There are many common mistakes that many people make when using HA serum. How to fix it to make your skin plump and hydrated, let’s hear about it below.
HA stands for Hyaluronic Acid – a magical moisturizing ingredient. Everyone who wants to moisturize their skin thinks of HA serum. However, many people complain about why after using this famous type of water supply, their skin not only does not become smooth and supple, but on the contrary, it becomes even more dry and disastrous. That’s because you haven’t used it properly. Applying HA seems easy, but actually there are many things to keep in mind.
Hyaluronic Acid was first discovered in 1934, found in cow’s eyes, is a sugar molecule, with a molecular mass much larger than regular molecules. Because of its special structure, one of the properties of HA that many people love is its outstanding ability to retain water, with 1g of HA holding up to 6 liters of water. Thanks to its amazing water retention, people brought HA right into the cosmetics industry. Not only HA serum but also creams containing this substance are also passionately loved. It not only has a moisturizing effect but also has anti-aging properties for the skin. HA acts as the main source of nutrition, making the collagen membrane abundant, the skin elastic and significantly reducing wrinkles.
The excellent moisturizing and anti-aging effects make HA a priority choice for many women. Don’t use HA arbitrarily. If you use it incorrectly, it will really dehydrate your skin. Some mistakes that many people often make. First, HA is like a desiccant, absorbing from one environment to another. Therefore, using HA serum is prone to reverse evaporation. Air humidity below 70% will cause HA to absorb water from the skin back into the outside environment. Many people apply only HA serum, which is wrong. You have to apply extra lotion and cream to lock moisture in your skin. Don’t wait for the HA serum to absorb, but apply it immediately to avoid the moisture being sucked back.
The next mistake is combining HA serum with some incorrect ingredients. It is clear that HA is naturally benign and when used with artificial scents, essential oils or alcohol, the effectiveness of HA is greatly lost.
If you point out a mistake, you have to show how to fix it to get the lesson right, right? The downside of HA is that it absorbs moisture, so to use HA you need lotion or cream to lock moisture in the skin. Absolutely do not apply HA directly to dry skin as this will make the skin even drier. You should apply toner, use a paper mask or else, spray mineral water on your skin and then use HA serum. When using HA in dry conditions, you should use a humidifier for HA to work best on dry skin. Hopefully this knowledge is useful for the whole family. Anyone can use HA because it is super benign, but subjectively applying it as usual is not advisable.
Don’t wait until your skin has completely absorbed the dry toner before applying HA serum. This is also something that should not be done. Just keep applying the steps from toner, mineral spray while your skin is still damp, then immediately apply serum, followed by immediately using moisturizer to lock in moisture.
Do you see that all these quick steps are a good way? Normally, when using many other types, such as retinol or vitamin C… for example, you need to wait for the essence to absorb before applying the next step. As for this serum, there is no need for that, just feel free to use it immediately, it also brings benefits to the skin without causing any harm at all.
