Frequently Asked Questions
How does ARTISTRY® essentials Alpha Hydroxy Serum Plus fit into my skin care routine?
Cleanse, tone, then apply essentials AHS Plus before moisturizing. For additional information on incorporating other treatment products, see the Skin Care Routine Chart.
Are alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) really good for my skin?
Absolutely! Daily exfoliating can provide immediate benefits that improve your skin's surface texture.
Can I use essentials Alpha Hydroxy Serum Plus with other ARTISTRY essentials moisturizers?
Yes. ARTISTRY essentials Alpha Hydroxy Serum Plus has been clinically shown to enhance the effectiveness of other ARTISTRY essentials moisturizers. Recommended for all skin types, Alpha Hydroxy Serum Plus moisturizes and exfoliates.
How long should I use an alpha hydroxy acid product? If I stop, will the benefits disappear?
Skin care is like health care – it’s a lifetime program. While the most dramatic changes from using an AHA product occur within four to 12 weeks, continued use results in additional improvements. But once you stop using it, the benefits will begin to diminish.
