Pure Body Naturals Hyaluronic Acid Serum Helps to Moisturize and Maintain Skin

Container:This product comes in a clear glass container with a pump dispenser. This keeps the product fresh and does not expose it to the environment or open air, minimizing oxidation and contamination. The product is made in the USA, is not tested on animals, is cruelty free, and remains fresh for 12 months from opening.
Ingredients: Organic Herbal Infusion, Organic Aloe, Witch Hazel, Botanical Hyaluronic Acid, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, MSM, Hydroxyethyl Cellulose, Carrageenan Gum, Organic Jojoba Oil, Wildcrafted Green Tea, Geranium Essential Oil, Vitamins C & E, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Ethyl Hexyl Glycerin
The Product: With the easy-to-use pump, only 2 pumps are needed to dispense enough product to cover the face. An additional pump will cover the chin and neck area. The product goes on smoothly, is easy to gently blend over the skin. It immediately starts hydrating and moisturizing skin. Any tightness or dryness of the skin goes away and skin feels soothed and smoothed. The product has a light rose scent which fades following application. Because there is hyaluronic acid in this serum, the skin continues to hold moisture and remains smooth and soft even after 24 hours. I definitely would recommend this product to keep skin moist and healthy. While you may not have exactly the same response as I did, this is still a great product for maintaining healthy skin and combating dryness.

I did receive this product for free to provide an honest review via tomoson.com, however, I only post exactly how I feel about the products after I have used them myself.

Foxbrim Total Hair Repair Oil Works to Rejuvenate Hair


Container: The product comes in an amber glass bottle with a pump applicator top. It easily dispenses a small amount of the product with each pump. This product is not tested on animals, is made in the USA, and is good for 12 months after opening the container.

Ingredients: Organic Sunflower Oil, Organic Argan Oil, Fractionated Coconut Oil, Organic Jojoba Oil, Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Olive Oil, Grapeseed Oil, and Shea Butter

The Product: The directions say to pump a small amount into palms, apply for 10 minutes, 2 hours or overnight, then shampoo, and can apply a small amount as needed for a styling fluid and restorative elixir. It only takes a few pumps to dispense enough to cover ends and about 7 inches of hair to the roots. Immediately, it smoothed my hair, added a great shine, and helped my hair look hydrated. The next day, I shampooed and applied conditioner. I could tell that the Hair Repair Oil had done it's work. My hair remained smooth, hydrated, and had a glossy shine. I did add a little bit to smooth the sides of my hair where I had not fully applied it. This is the first product that has actually lasted beyond a shampoo. My hair remained hydrated and glistening for 2 days until my next shampoo. Even after that my hair looked more hydrated and was much easier to manage. I have continued my use of this product, using it about once a week to maintain the look of clean, shiny and manageable hair. It is not greasy and did not seem to go anywhere other than into my hair shaft. No mess on pillows or clothes. It has definitely improved my hair's texture, as it is usually dry and frizzy. Now it is much smoother and I have significantly less problems with the frizziness. I do sometimes use a tiny amount between treatments if my hair does become frizzy. I have had many compliments on my hair since using the Total Hair Repair Oil. I do plan to continue use of this product because it actually works and has kept my hair looking great. While you might not get exactly the same results, I think overall you will be satisfied that the product does what it says. My big piece of advice is to not use too much. You can always add more, but if you get too much on the hair it might look oily. This has been excellent for my dry hair, so if you hair is not dry, use even less until you know how it will make your hair look.

Foxbrim Ultra Lift Treatment Improves Facial Appearance



Container: The product comes in a plastic pump-style container. It has a small stopped where the product is released. This reduces any contaminants entering the bottle. It is 1.7 fluid oz. The container is recyclable. The product is not tested on animals, is made in the USA, and stays fresh for 12 months after opening.

Ingredients: Organic Aloe Vera, Palm Oil, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Glycolic Acid, Botanical Hyaluronic Acid, Olive Oil, Lactic Acid, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, Castor Oil, Glyceryl Stearate, Organic Safflower Oil, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Glucoside, Stearyl Alcohol, Coenzyme Q10, Silk Protein Amino Acid Blend, Shea Butter, Organic Jojoba Oil, Vitamin B5, Phytic Acid, Phospholipids, Vitamin E, Lecithin, Lemon, Apple, Sugar Cane, Peptides, Lemongrass, Vitamin C Palmitate, Sclerotium Gum, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Hydroxide, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexyl Glycerin, Xanthane Gum, Allantoin, Pentylene Glycol, Retinol, Polysorbate 20, Potassium Phosphate, Wildcrafted Green Tea, Citric Acid, Benzyl Alcohol.

