Merz Aesthetics® Reintroduces NEOCUTIS® Journée Revitalizing Day Cream SPF 30

  • Dermatologist-tested daily moisturizer with SPF 30 combines anti-aging growth factors, antioxidants, hydration, and sun protection in one step.
  • The original formula returns with the same proven performance and credibility.
  • Strengthens NEOCUTIS® product portfolio by offering an all-in-one multi-benefit day cream with SPF.

RALEIGH, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NEOCUTIS®, the science-based skincare line from Merz Aesthetics, announced today it is bringing back its iconic Journée Revitalizing Day Cream SPF 30. Relaunched by popular demand with its original formula and powered by the brand’s signature growth factor technology and scientific heritage, Journée offers a multi-benefit, dermatologist-tested day cream designed to simplify and elevate daily skincare. This all-in-one formula delivers four key benefits: skin revitalization, antioxidant care, broad-spectrum sun protection, and lasting hydration.

A Modern Skincare Essential, Rooted in Proven Science

Originally celebrated for its multifunctional performance, Journée returns to the NEOCUTIS® portfolio, following the discontinuation of the Journée Firm line, in response to consumer feedback and a renewed commitment to the brand’s scientific heritage.

The Journée formula helps support collagen production, improves skin resilience, and visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making it ideal for both everyday use and post-procedure care. By combining anti-aging treatment, hydration, antioxidant defense, and daily SPF protection into one step, Journée meets the growing consumer demand for streamlined, clinically-backed skincare solutions without compromising performance.

“Journée has always represented the intersection of science and simplicity for NEOCUTIS®,” said Patrick Urban, President of Merz Aesthetics North America. “As we listened to our providers and consumers, it became clear there was a strong desire to bring back this multifunctional product designed to support skin through every stage. Its return reflects our commitment to deliver results-driven skincare that fits seamlessly into daily life.”

Key Ingredients That Power Performance

The NEOCUTIS® Journée day cream delivers four skincare benefits in one product:

  • Daily defense with broad-spectrum SPF protection against UVA/UVB rays with a blend of Octinoxate and micro-fine Zinc Oxide
  • Anti-aging qualities from growth factors helping to support the building of collagen and hyaluronic acid production
  • Antioxidant protection against environmental stressors with blend of polyphenol-rich Green Tea Extract, stabilized Vitamin C and E, and Melanin
  • Lasting hydration and moisture retention with Sodium Hyaluronate (SH) and Glycerin

Journée features a fast-absorbing, non-greasy, non-comedogenic formula that blends seamlessly into skin without a white cast, making it suitable for daily use across all skin types. It is also dermatologist tested, fragrance-free, not tested on animals and free of color additives.

“The reintroduction of Journée reflects the strength and durability of the original formulation,” said Dr. Samantha Kerr, Chief Scientific Officer at Merz Aesthetics. “Our team engineered this product to integrate growth factors derived from wound healing research with proven antioxidants and SPF in a way that maintains efficacy without compromising skin feel or usability. It’s a highly efficient composition designed to support skin structure, hydration, and protection, simultaneously.”

NEOCUTIS® Journée Revitalizing Day Cream SPF 30 retails for $88.00 (15 mL; 0.5 fl oz.) and is available through authorized healthcare professionals and on store.neocutis.com.
