Alpha Hydrox

Hello Neoteric Cosmetics Inc.  I am turning 36 this year. I am a doctor and when I was in medical school around 1993 I learned of the benefits of alpha hydroxy acid. I have been a faithful and daily user since then. I love your formulations…Thanks for your help in keeping me young!! Emma

My experience with your products goes back to 2002. After the (birth of my) baby, my face had pimples and redness... I tried 6-7 different types of cleansers, wipes, creams, etc… One day I was driving with my mother and I started crying about it, I was so sick of it, it looked horrible! She took me to the store and got the Foaming Face wash and the Enhanced Cream and told me to use it morning and night... She said use this and nothing but this and I did.  In 2 weeks the redness was gone, my face looked clear I had no pimples and I have NEVER used anything since (and I never will.)

Hi there, I've been using Alpha Hydrox since 1994 when I got a facial and the esthetician recommended I use Glycolic-AHA.  She told me there was a new product in drugstores that was affordable and just as good as the products she was selling.  I was a recent college grad with no money and since then I've been using your products religiously.  I'm 36 years old now, but look at my picture and tell me if you think I look my age...  Thank You! Linnea D.

I just wanted you and your company to know that I think your Alpha Hydrox products are great. I have been using your products, primarily the "Alpha Hydrox Anti-wrinkle Enhanced Creme" religiously since the age of 27 as a preventive measure to fight the appearance of aging wrinkles. I am now 42 and people think I am in my mid 30's, the use of this product has helped reduce the appearance of age lines and has help me feel confidence in my appearance. So I guess that long term use of this product is very beneficial if you wish to maintain a youthful look. Thanks again for creating such wonderful products that works. Todd A.

I am feeling the effects of the cold weather already so while visiting my local pharmacy I picked up the Alpha Hydrox products. To tell you the truth I bought them as they were on sale.  It has been a few weeks and WOW what a difference… I spent 4 times the amount of your products looking for something to do what Alpha Hydrox accomplished – Smooth, clear skin.
Thanks Alpha Hydrox...

I have been a loyal Alpha Hydrox user since 1999. The Alpha Hydrox Facial Cleansers are the only washes that I will allow to touch my face.  When I noticed it was becoming harder to find...I bought every single bottle of the Face Wash and Oil Free Treatment from two Rite Aid stores.  After I used all of that up, I frantically headed to the internet and was delighted to find that I could purchase the original products that I still love... I cannot live without my original Oil Free Treatment with 10% Glycolic AHA... I have extremely oily skin and these products help me to control oil, renew/replenish my skin and eliminate acne... You can't imagine the compliments I get on the clarity of my skin - with and without makeup. Tiffani F.

Hello.  My name is Susan… I am a horticulturist and landscape designer and have spent the bulk of my time outdoors. My friend gave me your products in 1992.   He told me that he believed these were skin care products I would like.  I have never been a cosmetic maven by any means.  However, I started using Alpha Hydrox the night he gave me the products.  Within two weeks, people were asking me what I was doing or had I been on vacation because my skin looked so alive, rested, and rejuvenated. Since I could no longer find your products in my area, I have been using other products for the past four or so years. I have not been a happy camper.  I saw a commercial today on a cable channel that said Alpha Hydrox was being re-launched… I am thrilled!!! I will be "haunting" stores in my area looking for the product line.

No one believes me when I tell them I am 45 years old! Most people think I am at least 10 years younger... I have been using your products for over 8 years and cannot believe how good my skin looks. I have barely any wrinkles...and I truly believe that this is due to your products. Kathy B. - Nashville, TN

I have been using Alpha Hydrox Enhanced Creme for as long as I can remember. I always tell people about it when they compliment me on my skin. I have spent as much as $150.00 on Chanel serum. I thought if an inexpensive product such as yours could do such a good job, surely an expensive product would do twice as good a job. Not so. I went back to your product and am using it to this day. My only regret is that it is difficult to find. I now found you on line and have ordered more products directly from your company. I can't wait to try them.
An extremely satisfied customer.

I have been using your products since the 1990's.  My skin used to be covered with pimples...but after using your product, I could see rapid results. I am 45 years old now and back then I was more concerned about pimples than wrinkles, but now my concerns are the wrinkles. In all of the beauty magazines that I read, dermatologist always say that the best products for wrinkles are the ones that contain Glycolic Acid. Your product has proven those dermatologist right, because at my age people cannot believe that I am 45 years old with three kids in college. I will never use anything else because I am living proof that your products work! Keep up the good work and I love your new line. Brittany E.