The Product: The product is described as a Professional Formula. While it is listed as fragrance free there is a slight, pleasant scent. You only need 2 pumps of the product to cover the face and neck. The product is a rather thick white cream. It spreads on easily and smoothly. Immediately the rich, emollient cream goes to work. You can continue to spread it or allow it to be absorbed naturally into the skin. The goal of this product is to restore softer, smoother skin. There are significant ingredients that work to do this. My old friend hyaluronic acid is there, which works to increase moisture and moisture retention in the skin. There are also ingredients that will help to remove dead skin cells and increase the smoothness of the skin. And there are healing ingredients to help the skin recover from the daily battering by the environment. In a short time the cream is fully absorbed and you can see the results. Pores look smaller, skin appears smoother, with added firmness. Tiny lines are reduced. Once fully absorbed I applied my foundation, actually a BB cream which has many of the same benefits as this cream. My skin looked radiant, smooth and younger. I was surprised when I washed off my makeup that the softness and smoothness remained.

I have used a number of products by Foxbrim and I have been satisfied with them all. While your results may not be exactly like mine, I would recommend this product for everyone looking for improved skin appearance and ongoing smoothness and softness. You can purchase this product at Amazon.com at: Ultra Lift Treatment

Alpha Garcinia Cambogia Helps with the Hungry Horrors



What is it?: Garcinia Cambogia is described as an appetite suppressant that also burns fat, and increases metabolism. Serotonin levels are also increased which often works to make people feel less hungry. Garcinia Cambogia is an extract from the rind of the tamarind fruit and the active ingredient os this is hydroxycitric acid (HCA). The product, Alpha Garcinia Cambogia contains 50% HCA.

What's in this product?: Alpha's Garcinia Cambogia contains Garcinia Cambogia 1000 mg (50% HCA), Calcium, Chromium, Potassium, Gelatin, Microcrystalline Cellulose, and Magnesium Stearate. The product is made in the USA.

How did it work for me?: The recommended dosage is 2 capsules once a day with a full glass of water, preferably 30 minutes before a meal. I took this dosage and did notice a decrease in appetite and a slight elevation in mood and energy. It helped to decrease my desire for snacks between and after meals. I was able to feel full after an average meal, with no need to go back for “seconds”. I lost about 2 pounds during the time I was taking it.

Overall, I was satisfied with the results. With the feeling of increased energy I moved more and did not tire as easily. I was glad to not have hunger pangs throughout the day. There are a wide variety of Garcinia Cambogia supplements, mainly with varying levels or percentages of HCA. While I can't guarantee that anyone else will have the same results as I had, the product helped me keep my appetite down and my activity up.

Dr. Song 50% Lactic Acid Gel Peel is Strong, but Gentle


Container: The product comes in a large blue and white box, and is wrapped in bubble wrap. Inside is a card noting that the detailed instructions on usage have been sent to the email associated with the Amazon account. I did not receive the directions, but went to the website to learn how to use the product. Also, inside the large box is the actual Gel Peel. It is a 1 fluid oz. glass bottle with an eye dropper cap. This protects the product from contamination and oxidation. It is easy to dispense the small amount needed for application. Unfortunately, there are no directions for use on the bottle itself. One recommendation would definitely be to have the instructions either in the large box (there is plenty of room), or on the bottle itself. While you can get the instructions for this specific peel from the Dr. Song website, and view numerous YouTube videos about Lactic Acid Peels, having them included with the product shows professionalism and could reduce possible inappropriate usage. There is a warning on the bottle to Use at your own risk.

Ingredients: The listed ingredients are Lactic acid, purified water, sodium carboxyl-methylcellulose, propylene glycol.

