tradičně uvádí souvislost s „lymfatickou“ rutinou a vylučováním (např. ploštičník – normální činnost lymfatického systému; kopřiva/jehlice/tužebník/řebříček/lopuch – vylučování; pampeliška květ – detoxikace; svízel – játra a žlučové cesty; listnatec/borůvka – cévní soustava). Tinktura se hodí se jako dlouhodobý doplněk k celkové péči, zejména pokud chcete do režimu zařadit bylinné extrakty bohaté na flavonoidy.
- Neobotanics Slim Beauty Day Essence denní doplněk stravy 60 kapslí
- Neobotanics Slim Beauty Night Essence noční doplněk stravy 60 kapslí

2) VNĚJŠÍ PÉČE - je klíčová pro kosmetický efekt na vzhled pokožky – zejména díky pravidelné masáži s gely bohatými na flavonoidy. Gely/séra můžete používat samostatně nebo je podle potřeby kombinovat (střídat, případně vrstvit s odstupem).
- Neobotanics CBD Anti-Cellulite & Slimming Body Serum tělové sérum pro péči o pokožku se sklonem k celulitidě 100 ml

Jak podpořit hubnutí a současně zlepšit trávení?

Je důležité zmínit, že žádný bezpečný doplněk stravy „nelikviduje tuky“ sám o sobě bez úpravy jídelníčku a režimu. Při kontrole tělesné hmotnosti by cílem měla být podpora metabolismu, trávení a odvodnění – šetrně a dlouhodobě.

Doporučená kombinace:
Neobotanics Slim Beauty Day Essence denní doplněk stravy 60 kapslí pomáhá tělu pracovat efektivněji během dne, tato denní formule je zaměřená na:
- podporu metabolismu tuků
- kontrolu chuti k jídlu
- energii během dne
- podporu spalování při pohybu

Neobotanics Slim Beauty Night Essence noční doplněk stravy 60 kapslí může přispět k lepšímu rannímu vyprazdňování a snížení pocitu zavodnění, noční formule je zaměřená na:
- podporu detoxikačních procesů
- odvodnění organismu
- podporu trávení a pravidelnosti
- harmonizaci metabolismu v noci

Pravidelnost stolice je nejvíce ovlivněna dostatečným pitným režimem (min. 2–2,5 l denně), příjmem vlákniny a pohybem.
Noční formule může podpořit přirozené procesy v těle, ale neměla by působit jako agresivní projímadlo – to by nebylo dlouhodobě vhodné.
Pokud někdo hledá „hodně silný“ efekt (např. výrazné projímání či silné odvodnění), je potřeba opatrnosti. Příliš agresivní zásah může vést k podráždění střev, ztrátě minerálů a zpomalení metabolismu.

Proto doporučujeme postupovat postupně a bezpečně.

Podpořit trávení a detoxikovat umí skvěle i Pure chlorella bio. Tato sladkovodní mikrořasa podporuje čistící funkci jater, přispívá ke správné funkci imunitního systému a podporuje trávení a metabolismus.

Kapsle Slim beauty essence a řasu Chlorelu je možné i vzájemně kombinovat.

Body skin care – cellulite, leg comfort

How to care for skin with CELLULITE?

The best results usually come from comprehensive long-term care.

1) Internal care– based on dietary supplements rich in flavonoids and antioxidants:

  • FLAVO-LYMF – herbal tincture with extracts of 14 plants rich in flavonoids (dietary supplement)
  • Anti Cellulite Beauty Essence – a dietary supplement based on plant extracts and vitamins

We recommend always using dietary supplements according to the recommendations on the label.

2) External care – regularapplication and massage:

  • CBD ANTI-CELLULITE & SLIMMING BODY SERUM – apply to problem areas and massage in, ideally in the morning, or both morning and evening for a more intensive beauty routine.

Combining gels/serums is possible – you can alternate or layer them with a gap according to your preference and skin tolerance.
If you also combine CBD ANTI-EDEMA GEL, it is advisable to include it especially in the morning for greater comfort during the day (e.g. a feeling of freshness and lightness during normal functioning).

Tip: Evaluate cosmetic changes in the appearance of your skin in terms of weeks, not days – regularity and long-term use are key for cellulite.

Is FLAVO-LYMF suitable for cellulite in addition to swelling?

FLAVO-LYMF is a dietary supplement based on 14 herbs, some of which support the lymphatic system, others detoxification or excretion. If you want to support a comprehensive routine focused on the appearance of the skin (e.g. with a tendency to "orange peel skin"), it makes sense to combine internal support with regular cosmetic care and massage.

Recommended synergy: FLAVO-LYMPH + ANTI-CELLULITE GEL

  • Internal care: FLAVO-LYMF – herbal tincture with extracts of 14 plants rich in flavonoids (dietary supplement)
  • External care: regular massage is key to the cosmetic effect of cellulite. We recommend supporting it by using ANTI-CELLULITE & SLIMMING BODY SERUM - ideally 1-2 times a day (e.g. after a shower) on problem areas.

FLAVO-LYMF contains extracts from 14 traditional herbs rich in flavonoids, including:

  • Bug eater– normal functioning of the lymphatic system
  • Nettle, needles, meadowsweet, yarrow, burdock – excretion / urinary tract (supports the excretion of water from the body)
  • Dandelion (flower)– detoxification
  • Svizel– normal functioning of the liver and biliary tract
  • Blueberry, blueberry – normal functioning of the vascular system (blueberry also an antioxidant)

Skin care for varicose veins

How to care for skin with varicose veins?

