Frequently Asked Questions
Vitamin B5 gel serves several purposes for your skin. B5 is great at hydrating your skin by drawing moisture out of the air around you and absorbing it into your skin. Vitamin B5 will also help to restore the top layers of the skin to make it look fuller and plumper to reduce wrinkles and lines.
Vitamin B5 and hyaluronic acid are not the same ingredients, but both ingredients will moisturize your skin. Vitamin B5 draws moisture to your skin from the air around you, and then hyaluronic acid will retain that moisture in the skin.
Hydrating B5 Gelcan be used in either the morning or at night. Best practices recommend that users should apply products from thinnest to thickest. In the morning, Hydrating B5 Gel should be used after a vitamin C antioxidant serum and before sunscreen. Apply the serum in the evening after retinol.
While H.A. Intensifier and Hydrating B5 Gel both help hydrate the skin, they each do it differently. H.A. Intensifier increases the amount of hyaluronic acid in the skin, which improves its ability to absorb and retain water. While Hydrating B5 Gel also contains hyaluronic acid, its primary ingredient is vitamin B5, a natural moisturizer. Rather than capturing and retaining water, Hydrating B5 Gel provides moisture to the skin to condition dry patches and restore the skin’s barrier.
Use Hydrating B5 Gel before applying a moisturizer so the hyaluronic acid can more easily retain the water from your moisturizer and work synergistically with vitamin B5.
Hydrating B5 Gel does not clog pores. It is a great hyaluronic acid serum for acne-prone skin as it is lightweight, oil-free, and does not contain pore clogging ingredient.