The Product: Peels are designed to remove flaky and dead skin. The recommended time to leave on after application is 1 minute, gradually increasing the time as needed, with application occurring every 1-3 weeks. I had seen reviews of Lactic Acid peels in general stating that 1. these were gentler than other chemical peels, 2. it was easy and quick to do the peel, and 3. the biggest complaint was the smell of the product. I opened the product to take a sniff. While there was a chemical smell, it was not overpowering. It seemed to smell somewhat like burned fruit. It is very important to do a patch test, applying a small amount to skin to see if there is a reaction. I tested a tiny amount on my wrist with no after effects. Using the eye dropper I applied a small amount to a cotton ball and carefully applied to my face. It is extremely important to avoid the eye area, applying at least 1/2 inch away from the entire eye socket. The one dropper full was enough for my entire face. I waited 60 seconds and removed gently with soap and water. My skin immediately looked and felt smoother. It did not feel irritated and there was no stinging. Indeed, in that short time, the peel had removed all the flakes and dead skin. It was gentle, easy to apply, only used a small amount, and, best of all, it worked well. I decided to try to apply it to the callused area on the bottom of my foot. Again, I dropped a small amount to a cotton ball and applied it. I waited the 60 seconds and removed with soap and water. I was amazed! In that short time it had removed about half the dead skin on the callus and my skin felt softer. I anticipate that continued use will clear up that callus. While your results may vary, and taking all indicated precautions, I can recommend this product as gentle enough for facial skin, but strong enough for even calluses on your feet. My only recommendation is that Dr. Song Medicals include detailed instructions with each product. And it is important that you follow the instructions exactly. As it said 'Use at your own risk', but it might be just the thing to help your skin look and feel better.

Morea Naturals Hyaluronic Acid Age Delaying Serum works wonders

 

Container: Morea Naturals Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Age Delaying Serum comes in a white plastic pump bottle. There is also a small stopper to cover the dispensing opening. This is a near perfect container because it is easy to use and also fully protects the product from oxidation, pollution or stray contamination. It is a generous 1.7 oz. size. It is Paraben Free, Cruelty Free, and 72% Organic. The only thing missing is an indication of the shelf life once the product is opened. The indications for use and directions are minimal and don't really describe the full benefits of this great product.

Ingredients: Organic Herbal Infusion, Organic Aloe, Witch Hazel, Botanical Hyaluronic Acid, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, MSM, Hydroxyethyl Cellulose, Carrageenan Gum, Organic Jojoba Oil, Wildcrafted Green Tea, Geranium Essential Oil, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Ethyl Hexyl Glycerin

The Product: This product is in a gel form when dispensed. Only 1 pump is needed to dispense enough to cover the face, with another pump for the neck area. The gel spreads easily and quickly.  Once applied there is a cooling feeling to the skin as the product is quickly absorbed. There is a slight mild rose scent which fades as the product is absorbed. I could instantly feel my skin becoming hydrated and soothed. This is an excellent gel for morning or night. Because it absorbs so quickly and fully, with no stickiness, the product is perfect to wear under makeup. Once absorbed, my skin felt much softer and smoother. This effect continued until the product was removed by cleansing. I have talked before about the benefits of hyaluronic acid. It is terrific for aging skin, fully hydrating and helping the skin retain the moisture, without being greasy or heavy. Morea Naturals HA Serum does this perfectly. Continued use of this serum helps the skin to remain hydrated and smoothes tiny lines and wrinkles. I definitely recommend this product as it works well for my skin and has fewer ingredients than other similar products. Some products add in a whole variety of ingredients, but too many can lead to sensitivity and side effects from use. Morea has just enough to do the job. They also have a lifetime guarantee in case there are any issues.

This product can be purchased on their website: http://www.moreanaturals.com or on Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LWGCC84/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_1

Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream smooths and soothes

Container: The product is packaged in a lightweight plastic bottle with a pump dispenser. This packaging is especially good for preserving the product from the effects of oxidation, and airborne contaminants. You can dispense a small or large amount of product.  The product has a white, creamy consistency. The product is made in the USA, is not tested on animals and has a shelf life of 24 months once opened.

