FAQ
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
A powerful molecule known to hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a natural key component already present in our bodies. It effectively binds water to cells and is responsible for the elasticity and resiliency of the skin. Do not let the word “acid” alarm you. HA is not harsh and does not strip skin like other acids. Instead, it acts as a humectant to draw in and seal moisture to skin. Such properties make HA effective in keeping skin hydrated, plump, and supple.
Why do you include alcohol as a preservative in the Hyaluronic Acid Serum?
Alcohol is a multi-purpose preservative that is considered safe in small percentages. It serves as a natural emulsifier, preservative, and carrier, helping ingredients penetrate the skin effectively. Alcohol is not drying to the skin when part of a carefully formulated composition. Our Hyaluronic Acid Serum contains a minimal 0.5% of the total formula. It is not only a preferred substitute over harsh parabens and formaldehyde releasing preservatives, but it also works as a delivery agent for the HA to deeply hydrate skin.
Are your products tested on Animals?
No, we love animals and do not participate or endorse any animal testing.
Are your products Vegan?
Yes, our products are vegan. They do not contain any animal or animal by-products.
Can I use your products with a Micro-needle system?
Yes, our products work well when paired with microneedling. We have received many customer comments regarding the added benefits and effectiveness.
I am pregnant/nursing; what is the best skincare regimen for me?
For the best results, we strongly recommend you discuss safe skincare options for you and your baby with your medical professional.
I have sensitive skin. Are your products safe to use?
Yes, our products are safe for those with sensitive skin. Our formulas have been created with sensitivity in mind, using gentle and soothing active ingredients. Use should be restricted to nightly or every other night to avoid over exposure.
Always speak with your doctor if you have concerns. You can also conduct a skin patch test (place product behind your ear, or at the crook of your elbow, and cover with a small bandage. Wait 24 hours, and if no irritation occurs, then the product should not affect your skin).
In what order should I be applying my skincare products?
1. Cleanse
2. Exfoliate (when needed)
3. Tone
4. Serum
5. Moisturize (Use products with SPF protection during the day)
