**Our Sodium hyaluronate is a combination of Macromolecular hyaluronic acid and Small molecule hyaluronic acid.
Small-weight hyaluronan molecules penetrate deeper into the skin’s structure,providing maximum below-the-surface hydration and in turn rehydrating skin cells over time.
Macromolecular hyaluronic molecules deliver immediate intensive hydration to the surface layers of the skin for an instant smoothing and firming effect.
***Retinol has the quality of converting into Vitamin A acid when applied to the skin. In theory, the best effect is achieved by using a pure Vitamin A acid, but it does have a number of side effects, such as severe skin irritation. Because of that, there are restrictions in using A-acid, and it must not be used in skincare products.
Several skin care products contains Retinol (which we use) or Retinol esters, which slowly convert to Vitamin A acid when it pentrates the skin.

Assessment of the study results
None of the 30 subjects showed skin alterations in the test area after
24 h, 48 h and 72 h following application of the epicutaneous test according to the
recommendations of Colipa, the DDG, the DGAKI and ISO 10993-23:2021 (section 8 and Annex E). The product was tolerated very well.
Hence, it can be concluded that, from a dermatological point of view, the tested product does not exhibit a high irritative potential and that the product, if used as intended, will not lead to undesirable skin reactions.
Use every other day for the first few weeks to accustom the eye to Vitamin A (retinol) and to avoid redness.
The eye cream is dabbed around the eye area, but not normally used on the eyelids, where the skin is very delicate.
Avoid getting too close to the tear ducts. When the skin has become accustomed to the eye cream, apply it every day, both morning and evening.
We recommend using a +15 SPF (Sun Protection Factor) cream, let your Retinol work for 2-3 minutes before applying SPF cream.
Retinol can cause skin irritation.
A tip to minimize redness is to apply Hyaluronic Acid Serum before and after applying retinol. These extra layers can mitigate the side effects.