Ingredients: The listed ingredients are Purified Water, Organic Aloe, Organic Sunflower Oil, Botanical Hyaluronic Acid, Witch Hazel, Glycolic Acid, MSM, Glyceryl Stearate, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Squalane, Lactic Acid, Palm Oil, Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Octyl Palmitate, Organic Coconut Oil, Cocoa Butter, Cetyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Glucoside, Stearyl Alcohol, Potassium Stearate, Vitamin C, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Sea Fennel Wax, Matrixyl 3000, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, Cucumber Hydrosol, Carbomer, (2s)-2-Amino-5-guanidinopentanoic Acid, Organic Beeswax, Organic Jojoba Oil, Tamanu Oil, Wildcrafted Green Tea, R Lipoic Acid, Bearberry Extract, Blueberry Extract, Organic Cranberry, Raspberry Seed Oil, Organic Grape, Organic Licorice, Eyebright, Helichrysum Essential Oil, Camellia Oil, Avocado Oil, Geranium Essential Oil, Organic Borage Oil, Organic Flax Seed Oil, Organic Evening Primrose Oil, Organic Rosehip Oil, Coenzyme Q10, Vitamin E Acetate, Phytic Acid, Phospholipids, Lecithin, Apple, Lemon, Sugar Cane, Peptides, Lemongrass, Butylene Glycol, Vitamin C Palmitate, Fragrance, Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, Sclerotium Gum, Potassium Sorbate, Vitamin B5, Wildcrafted Arnica, Organic Lavender, Organic Calendula, Organic Chamomile, Grapeseed Oil, Macadamia Nut Oil, Sodium Carbomer, Xanthane Gum, Phenoxyethnol, Ethyl Hexyl Glycerin, Benzyl Alcohol

The Product: The product is a lightweight cream. It blends well, and absorbs within a few minutes. Only a very small amount is needed near the eye area. It is important to not get this product, or any other product directly in the eye. Also, when applying, gently pat the product on, no rubbing or stretching of the skin around the eye. The product soothes dry skin and rehydrates. Fine lines are smoothed out and the skin looks fresh and dewy. I often pat around the eye socket too, to rehydrate that skin, especially the skin under the eye that can start to sag. The product is non-greasy, so it can be worn under makeup. The large amount of ingredients shows many emollients, oils, and, my favorite, hyaluronic acid. The Matrixyl 3000 works in conjunction with the hyaluronic acid, boosting it's hydrating power. The only thing that I wish was better is that it came in a fragrance-free formulation. The fragrance is rather strong, slightly spicy. Worn during the day it could conflict with perfume or other scents. The fragrance also does not disappear once the product is absorbed. Finally, Body Merry has a 100% guarantee for their products.

Body Merry Hyaluronic Dew Serum defeats dryness

Container: The Body Merry Hyaluronic Dew Serum comes in a blue glass bottle with eye dropper dispensing. This protects the product from spoilage and makes it easy to use. The serum is gel-like so you can dispense the small amount needed to cover the face. The product is made in the USA, is not tested on animals and has a 12 month shelf life after opening.

Ingredients: Organic Herbal Water, Organic Aloe, Witch Hazel, Plant Derived Hyaluronic Acid, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, MSM, Hydroxyethyl Cellulose, Carrageenan Gum, Organic Jojoba Oil, Wildcrafted Green Tea, Geranium Essential Oil, Vitamins C & E, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, and Ethyl Hexyl Glycerin. These ingredients are considered 100% Vegan.

The Product: The Hyaluronic Dew Serum has a light rose scent. It is of a gel-like consistency, but is easily drawn up by the eye-dropper applicator. It is recommended to use a small amount and one-two drops will cover the face, with an additional drop covering the jaw and neck area. Care has been taken by Body Merry to use organic, kosher, and natural ingredients to form a safer product that is gentle to skin. After a day wearing mineral makeup, my skin was very dry and actually peeling on my forehead. I cleansed off my makeup and immediately applied the Dew Serum. It absorbed readily, with no stickiness after absorption. Within a short period of time the dryness and peeling was relieved. My skin felt hydrated, smooth and soft. This even lasted until the next day. Since it absorbs so readily, it is perfect for under make-up application. Hyaluronic Acid helps to keep the skin hydrated. When the skin is more hydrated tiny lines and wrinkles are minimized. It also provides a soft and smooth surface for make-up application. Once the make-up is removed the skin remains soft, but it is recommended to use the Serum daily to fight off the drying effects of make-up, pollution, and cold and dry air. The addition of the Organic Aloe helps healing for any skin areas that may be sunburned, wind-chapped or raw. I definitely would recommend this product for daily use. The benefits continue to build to form a hydrated, soft, smooth and happy skin. Finally, Body Merry guarantees 100% satisfaction with their products.