My name is Susan and I am 47 years old.  I have been using Alpha Hydrox AHA Souffle for over 6 years.  Your product not only tones and softens my skin, but really and truly does reduce those fine lines and wrinkles.  It doesn't make my face feel like I am wearing a heavy moisturizer or leave me with that oily look later on in the day like some other moisturizers, and at a fraction of the price.  Your product is an exceptional value.  I receive comments on my skin almost weekly.  It must really be working for me because when I tell people my age they don't believe me.  Thank you Alpha Hydrox for a product that lives up to what it says it does and for all of the compliments I receive because I use your product faithfully.

I started using Alpha Hydrox in the early 80's. I don't even know why I started but I don't like after shave and my face always felt dry and tight so I tried the product and have been using it ever since. Nothing else seems to do the same thing and believe me I have tried others... A couple of years ago it was no longer distributed in Canada and since I lived close to the border in Vancouver B.C. I would travel across to Washington state every few months for my supply of the product. Thankfully it is once again available in Canada. Being a man I sometimes have to explain why I need face cream but the results are evident and I have had many compliments about my skin's look.

I have used your product for years. I have been told that my skin is very youthful and that it seems to "glow".   I am a very pleased consumer and just had to let you know that I plan to keep using Alpha Hydrox as long as you keep making it.

I have been using your products for the last 9 years.  No one I know, even close friends who have known me for decades, can guess my age. Certainly, I take care of myself, but I've depended on Alpha Hydrox to keep my skin clear and youthful. I started using your products…when I noticed some signs of aging - dark areas at the corners of my eyes and the start of small wrinkles. The dark spots disappeared within weeks and the wrinkling was abated. Now, at 49, I believe my skin looks as good as friends of mine who are in their mid to late thirties. Recently, a new girl friend of mine who is 46 wondered to herself if I were younger than she! She was surprised when I revealed my true age. I'm very proud of how old I am and how great I apparently look. Thank you for your products. I'd be lost without my Alpha Hydrox cream!

I have had thick, ragged cuticles most of my life and recently decided to try rubbing the AHA Soufflé on my nails and into my cuticles to see if it helped. It not only worked; it was like a miracle cream! Overnight, my cuticles became soft and more pliable so I could push them back easily. So in addition to using it Alpha Hydrox AHA Soufflé on my face, I use it nightly on my nails as well. It works better than any cuticle cream I've ever tried and I've tried numerous ones over the years!

I have used Alpha Hydrox Enhanced Crème since it first came on the market... A few months ago, the stores I had been purchasing the product stopped carrying it. Someone told me that you had stopped production. I was devastated. My backup supply was going to be it. Recently a caught the tail-end of a commercial on TV about your new product line. I don’t know why I didn’t check your website before. It told me where in my area I could find your products and I am going (shopping) today. I hope you never stop producing the originals. I am an African-American woman and my skin looks great. No wrinkles, crows feet, etc. Lots of people have asked why don’t I have wrinkles. I attribute a lot to your product.

I have looked high and low for your skin care products in stores with little success. I got spoiled a couple of years ago when I stumbled onto your line. I haven't been happy with anything since. I'm 36 with blemish-prone skin. Your products are the only ones that are able to keep it in check without drying my skin out. I found an old tube of the oil-free facial treatment earlier this week so I was able to get the company info and go online to order. Whew! What a relief! I was suffering a major facial breakout. After a couple of days using what little was left in the tube, my skin is getting back under control. The older I get, the more I appreciate how effective your products are. I'm looking forward to trying more of them… Now that I have your website to go to, I will be a lifetime user!

