I heard AHA ingredient contained products, if applied in the morning, can actually darken the skin. Is that true?
Thanks!  |

| I've not heard this but then I always apply my AHA at night anyway. I think you can definitely use it during the day, but you MUST wear a good sunscreen. Actually, you should no matter what time of day you use an AHA. |

| I've used a moisturizer which contains AHA (LP Skin Caviar Luxe Cream) during the day without any problems before although I suspect the percentage of AHA to be really low. However, I always wear a good sunscreen. It's a must whether I use a moisturizer with AHA or not. |

| I wouldnt use it during the day. I heard you shouldnt as it can make you more sensitive to the sun. |

AHA will cause the skin to be sun sensitive. Just make sure to apply sunscreen during the day  |

I've heard this too...AHA will make skin more sensitive to the sun.
Personally, I wouldn't wear it during the day since we are all already having such a fight with the sun as it is. |

| AHA is "phototoxic" which can increase the risk of sunburn. |

Thanks for sharing!
Andaman_gypsy, actually I had this LP sin caviar luxe cream. It has some little shining sparkle but it worked not a thing on me. And it is a little flaky which gives me an illusion whether it is a exfoliator. Do you have the same experience? Now I have given it away to a friend who is a little older than me.
Still own a few eye essense and cream from LP. Still not working. So expensive stuff doesnt always work wonder!  |

| I thought you can use AHA day and night. But anyway do not forget to wear good sunscreen. |
