Frequently asked questions
Can I use Hyaluronic Acid and Sulfur together?
Yes, it is safe. There is no known chemical conflict between Hyaluronic Acid and Sulfur, and neither makes the other less effective.
Which goes first, Hyaluronic Acid or Sulfur?
Apply Hyaluronic Acid first, then Sulfur. The general rule is thinnest to thickest texture, and lowest pH first.
Should I use Hyaluronic Acid in the morning or at night?
Hyaluronic Acid: works morning or night. Apply on slightly damp skin and seal with a moisturiser. In very dry air, skipping the seal can leave skin tighter.
Should I use Sulfur in the morning or at night?
Sulfur: works morning or night. Use as a spot treatment, a clay mask or a short-contact wash. It can be drying, so moisturise afterwards.
Is Hyaluronic Acid with Sulfur safe during pregnancy?
Neither is a known risk in normal cosmetic amounts, but guidance varies for Sulfur. Check with your doctor.
