Ceramides are half the mortar holding your skin together, and running low is why skin turns tight and reactive. Here is how replacing them repairs a struggling barrier.
Lactic acid exfoliates and hydrates at the same time, which makes it the AHA for dry and easily irritated skin. Here is how it compares to glycolic and how to use it.
Glycolic acid is the smallest exfoliating acid, so it reaches deepest and does the most for texture, tone and fine lines. Here is how to use it without overdoing it.
Hyaluronic acid holds a thousand times its weight in water and plumps skin the same day. Here is how to apply it so it works, and why it sometimes backfires.
Niacinamide calms redness, strengthens the barrier, evens pigment and regulates oil, all without irritation. Here is why four to five percent is the number and how it fits with everything else.
Peptides tell your skin cells to build collagen, and they do it without any irritation. Here is what the different types actually do and how to read a peptide label.
Retinoids build collagen, clear pores and fade pigment, with decades of research behind them. Here is how to read the labels and how to start without giving up in week three.
Vitamin C intercepts the daily damage from sun and pollution, fades dark patches and is required for your skin to build collagen. Here is how it works and which form suits your skin.
Vitamin E protects the fatty part of your skin barrier from sun and pollution damage, and it works best paired with vitamin C. Here is why that pairing matters, and why the research does not back putting it on a scar.
Licorice root slows the excess pigment behind dark spots and soothes redness on reactive skin. Here is how its compounds work, what the research shows and how to use it every day.
The antioxidant serum in this kit contains an extensive blend of 19 total antioxidants—far beyond traditional formulas—and includes internal defense technology to address oxidative stress from within. The retinoid is paired with glycolic acid in a patented AlphaRet complex for powerful results with little-to-no irritation.
Yes. Alto Advanced can be used morning and evening, while AlphaRet is designed for nighttime use. If you’re new to retinoids, start with AlphaRet every other night for the first 1–2 weeks, then increase to nightly as tolerated.
Alto Advanced has been clinically tested for use after non-ablative fractional laser, making it a great choice for post-procedure recovery. AlphaRet should generally be avoided for several days after treatments that leave skin sensitive—follow your provider’s guidance.
Yes. Alto Advanced works to brighten and even skin tone while defending against new discoloration, and AlphaRet promotes cell turnover to smooth fine lines and fade existing uneven pigmentation over time.
Absolutely. Retinoids and antioxidant treatments work best when paired with daily SPF. Sun protection not only prevents new damage but also supports the corrective results of both products.
