I bought two of these and put them straight on my face in the evenings. It makes my face feel very tight and not moisturised at all. Am I using this product correctly? It doesn't feel like I am. |

I use the HA mixed with my Decleor oils to help move the oil around my face more evenly. If you use HA on it's own you will feel dry but if you add on a serum or moisturizer it seems to help the serum or moisturizer work better. |

Thank you Rufus. Do I need to use an oil or can I use something else like a cream? I also use Retin-A in the evenings but I apply this after my cream. I do cleanse my skin with the oil cleansing method though. |

Hi Anna,
i use PSF's HA under my eyes - first i put on the HA and then my regular eye cream on the top. It sinks in nicely and you don't have the stickiness of the HA anymore.

Hi Anna, if you use retinol, I would put the HA serum on first, then the retinol cream on top. (of course wait for the HA to absorb first before putting on the cream) |

You can mix HA with your moisturiser, so you'll avoid that feeling of tightness. HA can be used on its own only in hot humid environment when it's enough water in the air. Otherwise, used on its own, it'd suck water out from your skin. |

I use the HA with the Decleor Ylang Ylang, then on top a sunscreen. You can just use a moisturizer on top as well. |

Been told mix 2 drops together with the moisturiser rather than putting in on then moisturiser.
Guess everyone is different, try out both method and let us know how u like it too.
Also been told, should use a moisturiser afterward as they also evaporate like water on skin. Not sure. |

that's correct, HA serum has to be followed with a moisturiser. |

Perhaps one of you could shed light on this issue. I just purchased HA Serum from PSF. I need to incorporate it into my current regimine, which is the following
Morning:
1. Cleanse
2.Philosphy Vit. C Powder mixed with Philosophy Serum
3. Philosphy Eye cream.
Evening:
1. Cleanse
2. Philosphy Retinol Cream.
I assumed that maybe I could slip in the HA serum in the morning, before the Vitamin C regimin. Or, perhaps I could mix the Vitamin C powder with the HA Serum?
In the Evening, I thought that I could use the HA Serum before the Retinol cream.
Any thoughts on this. I guess my main question is if the Vit. C Powder will be diminished by the HA serum if I mix them together. |
