This incredible product smooths, softens, and restores radiance to your skin in just 8 minutes.
Over time, your fine lines and age spots begin to fade, your pores are minimized and firmness increases.
How does this work? The product formula uses a unique and self-adjusting mushroom enzyme that adapts to the skin’s pH and knows precisely when to turn itself off. It gently uncovers fresh, new skin without any irritation associated with a traditional chemical peel.
To sum it up, it’s a luminous, resurfaced complexion in 8 minutes flat – no pain, no hassle.

One of the fastest ways to improve the appearance of your skin is by exfoliation. Exfoliation helps the skin look its best by removing the dead skin cells and revealing the new, fresh skin underneath. Everyone can benefit from this important and simple step that will uncover your luminous skin, reduce the appearance of lines, wrinkles and pores, and will help with penetration of skin care products.
There are many options in the world of skin care when it comes to exfoliating products. One of the most common and popular is a scrub. When considering a scrub, make sure that the particles are perfectly spherical. That way they are not going to create microscopic scratches on your skin. Artistry’s Polishing Scrub is a perfect example of such a product. If you have delicate skin you can apply the scrub on to the wet face and gently exfoliate from the bottom of your face going up in small circles. If your skin is tougher, you can apply the scrub directly to the dry face and use Artistry’s Microexfoliation Cloth. The cloth will help to improve the performance of the scrub.
Many exfoliants contain Alpha Hydroxy Acids or AHAs. They have the ability to exfoliate and smooth the skin’s surface chemically and can be a great choice for people with more mature, resistant skin types. Artistry’s Alpha Hydroxy Serum Plus can make the skin feel smoother by 60% in just 12 weeks! It is gentle enough for most skin types and can be applied after toner in the morning and at night.
For people who experience acne, products with Beta Hydroxy Acids or BHAs would be a great choice. The most common acid in that group is Salicylic acid. It is used to target acne and clear pores.
When exfoliation is done on the regular basis, the new, fresh skin becomes more exposed and vulnerable. To protect it, use of sunscreen should become an everyday habit.
What does cleansing your face at night really do for your skin?
This is a question that we all know the answer but sometimes our schedules make us feel like we can skip this beauty routine step once in a while.
Cleansing your face at night has, of course, the obvious benefit of removing your makeup. It's my opinion there is nothing worse than waking up in the morning with last nights mascara all over your face and pillow.
Yes, you are right that removing makeup is one reason to cleanse at night but the hidden reasons are equally important. All day long, your skin is bombarded by pollution, dirt and debris called environmental aggressors that can cause all kinds of problems such as breakouts, irritation and loss of clarity. These are all things that cause the skin to age so I guess you could say skipping this step also helps age your skin.
Another benefit of night time cleansing is your night time skin care products work more efficiently. Even if you have had a day that you have not worn makeup and just your moisturizer, you still need to cleanse your face at night to remove your days worth of environmental aggressors. Night time products are designed to work on clean skin using the body's higher temperature that occur during sleep.
Let's make a commitment that we are always going to cleanse our face at night even after the busiest of days and benefit with better skin, better sleep and no more mascara stains on our pillow cases!
Expression lines are a funny thing. They are like a roadmap of where you have been in your life. Sometimes, the journey was grueling and sometimes, quite simply delightful. I have a love-hate relationship with my lines for they are part of who I am and what made me, but sometimes, they don’t express who I am today—especially those persistent sentinels that have taken station in between my brows. The other lines are the “hanger-onrs,” the guys that hang above the sentinels. Most of these were born of those times that tested our mettle that challenged us to be better than we are. Although we manage to survive these times, we are sometimes left with remnants of the bumps in the road…hanging out all over our forehead.
Since I started using the Artistry Crème Luxury, I must admit I’m seeing more of my own personality and less of my history etched across my face! Quite noticeably were my hanger-onrs, who were reaching like Michelangelo’s angels across the Sistine Chapel to bring the two sides together. Thankfully, the rich moisturization and cellular regeneration has actually opened up the space in the middle of my forehead. I’m seeing quite an improvement not only in these lines but in my overall face as well.
I asked my husband about a week after I started using Crème Luxury if he noticed any difference. He turned his attention away from an episode of “Snapped” on TV and looked over at me, squinting his eyes and then he did something. He raised a brow and noted, “you look more glowy.” Then he went back to watching T.V. Glowy is good. As a matter of fact “Glowy” is really good because one of the things I didn’t like about how my face was changing was that I was losing the brightness and overall even tone it once had. I can honestly say I’ve been seeing more radiance and less tired looking skin.
During the early phases of my trial with Crème Luxury I wasn’t using any other anti-aging product and I received these results. This week I added the Artistry Time Defiance 3D Lifting Serum and was amazed at the results. Try these two together and let me know what you discover!
I am 49. I have no issue saying it loud and saying it proud, because deep inside I still feel like I’m 23. The only glitch in this positivity plan is quite frankly the mirror! That handy little household item that once held a vision of a rosy cheeked high-spirited young woman now holds a completely different vision. However, is that so bad? Nope. But one of the tricky things about making peace with the mirror is finding a way to allow that inner beauty to radiate. That’s right, I said radiate because it’s not about covering up what you have, it’s about bringing out your best.
For our generation, using a skin care system in our 20’s was a “nice thing to do.” In our thirties, some of us viewed our changes such as “laugh lines,” as curious mementos of a life-lived. As we headed into our 40’s we saw these curious mementos taking on a more “hard-line” stance so to speak. Our pores have gotten larger, some of our fine lines were…well…not so fine, and skin dryness? Wow! That was a whole new world…in a drought.
Like most of us, I started moisturizing regularly in my 30’s all the while thinking, “I'm going to look great at 50, 60…” and so on. But that moisturizer I used in my 30’s just doesn’t cut it as I stand at 50’s doorstep. I searched like a wanderer in a desert for a moisturizer that could retain oddly enough, moisture! After many stops at more dried up oases, I found my Big Gulp. The new Artistry Crème Luxury was the answer to my Saharan problem! The first night I tried it, I discovered that unlike my other moisturizer, I could actually walk from my bathroom to my bed and my face still felt moisturized! Who knew?
So I started looking into what is allowing my skin to feel soft and supple? Crazy technical things like Cardiolipin – a rare lipid that helps generate skin renewal and Nutrilite Spinach Extract, which was not particularly my favorite veggie, but helps to repair past damage and protect against future damage. All I know is that my skin felt like it had its first drink of water in 20 years! They say that every journey begins with the first step. I’m excited to share with you my Crème Luxury journey so check back often to see how things are shaping up!
