The Hyaluronic 'Sandwich'

9 replies

I've recently started using a Hyaluronic acid after seeing it mentioned a lot here. I'm not overwhelmed so far, although it's early days. I've heard of the Hyaluronic sandwich so thought I'd give it a go to see if it gives a greater impact. I already moisturiser after applying the acid but can anyone recommend a hydrating mist to apply before the acid? I hear it should be alcohol free for best results and 'pure, as is a proper rose water not just scented with rose. Also, I've started with the NIOD Hyaluronic as it contains 12 different Hyaluronics, including pure Hyaluronic acid rather than the sodium Hyaluronic that the cheaper products are made of. If i've not seem good results by the end of the bottle i'll try something else. Any recommendations for a product made of not just the cheap sodium stuff?? Thanks!

I use Hada Labo Premium which is a great affordable HA. I start with Pixi Rose Tonic on cleanser skin, then I'm currently using Badescu rosewater spritz. Apply this next, then the HA, then the rosewater spritz again. I wait for that to dry a bit then follow with my moisturiser.

I got a tip from here to use rosewater from the cooking aisle as a toner before hylaronic acid and moisturiser. It was £5 and makes my skin super soft.

I love Josh Rosebrook, Omorvicza Queen of Hungary, and Pixi Milky Mist. I mist-HA-mist after cleansing and before serums

Clinique moisture surge spray is really good and Superdrug B do a few hydrating sprays including a hyaluronic acid one.

I like essences even more - Superdrug B Essence is absolutely brilliant. I used to have extremely dry, flaky and sore skin and now it's completely healed and glowing.

Vichy mineral 89 is amazing

Great, thank you. Will give some of these a try.

Sorry if I am hijacking but are these sprays like a moisturiser?

Due to my circulation I can't get creams to absorb properly so lots just sort of stays sitting on the surface of my skin which obviously feels horrible! so this could be a perfect alternative.

Yes, they are a kind of moisturiser. Hope you find one that works!