It seemed, for a long time that your product had disappeared from the stores. As a result, I tried other products, which were “ok”, but none were as good as yours. It became even more evident to me how good your line was once I rediscovered you and stopped using the Neutrogena and Ponds products (both with AHA's). Alpha Hydrox was FAR more effective and even better than I remembered. It must be your new formulations. I didn't think it could get better than it was but you did it somehow. I was perfectly happy with the old formula but I love the Soufflé and have recommended it to others who insist on using whatever I am using. Guys who previously never thought about it started taking notice of what their skin looked like compared to mine. I bumped into an old buddy last week... We hadn't seen each other in at least 10 years… When he looked at me, he paused, stared and said, "My God, you haven't changed at all, and I mean AT ALL!..." I used your products when they first came out…they worked for me right from the start. Reasonably priced, simple to use AND effective. Like most men, I like to keep things simple and your line does it perfectly...no fussing. You keep my skin clear, smooth and even-toned. It's all I ever wanted from any product…the benefits of looking younger…I'll take that as icing on the cake. Thanks again and PLEASE don't disappear on me.

I have been using your products for many years and I am happy to report that at 46 years old with three children I still get compliments on my skin. Even from skin care professionals! Estheticians always ask me what I use on my skin. Of course, they are always trying to sell me their products. I figured out a long time ago that…my budget could not withstand their prices. Your Alpha Hydrox product has allowed me to control the fine lines on my face and stay looking younger. My face is really smooth and soft. I have friends ask me often what product I use. I tell them it is my best-kept secret. Most of my friends opt for the expensive department store products but not me. I know a good thing when I see one.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for releasing these products on the market!  Years ago, I tried Alpha Hydrox to help with my acne problem and uneven skin tone, and I saw great results.  Some way, some how, I stopped using the product, seduced away by the empty promises of numerous beauty treatments, and after a while, I couldn't find Alpha Hydrox in stores anymore.  Everything was salicylic acid, beta hydroxy acids, CoQ10, retinol, and all the ingredients du jour that have come and gone.  Nothing ever worked as well and my face paid the price.  Imagine my surprise and delight when I rediscovered your products after years of not only acne scars, and hyperpigmentation but now, in my 30's, photodamage.  Well, let me tell you, after less than a month my skin is smoother, more even toned, and virtually acne free!  It has taken years off my face and my complexion is absolutely radiant.  People are starting to ask what's new in my life.  New boyfriend?  A raise on the job?  Little do they know it's a new complexion and a new love for my old favorite!  Thanks again!
Karen

Thank you so much!!! Never in my life have I been so amazed by any product.

I am a 48 year old man who tried your Foaming Face wash a couple of years ago and was instantly hooked on the way it made my skin feel and look - and was especially pleased that it was scent free. That prompted me to try your other products - I recently ordered your "Let's Get Started" kit of the new line of products and they are all wonderful and scent free - which I really like. I know that you target your advertising towards women, but I'll bet that there are a lot of men that use them too - and a lot of men who would use them more if they knew they were scent free and easy to use. Us guys like healthy skin too you know! :)

I just want to thank you all for such a wonderful product, 12% AH Soufflé.  My skin is in the best condition I've ever seen! This miracle soufflé has replaced my previous jars of promises. It has cleared my blackheads, refined my pores, acne scars are vanishing, texture and tone are greatly improved.  I have a glow that I don't even want to cover up with make-up. I highly recommend this product and am grateful I found it.  I can't believe the (low) price.
Jennifer
P.S. Your products are the buzzword all over the skincare and beauty boards.  Thank you again for such an awesome product at a most amazing price! 

I wanted to tell you how much I love the new Alpha Hydrox line. I have used Alpha Hydrox for over 10 years.  Ever so often I try another brand but always come back to the red box (thank you for having packaging that makes it so easy to find…) Your products help me to put my best face forward. I love the Sheer Silk Moisturizer because it also contains a sun block. Plus the light-diffusing ingredients truly make my face glow - it looks terrific. I find it so easy to apply makeup over the moisturizer - everything glides on… So thanks again from one very satisfied customer.

I just want to say thank you, thank you, thank you on improving a truly great product that does what it says it will do! I used the original Alpha Hydrox for years. I ordered the 12% Soufflé formula, the cleanser, and also the 14% Facial Peel kit. I am fair-skinned, and you would think my skin would not tolerate it but I have not had any problems with irritation, redness, or anything unpleasant or uncomfortable. I love your products and they all do wonders for my face and overall complexion... I have spent hundreds of dollars on department store brands before I wised up and started using your products. None of them made my face look as great as your products do! It feels like soft, smooth silk! I do not use any other anti-aging products. I don't go to the dermatologist for Botox, Renova, or any of that stuff. I've never had any kind of face-lift treatment either. My face is my face, and it looks great thanks to you!
