Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is an effective ingredient for hydrating the skin. Long-term use of hyaluronic acid in skincare will improve skin elasticity, flexibility, and texture through hydration.

Hyaluronic acid for the skin is safe to use every day. Applying hyaluronic acid products yields the best results when applied twice daily.

Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the body, and should pose no danger.

Which ingredient is better between hyaluronic acid and retinol depends on what you are trying to accomplish for your skin. Hyaluronic acid is most effective at hydrating the skin, while retinol increases collagen production. Both ingredients are known to increase the skin’s elasticity and firmness.

Hyaluronic acid and retinol can be used together. Using hyaluronic acid with retinol can also help to reduce some side effects as skin adjusts to retinol.

Retinol should be applied first then hyaluronic acid can be applied once retinol has absorbed.
