Frequently Asked Questions

Who should use Active8 Lotion?

Active8 lotion is beneficial for all ages, all skin types, and all skin tones.

Anyone who wants to simplify their skincare routine without having to give up ingredients should use Active8 lotion with its 8 active ingredients.

Is Active8 Lotion suitable for sensitive skin?

Active8 lotion is a non-sensitizing moisturizer that's considered safe for sensitive skin.

Active8 contains ceramides, CoQ10, glycerin, green tea, hyaluronic acid and shea butter which sooth and protect skin while contributing to a healthy skin barrier.

Because Active8 contains 5% niacinamide, we recommend once daily use for those with niacinamide sensitivity but most will be able to use Active8 lotion twice a day.

Everyone's skin is different and some people can be more sensitive than others. We recommend doing a patch test if in doubt.

Where does Active8 Lotion fit in my skincare routine?

Active8 combines the active ingredients of 5 separate serums and moisturizers and can replace multiple products to streamline your skincare routine.

In the morning we recommend using Active8 Lotion after your acid-based treatments like Angie's Actives All-In Vitamin C + Lactic Acid Serum, and then following with sunscreen.

In the evening we recommend using Active8 Lotion after your retinoid as your night moisturizer. If your skin is dry you can follow Active8 Lotion with a heavier cream.

Should I use Active8 Lotion once or twice a day?

Active8 lotion is a non-sensitizing, hydrating, lotion that can be safely used twice a day. It layers over and under serums and heavier creams beautifully.

Angie uses Active8 twice a day.

Are there ingredients or products I shouldn't use with Active8 Lotion?

Active8 lotion can be combined/layered with any other skincare without concern for ingredient interactions.

Active8 contains 2 peptides and you may have heard that peptides shouldn't be combined/layered with acids like vitamin c or AHAs but this is a myth. The theory is that acids can break the bonds that hold peptides together making them ineffective but the conditions needed to break the bonds (high heat and strong acid) just don't exist on our skin or in our skincare products.

Active8 lotion contains niacinamide and you may have heard that niacinamide shouldn't be combined with vitamin c but this is also a myth that has been debunked.

Why is Active8 Lotion Yellow?

Active8 lotion gets its rich golden color from star ingredient CoenzymeQ10 (CoQ10). CoQ10 is naturally dark orange and will color skincare products pale yellow to orange depending on how much is used in the product. We use 1% CoQ10 in Active8 lotion. If you've used a white CoQ10 product from another brand, there's probably only a trace amount of CoQ10 in the product.

Does Active8 Lotion have a scent/fragrance?

All Angie's Actives products are fragrance-free meaning we don't add masking fragrances or fragrant botanicals that can irritate skin. That said, each product may have a scent due to the natural scents of the raw ingredients. If there is a scent, it will usually dissipate quickly after application.

This silky lotion is everything I want and everything I expect from Angie! It is chock full of good things for skin - peptides, antioxidants, ceramides, moisturizers, hydrators - the list goes on... There are a few things that I look for in skin care and a few things that I can't abide. This lotion ticks all the right boxes in what is a great, really well formulated skin care product! Although packed with good things, it's still just the right consistency for my aging skin. Active8 (what a great name, by the way!) is the perfect amount of rich, and has nicely worked with every moisturizer and sunscreen under which I've tried it. I have had no pilling when using it with other products, and there is no unpleasant odor. I also want to mention that I appreciate the reasonable and fair price point of both of the powerhouse products! All in all, Active8 has really impressed me!

Love it!

I am so sad. I wanted to love these products. I feel they are made with quality ingredients and I trust Angie because she diligently researches all skin care products. I ordered the improved formula after customers were complaining about pilling. I am experiencing a lot of pilling even with the new formula. I will continue to use but only at night when not applying sunscreen or make up afterwards. Mostly likely won’t order again.

Tried the new formula. I’m experiencing significant pilling even when using the product alone. Active 8 doesn’t absorb into the skin. It also dries down sticky and tacky to the touch.

I’m a huge Angie fan but the product is realistically unusable even after reformulation. Will try experimenting mixing with other topicals to help it absorb efficiently.

I was lucky enough to be able to make the purchase during her first release however missed the window this second time around, but I love this lotion! I use it in the mornings following Angie’s vitamin C serum, which I allow to dry and set before applying. I follow that up with lotion and also a mineral sunscreen. On certain days I will throw on some make up. I have not experienced the pilling that others have and I have absolutely no issues with the color of the serum. I experienced some slight tingling initially, however, I have noticed that it has decreased with ongoing use. In the evenings, I use my retinols. I am very happy with the product and do plan to continue to purchase. You have a loyal customer in me !
