HOW TO USE HYALURONIC SERUM
Hyaluronic acid is a very popular ingredient in DIY skincare products and we highly recommend it for all skin types.
Hyaluronic acid is a water soluble ingredient, so always use it in the water phase of formulations, or combined with water or other water soluble ingredients.
It can be used on its own on the skin or added to skin care products and formulations up to 20%.
Hyaluronic acid is best used mornings and evenings after cleansing, applied to wet skin to draw in the moisture.
Applied topically it rejuvenates the appearance of dry, dull skin and improves its suppleness and elasticity
