Frequency: Once or twice daily for optimal results.

Timing: Morning application: Apply after cleansing and after your SkinCeuticals vitamin C antioxidant serum, before applying SkinCeuticals sunscreen. Evening application: Apply after cleansing. If using with a retinol product at night, apply H.A. Intensifier after retinol application.

Layering: This serum integrates seamlessly into your existing skincare routine. Follow the principle of applying products from thinnest to thickest consistency. Compatible with SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic, Phloretin CF, P-TIOX, and retinol products.

Expert Tips: For enhanced absorption, apply to slightly damp skin after cleansing. The serum may be used as part of a home skincare regimen after dermal filler treatments; always consult with your physician for individualised at-home advice. Warm the product between your palms before application and massage into skin from the centre of the face outwards for a mini facial massage moment.

FAQ

Q: Can I use HA Intensifier Multi-Glycan if I've had dermal filler treatments?
A: Yes, this serum is physician-tested specifically to complement dermal filler treatments. It can be used as part of your home skincare regimen between injectable treatments to help maintain volume and hydration. The multi-glycan technology supports the longevity of filler results by enhancing your skin's natural plumping mechanisms. However, always consult with your aesthetic physician for individualised at-home advice following any injectable procedures.

Q: How does this formula differ from the original H.A. Intensifier?
A: The Multi-Glycan formula features 20% more Proxylane™, an innovative new post-biotic ferment extract (Lactobacillus/Soybean Ferment Extract), and enhanced bioavailability through three forms of hyaluronic acid including sodium acetylated hyaluronate. It delivers the same clinical efficacy as its predecessor but with a fresher, lighter texture and multi-dimensional correction that addresses not just hydration but also glycan synthesis for improved volume and contour definition.

Q: When will I see results, and how long do they last?
A: Clinical studies demonstrate immediate visible results upon application, with instant plumping and a 10% improvement in radiance. Hydration benefits are sustained for 24 hours. With consistent twice-daily use, progressive improvements in fine lines (24% reduction), smoothness, softness, and tone evenness become evident over 12 weeks. The serum's amplification of your skin's own hyaluronic acid levels by 30% represents a fundamental improvement in skin architecture, providing lasting benefits that continue to develop with ongoing use.

Q: Can I use this serum with vitamin C, retinol, or other active ingredients?
A: Absolutely. This serum is designed to integrate seamlessly into comprehensive skincare regimens. Our experts recommend layering it after vitamin C antioxidant serums in the morning (before sunscreen), and it may be applied after retinol products in the evening routine. It works synergistically with SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic, Phloretin CF, P-TIOX peptide serum, and retinol formulations to deliver comprehensive anti-ageing benefits without compromising efficacy or causing irritation.

Q: Is this suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?
A: Yes, the lightweight serum-gel texture is specifically formulated to be suitable for all skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin. Unlike heavy creams, it provides essential hydration without greasiness or pore-clogging. The formula is non-comedogenic, absorbs rapidly, and 95% of users in clinical studies reported no pilling on skin. The silicone-based texture creates a breathable barrier that allows skin to function naturally whilst delivering hydration and plumping benefits.

Q: Why does the serum have a purple colour?
A: The characteristic purple tint comes naturally from the botanical extracts in the formula - specifically the licorice root extract (dipotassium glycyrrhizate) and purple rice extract (Oryza Sativa Extract). These plant-derived ingredients not only provide antioxidant benefits and help preserve hyaluronic acid levels but also give the serum its distinctive appearance. The purple colour is a hallmark of the authentic formulation and does not stain the skin.

Q: How many drops should I use, and will one bottle last?
A: The recommended application is 4-6 drops twice daily. Each 30ml bottle contains approximately 600 drops, providing roughly 50-75 applications, which equates to 25-37 days of twice-daily use or 50-75 days if used once daily. For optimal results and value, our experts recommend consistent twice-daily application as demonstrated in clinical studies.