Body Merry Pro-A Serum with 2.5% Retinol, Hyaluronic Acid, and Green Tea


Container: The product comes in an amber glass bottle with an eye dropper. It is easy to withdraw and use a small amount. It seals well and keeps the contents from oxidizing. Product can be dispensed onto a small sponge, brush, or fingertips. The product is made in the USA, is never tested on animals and has a 12 month shelf life after opening.

Ingredients: Organic Herbal Water, Organic Aloe, Plant Derived Hyaluronic Acid, Witch Hazel, Pentylene Glycol, Phospholipids, Retinol, Polysorbate 20, Potassium Phosphate, Hydroxyethyl Cellulose, Carrageenan Gum, Organic Jojoba Oil, Wheat Germ Oil, Vitamin E, Organic Green Tea, Wildcrafted Propolis, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Ethyl Hexyl Glycerin

The Product: I have written before about Hyaluronic Acid and how much it will help firm and tighten skin, minimizing signs of aging, wrinkles and fine lines. Pro-A Serum amps up the benefits of HA by adding Retinol, which is known for also minimizing signs of aging skin. The product is a gel that is cooling to the skin and spreads easily and quickly. It has almost no discernable odor and immediately starts quenching dry skin. It dries quickly and absorbs fully into the skin. You can immediately see that the skin appears tighter, smoother, and small lines nearly disappear. The serum wears well, continuing to hydrate as the day goes along. Also, since the serum absorbs into the skin so well it is perfect under makeup, forming a lasting base that blocks some of the drying effects of some foundations that contain substances such as mica or ground minerals. The product cleans off with soap and water, but there is a lasting hydration that remains even after cleansing. I would definitely recommend this product, especially for those who do not want scented products that can interfere with the perfume a person may use or that can be so strongly scented that it gives the wearer a headache. Once applied you will not know the product is there, but you will see the positive benefits continuing to work on hydrating and smoothing the skin throughout the day and night. It is especially satisfying that the product has organic ingredients, making them safer to use. You can purchase this product at Amazon.com at: Retinol Serum

Life & Food Garcinia Cambogia, Appetite Suppressant and Diet Aid



What is it?: I recently got a chance to try out Life and Food's Garcinia Cambogia Supreme. This is a product that has been discussed by a "famous doctor" on his daytime show. I had heard about Garcinia Cambogia before and wanted to try it, so this sampling opportunity was great for me. Life & Food's Garcinia Cambogia Supreme is 1400 mg capsules with 80% HCA, is described as an appetite suppressant, inhibits fat, and improves energy and serotonin levels. The recommended dosage is 2 per day, about 30 minutes before a meal with a full glass of water. You can take up to 4 capsules per day.

What's in this product?: Life & Food's Garcinia Cambogia Supreme contains Garcinia Cambogia Extract with 80% HCA (Hydroxycitric Acid), Calcium Carbonate, Potassium Chloride, Chromium, and Vegetable Cellulose (which is the capsule that the product comes in). It contains no Soy, Wheat, Shellfish, Peanuts, or Dairy. It is made in the United States at an FDA Registered Facility.

How did it work for me?: I will admit that even though I knew about and wanted to try this product I really didn't think it would do anything. I had read reviews of this product from others and the results were mixed. So, I was very surprised that almost immediately, I started actually feeling full after my evening meal. I didn't have the urge to keep eating later in the evening. Usually, I am a "night" eater and snack after dinner. But after taking the Garcinia, I didn't eat anything until the next morning. Ok, I thought, this must be because I thought it would happen & it did, but then realized it actually was working. I have lost about 2 pounds per week since starting the Garcinia, again, something I didn't suspect would happen. Also, I seemed to have an improved mood, I felt happier and full of energy. I think that this is due to the combination of ingredients in this particular brand's product.

Overall, I am impressed with the effectiveness of Life & Food's Garcinia Cambogia Supreme. While it might not work for some and despite my thinking it wouldn't work for me, it actually did work. I have lost some weight, feel full after my meals, gained energy which helped me to get up and move more, which, in turn helped to lose that weight. I do plan to continue using this product and feel fortunate that it's working.  This is one brand and product I would recommend.