The best results are usually achieved with comprehensive long-term care. The aim is to promote comfort for tired legs, a feeling of freshness and regular skin care (especially if it is stressed, dry or burdened by compression).

1) Internal care (supplement to the regimen)– includes dietary supplements focused on plant extracts and flavonoids:

  • FLAVO-LYMPH– herbal tincture with extracts from 14 plants rich in flavonoids.
  • NOVARIX– capsules based on plant extracts, bioflavonoids and vitamins.

2) External care- regular massage and layering of products as needed throughout the day.

  • CBD ANTI-VARIX LEG GEL -A refreshing gel-cream specially designed for massaging heavy and tired legs. Use it ideally in the morning, or both morning and evening for a more intensive routine. Apply an appropriate amount and massage gently (without aggressive pressure), when wearing compression, apply so that the gel is fully absorbed before putting on stockings.
  • CBD ANTI-EDEMA SERUM – ROLL ON -local care in roll-on form for contact-free application at any time of the day, suitable for travel or work. The product is designed to provide a cooling, refreshing and soothing sensation to the skin, and is also suitable for the care of skin with small varicose veins. Practical tips: we recommend having it on hand in your handbag, car or at work, if you keep it in the refrigerator, the cold can subjectively intensify the feeling of freshness (especially pleasant in the heat).
  • FLAVODERM CREAM -regenerating cream with bioactive (liposomal) flavonoids and CBD, especially suitable for dry, flaky and itchy skin, often mentioned as irritated by compression stockings or bandages. When and how to use:
  • ideally after removing compression stockings, when the skin is often most stressed,
  • If you are using other gels in the morning and evening, we recommend the following order: gel first → Flavoderm cream after absorption.
  • We recommend using gels/roll-ons best in the morning, or both morning and evening.

It is possible to combine the two products: a common and practical option is ANTI-VARIX LEG GEL in the morning (comfort during the day) and ROLL-ON whenever needed; in the evening, add Flavoderm skin care cream (especially during compression).

Is the CBD anti-varicose gel also suitable for protruding varicose veins that hurt? Does it eliminate their enlargement?

CBD anti-varix gel is a cosmetic product intended for leg massage and skin care with varicose veins. It is not a medicine or medical device and is not intended for the treatment of varicose veins.

If the veins are painful, the condition worsens, or warning signs appear, we recommend consulting a doctor.

Dietary supplements – immunity, bones, muscles and connective tissues

What are the most effective dietary supplements for boosting immunity?

The "base" for supporting immunity is the combination of vitamin D + vitamin C + zinc + selenium. These micronutrients contribute to the normal function of the immune system" (vitamin D, vitamin C, zinc, selenium) and at the same time contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress (vitamin C, zinc, selenium).

Recommended products from our offer

  1. Vitamin D3 + K2 with sea buckthorn oil
    Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
  2. Liposomal Vitamin C Plus + Zn + Se + bioflavonoids

How should I take Neolipo D3 + K2 correctly?

The package states 500% of the RDI for vitamin D3 and 60% of K2. Are there any side effects with long-term use?

The recommended dosage is 5 drops once a day, which corresponds to 1000 IU (25 µg) of vitamin D3 and 45 µg of vitamin K2. The package contains approximately 800 drops (approx. 150 doses).
The 500% RDI for vitamin D3 is 500% of the Reference Intake (RI) which is a guideline daily reference value for the general population – it is not a “toxic threshold”. If you want to take a lower dose, you can reduce the dosage to 2-3 drops per day.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding and children

Can Neobotanics dietary supplements be used by pregnant and lactating women as well as children?

We recommend always following the information on the label of a specific product. If it is stated that the product is not intended for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women, this recommendation should be respected.

In general, it is advisable to consult a doctor before taking dietary supplements during pregnancy and breastfeeding, especially if you are taking medication or are dealing with health problems.

Are there any restrictions on the use of liposomal vitamin C in a child over 12 years of age?

Always follow the recommendations on the label of a specific product. If the product is not intended for children, choose a variant intended for the given age group or consult a pediatrician.

The approximate reference dose of vitamin C for ages 12+ is usually around 80–100 mg per day (labels often state a reference value of 80 mg, for adolescents the recommendations are around 90–100 mg/day depending on age and gender). In practice, it is therefore reasonable to aim for a total daily intake (from food + supplement) of around this range, unless otherwise directed by a doctor.

Vegan

Are Neobotanics products suitable for vegans?

Most NEOBOTANICS dietary supplements are suitable for vegans, but we always recommend checking the specific product by looking at the ingredients on the label, as some products may contain ingredients of animal origin.

Typically, the following products/variants are not vegan:

  • Vitamin Din some variants (often the source islanolin).
  • Some products with vitamin C, if they are also enriched with vitamin D - you always need to check the composition.
  • Polar Plankton Omega-3 (krill/plankton) – this is omega-3 from a marine source (not vegan).
  • Premium Marine Collagen – contains fish collagen peptides (not vegan).

In our vegan cellulose capsules, the capsule shell is of plant origin and the capsules usually contain only a mixture of active ingredients without unnecessary fillers; however, even here, the specific product label is always decisive.
