If you are using this as a facial rejuvenation serum, you will find several recipes on the internet. I use one-half teaspoon of each in a 2 oz. dropper bottle. Mix with COLD water, and shake after each addition. You will most likely have clumps - which will dissolve into a gel over a period of 24 hours. Keep mixture refrigerated. Use ~ 8-10 drops twice a day (allow to fully absorb before applying any moisturizer), and don't expect miracles to counteract "God's cruel joke". The pictures you see of remarkable transformations of facial wrinkling involve INJECTIONS of hyaluronate. Wait a month before taking stock. And I might add - Bulk Supplements products are so far quite a deal! Peace. ejm If you are using this as a facial rejuvenation serum, you will find several recipes on the internet.

As an addendum to my recent answer : a teaspoon is approximately 5 milliliters, therefore a half teaspoon would be approximately 2.5 milliliters. But surely you know what a teaspoon is! What do you stir your hot beverages with? ejm

One thing to keep in mind is that vitamin C become ineffective within a short time after it is mixed with water. A vitamin C skincare product should not include water, unless it in its entirety is being used immediately after water is added. If you make 2 ounces of product with water and vitamin C included, and then just use a dab, what is left the 2 ounces will within minutes become ineffective as to its vitamin C content.

1/4 tsp of vit C, a 1/2 tsp glycerin and 1/2 tsp of water is what I use and have read on-line. I love it! I do see a difference in my skin texture. Good luck

Organic herbal infusion, organic aloe barbadensis leaf juice (aloe vera), hyaluronic acid, hamamelis virgiana (witch hazel), , (MSM), organic simmondsia chinensis (JoJoba oil), carbomer 2s-2-amino-5-guanidinopentanonic acid, wildcrafted camellia sinensis (green tea), pelagonlium graveolens (geranium essential oil), sodium ascorbyl phosphate (vitamin c), ethylhexyl glycerin, phenoxyethanol ~ I had to get my son's girlfriend to write this down as the writing was too small for me to see. I do really like this product but after reading the "methane" & "ethanol" 's.. I may have to look a few of these ingredients up.. Anyway, I hope this helps.

I added my DMAE to lotion to make my cream/serum...I used a thick creamy lotion and a few drop of vegtable glycerin and mixed it with a hand held blender for 10 minutes. Keep in mind that the Dmae will change the Texture of whAtever base you use to make your cream/serum and make it watery. Please use a thick cream and mix well and you have a granule free cream.

here's what i did, i mixed this into a 1 oz bottle with a dropper using a small funnel: 3/8 tsp powdered C with 4 tsp distilled water, then add 1 tsp glycerine for a more textured feel. you can experiment with how much water vs glycerine (available on amazon). i use that morning and night after cleansing/toning before moisturizing. add a tiny bit more C every time you make a new batch as your skin adapts, but go slowly as too much can burn it.

First of all, I'm not sure how you are going to dissolve the "C" in your moisturizer. The recipe I follow calls for 1/2 tsp of C crystals and 2 Tbl of vegetable glycerin and 1/2 tsp of distilled water. Two Tbl is probably more than you would use at one time on your face. Not really sure how you would estimate cutting down the amount of C or if that is even advisable.

I wish my eyes were as good as they used to be but there are a lot of ingredients listed. Some I could see were water, glycerin, lactic acid and cucumber. Are you looking for a specific ingredient? This serum makes my skin feel soft and I have used it for 2 years.

The ingredients listed are: Hyaluronic Acid, Distilled Water, Potassium Sorbate, Citric Acid. The percentages are not mentioned but "hyaluronic acid" is listed first. The rest of the ingredients are probably what is needed to make a "Serum".

Dear Zoe, Firstly thank you for being a fan of our Vitamin C serum. I will try to answer your question in the space provided. The Vitamin C serum uses L-Ascorbic acid , the only form of Vitamin C with exfoliation properties. It is an acidic form of vitamin C. This is important for rejuvenation of the skin to take place and for collagen synthesis to occur. It also has excellent antioxidants which prevent UV damage. When dealing with aging skin one needs COMPLETE collagen synthesis to occur. This is why we developed the Super C serum together with Dr Sivak, our scientist. As she explained to us, Vitamin C is an excellent ingredient but if one wants to change the physiology of the skin to that of a younger one, it is not enough, other essential ingredients are needed. The Super C has these other ingredients such as Epidermal Growth Factor( for cell proliferation), Marine Kelp ( helps to heal skin and create collagen),Hydrolyzed Collagen ( active peptides) and many more. The Vitamin C used in this formula is MAP, which is non acidic and therefore great for sensitive skin, but does not have exfoliation properties. Super C is also excellent for damaged and scarred skin as it has many healing properties. Using both serums together, you will have all the ingredients necessary to completely rejuvenate your skin. Following this regime we recommend using the Super C twice a day and then the Vitamin c once a day, instead of the SuperC every third day. I hope this has helped you. All the best Alessandra Poletti

It just says Niacinamide serum with Hydrating Hyaluronic acid. Works really well.

The serums are formulated to work together. Each has a higher concentration of the main ingrediant. I use the vitiamin C first and then the Hyaluronic acid, followed by a mositurizer.

I had the same question and I got the answer from OZ Naturals... here is what they said : Vitamin C serum protects skin cells from free radical damage, helps with cell turnover, gives skin better tone, helps with discoloration of skin, and gives a brighter appearance to the skin. HA serum is designed more for super hydration, aids in collagen production, gives the skin a more supple appearance, and helps to smooth out fine lines. The HA serum is a thicker consistency, while the vitamin c serum is of a thinner consistency...while both have maximum potency benefits. Both products do work well together, but if you can only choose one, choose the product that your skin care needs would best benefit from. Even though there are a few ingredients that are similar, the two main ingredients of each of those serums do not contain the same amounts. For example, the vitamin c serum is a 20% strength of vitamin c, comprising more than 50% of the entire formula of ingredients. The HA serum also contains 20% strength vitamin c, but only makes up 10% of the total ingredients (this is because this serum is primarily made of HA; it's main benefits are not those of a vitamin c serum.) The same goes for the vitamin c serum...it's main intent is to give you the benefits of a vitamin c serum, therefore, only a small percentage of HA is added for moisture. I hope you have the information you need to make your choice. We hope you enjoy our products. Best Regards, Angela, CE

Make your own Hyaluronic acid serum * Pour 1/2 ounce of distilled water in a small glass container, preferably the one you will use to dispense your serum. A 1/2 ounce or 1-ounce glass pump bottle is ideal. * Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of hyaluronic acid powder into the water. (NOTE: the powder and water will not incorporate right away). * Cover and leave the mixture to set for 4-8 hours, overnight if possible, in a cool, dry place. * After setting up, the mixture should become a gel. * Once the mixture is set, add preservative (Germaben or your choice, as long as it's safe for water-based cosmetic mixtures) and mix well. * Use this serum twice daily by spreading a small amount (dime size or smaller) over your face and neck, after you cleanse and before you moisturize. This recipe probably will last for a couple of weeks.

Sorry about last post and my recommendation for Keratase, as it does have a small amount of dimethiconol, which is a version ofdimethicone. Again, good luck with your search!

Water, L-Ascorbic acid (vitamin C), Propylene Glycol, Ethox-ydiglycol, Zinc Sulfate, Glycerol, Triethanolamine, Ferulic Acid, D-Panthenol, Phenoxyethanol, Tetrasodium Edetate, Algae extract, Pullulan, Hyaluronic Acid. Hmmm... Once the winter nights get really long, I may google some of that :)