ADOVIA Intensive Anti-Wrinkle Cream


Container: ADOVIA Intensive Anti-Wrinkle cream comes in a wide-mouthed heavy glass jar. Upon opening there is a protective cover, which can be removed and replaced easily to protect the contents from oxidation and contamination. The content is 1.7 fl.oz. The frosted glass jar has a silver cover making it decorative, or at least unobtrusive, jar to have on the vanity.

Ingredients: The main label ingredients are deionized and dead sea water, stearic acid, cetearyl alcohol, butylene glycol, propylene glycol, chamomile, algae extract, papaya, aloe vera gel, sweet almond oil, caprilyc/capric triglyceride, glycerin, dimethicone, carbomer, benzoic acid, chlorphenesin, dehydroacetic acid, benzalkoinium chloride, urea, vetiver, myrrh extract, rose absolute, lactic acid, dead sea salt, retinyl palmtate. The listed expiration time after the jar is opened is 12 months.

The Product: The milky, white, slightly pearlized cream is soft to the touch. It spreads easily and absorbs well. The directions say to use a generous amount, however, I was able to use a dime-sized amount for my face, and another dime-sized amount for my neck. It has a pleasing scent, however the scent does linger, so it might initially conflict with perfume. The scent seems to fade within an hour. Once absorbed my skin did feel slightly sticky to the touch. The directions indicate to use the product daily and that it can be used as a makeup foundation. Living in Louisiana I would prefer to use this as a night cream, as it might become too slippery if used under a sunscreen and tinted foundation. Upon washing my face and neck both were very soft and this softness remained for over 24 hours. My skin felt hydrated and healthy, with no dryness or irritation. I would recommend this product for anyone who is not allergic to the ingredients. While most of the ingredients seem to be natural, some may cause irritation. I will continue to use this product as a night cream and hope for continued benefits to my skin. You can buy this product at Amazon.com at: Adovia Anti Wrinkle Facial Moisturizer Cream

Foxbrim Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamins C&E, MSM



Container: Foxbrim Hyaluronic Acid with Vitamins C&E and MSM comes in a 1 oz. glass bottle with a dropper. The dropper makes it very easy to dispense the small amount of the product that is needed for full face coverage. It also preserves the product and keeps it from contamination by fingers or skin.

Ingredients: The main label ingredients are Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamins C&E, and MSM. The HA is botanical in origin. Also the product includes Aloe, Witch Hazel, Glycerin, Jojoba Oil, Green Tea, and Geranium Essential Oil. The listed expiration time after the bottle is opened is 12 months.

The Product: Dispensing is easy with the dropper, there is no need to touch the dropper or the top or inside of the bottle, which preserves the quality and sanitary condition of the product. The serum is a rather thick gel. The directions say to apply a small amount to face, neck and decollete. Initially, I thought a few drops would not be enough to fully cover my face, neck and upper chest. However, I only needed 2 drops for my face, 1 for neck and 1 for upper chest. The gel spreads easily and smoothly with a great fluid texture. There is a clean, fresh light scent of rose on application. Once on the skin the scent does not linger, which is good, in my opinion, as it will not interfere with any perfume I may also use. The serum becomes absorbed very quickly and does not leave any greasy or sticky residue. The gel penetrates so easily and rapidly that this is perfect under makeup or sunscreen. Continued use of the serum left my skin smooth and the pores seemed minimized. My skin did not dry out and I had no negative reaction to the product. I was very impressed with this serum and would definitely recommend it. This is a product that I trust. As a fan of HA, I believe continued use would help decrease fine lines on my face and neck.

Hyaluronic Acid

I have long been a fan of Hyaluronic Acid for use on the skin, knees, and face. Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance in the body. HA cushions and lubricates. It can be used topically to increase the moisture held in the skin and to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. It is also used in an injectable form to improve the cushion and lubrication of joints and as a filler in the face to fill in deeper lines. When used topically on the skin it is readily absorbed and provides near immediate moisture to the skin. It penetrates and helps the skin retain moisture. HA can be used alone or with other ingredients to improve skin appearance.

That being said, I will be reviewing a number of topical products containing HA. While it is not truly a fountain of youth, it does work for many to create or recreate a younger appearance. I use it and it works for me. Can it do the same for you???
