How to Use When to Use: Apply morning (AM) and evening (PM) after cleansing and toning, before heavier serums or creams.

Application: Cleanse and tone the skin.

Dispense 2-3 drops of Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 onto slightly damp skin and gently massage across the face and neck.

Follow with other serums (e.g., The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%) and a moisturizer to lock in hydration.

Tips: Apply to damp skin to enhance hyaluronic acid’s moisture-binding properties.

Pair with The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA for amplified hydration.

Use after exfoliating toners (e.g., The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner) to soothe and hydrate post-exfoliation.

Store in the fridge for a refreshing application, especially in warmer climates.

Precautions Patch Test Recommended: Apply a small amount to the inner forearm and monitor for 24 hours. Discontinue if irritation occurs, though this product is generally well-tolerated.

No Major Conflicts: Safe to use with most products, including niacinamide, retinol, and peptides. Avoid overuse with multiple humectant-based products in dry climates to prevent pulling moisture from skin.

Irritation: Rare, but sensitive skin should start with 1-2 applications per week to assess tolerance. Consult a physician if irritation persists.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Use within 12 months of opening (PAO: 12 months).

General: Keep out of reach of children. Use only on unbroken skin. Avoid eye contact; rinse thoroughly if contact occurs.
