I purchased DMAE from this company for a DIY skin care project and was able to choose another product of my choice from their line for review purposes. I had no idea that I would receive this perk when I made my purchase, but was quite pleased, as you can imagine. HA was on Want List, so I chose it. In all honesty, I was so pleased with the quality of the DMAE that I would gladly have paid for this purchase.I wanted to make a serum to use use both night and day. I did my due diligence and researched Google, YouTube and Pinterest before choosing a recipe. My first sample batch was a fail, because I either did not add enough water (I chose Orange Blossom to tszuj it up a bit) or added too much product. The batch turned out to be more of a thick gel, rather than a serum. I tried applying it in that form and it was not bad at first. However, it started to sort of 'roll up' in some areas. It was evident that the product was too thick. No problem. I kept adding one tablespoon of the Orange Blossom water and placing it in the fridge for 20 minutes or so and stirring. The final perfect recipe for me is 4 tablespoons of COLD water and 1/4 teaspoon of HA powder. Since I planned to keep it in the fridge to extend the life of the product anyway, I did so. In the morning I had an absolute perfect serum. On the upside, my original failed batch proved to me that this truly was a miracle hydration product that would attract moisture to my skin.Application - I purchased a very inexpensive pump container (photo below). One pump dispenses the exact amount of product that I need. After washing my face and using toner, I apply one pump to my face. It is immediately absorbed and leaves zero residue of any sort. You would be fine to wear this alone on a no makeup day and it would not be detected. There is no smell and the product itself is totally clear.Shelf Life - I do not add preservatives to my DIY products, as that would defeat part of the purpose of making my own. I will use vitamin E as a natural preservative to many products, but did not want to add it it to this one. I already use it in my primer and facial setting and refresher sprays. I don't want to look like an oil slick by day's end. This recipe made a small batch, but I still think this will be too much product for two week's use. I may cut the recipe in half next time.Packaging - The packaging is well sealed and its quality assures me that the product itself is of high quality and has not been exposed in packing or shipping. It is clearly labels with supplement facts, warnings, measurements, ingredients, expiration and manufactured dates, storage suggestion and lot number in case of a recall.I really can't think of anything more that I could require or want from a product. This 10 gram (0.35 ounce) packet will last me a very long time. The expiration date is a year away. I may have to incorporate it into my eye creams in order to not waste any due to the expiration date. That is a good problem to have. Who does not want more moisture in their eye area. This is a definite annual repeat purchase.The photo below is untouched and makeup free after a week of twice daily use. As a caveat, I am 57. This should be considered before making any snap judgements about whether my skin looks radiant or healthy in general.UPDATE - I was so pleased with the results of my skin that I started using this in conjunction with DMAE in my under eye and on the outer corners, with the intent of bringing additional moisture to this area. The third photo below is after three weeks of using this product twice a day.May 12, 2017I am down to my last small batch and am online to purchase my first refill, as I tried going three days without it and was displeased. My 5 star rating remains true.Recipe and Tip: Always use very cold water to make (I use refrigerated distilled water that I have previously added a couple of drops of Esential Orange Oil to). A wide mouth flatter container is preferred, ergo an empty eye cream jar. I say this because I find the product mixes much easier if you evenly sprinkle the powder over the entire surface of the cold water. Also, do NOT stir until the product has had a chance to mix on its own in the fridge. I leave mine in the fridge over night and continue to store it in this way. I found stirring when initially mixed the two ingredients together caused the product to get lumpy on some areas. I used a chop stick to stir/beat the lumps out. It is a royal pain, but a great arm work out. **Add water to container first.2 tablespoons of COLD water + 1/4 teaspoon of H/A powder. You can double for more product, but I prefer smaller batches to maintain freshness and efficacy. Note, I also add my Vitamin C serum and a couple drops of Rosehip oil to a small amount of this mixture into the palm of my hand, mix with my finger and then apply. If you are using alone, you may prefer more or less water. This works perfect for me and does not affect my makeup application, including foundation. If it sort of rolls up on your skin, you need to add more water and place in the fridge for a bit before re-stirring. **Photo #4 was taken May 21, 2017, after 13 months of daily night time use.

This will be used for multiple self help formulations the main 2 being: skin lotion to repair collagen damage, a small amount taken internally for collagen repair

Why was I ever spending money buying other people's hyaluronic acid serums when all I needed was this power & some distilled water? For the price, this can't be beat. I now make enough serum to use on not just my face & neck, but my chest, my arms, my ass. I'm slathering myself head to toe with total abandon & loving the results!The powder mixed well, no clumps or difficulty. The value for the quantity can not be beat! I just learned you can take this internally too, so that's the next thing I have to try. All in all, possibly the best, inexpensive "beauty upgrade" I've made this year.

Literal perfection. No issues with it. I use it to make skin care so I don't taste it at all. Very effective. Does take a bit to mix but works perfect. They all seem kind of expensive to me but they're well worth the price.

The inside package was open and when I opened the outside package it went all over me like a cloud. The manufacturer contacting me within 12 hours and told me to contact Amazon and I did and the immediately refunded me for the product. I had just enough to make a small jar of it and have been putting it on my skin not taking it intentionally which you can do but I can’t with medical conditions so far I like the product, I had no reaction to it and my skin is starting to feel less dry and itch. Anyways I’ll probably be buying some more. Oh and it does not dissolve easily. I put mine in a ball jar and shook it pretty hard and there were still clumps in it. But I just let it sit for a couple of hours and it worked it self out.

Size does matter in your hyaluronic acid supplements!!First off they do not say what the molecular weight of this product is in the description. Reputable dealers should always note this so you can be an informed consumer and make purchases that suit your needs. High molecular weight is not good for topical or internal applications in the same way that the high molecular weight is. They clearly do not list a use as external or provide recipes for making face serums. When you verify the reviews on fakespot you can see that they get a score of F as many people both write only positive reviews for free product and others write in multiple great reviews for this company only!When you try to find weight in the answers section of this product it states: "Purity for the Hyaluronic acid is 97.60% The molecular weight will vary between 0.8 - 1.5 dK. This is LOW molecular weight." It is actually is more important to have high molecular weight for joint pain as well!! Doctors use high molecular weight to inject for joint pain and research will show you this is true. This is supremely important if you are buying this supplement to know what he molecular weight is!!! If I were you I would NOT buy it from this supplier unless they change their ways and start selling what actually works for people who want and/or need this supplement!Why does it matter you askThere is abundant experimental evidence from the human physiology and biochemistry literature to support the basic notion that LMW-HA is inflammatory, pro-fibrotic, and associated with adult scarring phenotypes rather than scar-free truly regenerative healing. HMW-HA is what you want in an any aesthetic procedure, wound healing, joint use, or just for topical use. The type of collagen produced to regenerate skin is affected by the relative presence of HMW vs LMW HA. A fine reticular pattern is produced in the non-inflammatory environment of HMS-HA, whereas a more disorganized pattern is seen when HA fragments abound. This suggests that LMW-HA in melanoma might promote tumor invasiveness by inducing MMP- and cytokine-expression. SO please do your homework unlike me who did it AFTER I purchased and regretted it!
