Reddit mentions of Timeless Skin Care Hyaluronic Acid Serum 2 oz

It's approximately 50% Witch Hazel, 25% Hyaluronic Acid (1% serum), 20% Glycerin, & the remaining 5% is a dropper full of Argan Oil & 2-3 drops of Tea Tree Oil. I stick it in a little dark blue glass bottle & give it a shake before use. The percentages work well for me, but you can change it up to suit your skin. The more Glycerin you add, the more sticky it gets, so keep that in mind. Also, keep the Tea Tree oil to a bare minimum, too much it it can definitely irritate your skin. You can try adding other stuff, but this combo work well for me; hydrating & a bit anti-inflammatory. All the ingredients are finished products that can be used on their own as well.

OK, you asked for it! I used to break out a lot. Not cystic, thank god, but still... zits.. zits... everywhere... Thanks to all this effort you'd never know I make all this effort ;P

Both anti-aging and anti-acne

• Retin-A - every night before bed. Can't recommend highly enough.
  
• Salicylic and/or glycolic acid peels - I used to do these once or twice a week, but with the TCA peels I've been doing more recently I've been kind of slacking. They're great, though. I might start doing these religiously again since I switched to a BCP that isn't as amazing for my skin as Yasmin/Ocella was.
  
• TCA peels - Monthly when I can, otherwise every few months. I probably wouldn't have started doing these if I hadn't gotten an Obagi peel (TCA is the active in this peel) first. The results are very noticeable (esp on freckles/photoaging), but cumulative - you have to do a series. So I decided to DIY it. Just be aware that when you're peeling it's pretty scary looking, so schedule accordingly. And if you DIY, follow the directions to the letter and START AT A LOW % (8% or 12.5%), and if then bump it up after you're confident you're not gonna melt your face off. I'm at 18% and am not going any stronger - that's PLENTY.
  
• Good diet, regular low impact workouts, plenty of water, and multivitamins and mineral supplements. This stuff wouldn't keep my skin looking good without all the other stuff, but it absolutely makes a difference.
  
  Anti-acne only
  
  
• Clindamycin foam - every morning. As with acne anything, YMMV, but this stuff is what got me out of tanning for good. Totally cleared up the chestne that nothing else had totally worked for (though the UV did tamp it down quite a bit).
  
• BCPs - Yasmin/Ocella was amazing for years but eventually the headaches were too much :( Now I'm on Yaz and it's OK... not as good as Yasmin, but better than Ortho was.
  
• Benzoyl peroxide topicals - while on the Yasmin I stopped needing this, but now I'm back to using it daily to every other day on my face.
  
  Anti-aging only
  
  
• Botox - Those inch-deep crevasses in my mom's mug that make her look like she's perma-scowling at everyone in the universe? (I mean she is, but, yeah.) Sorry genetics, you done been thwarted! :D
  
• Spot lasering on angiomas/little capillaries, etc - whenever I notice them, maybe every couple years. (NOT IPL Photofacial - did it once, crazy painful, the only noticeable result was a lighter wallet.)
  
  Honorable Mention
  
  
• Hyaluronic Acid Serum - I bought this stuff before thoroughly researching it, bc it was a main ingredient in a $$$ serum I bought in a moment of weakened mental faculties. As an anti-aging topical, it's apparently marketing bs-driven snake oil. But it's fantastic as a moisturizer! My face looks dewy and glowy when I use it. 2-3 drops cover my whole face & neck, to put $15 for the bottle in perspective.

Would something like this do?

I've never asked for samples from Sephora. It's kind of socially awkward for me - but, do I just say something like, "I've heard about this face cream, is there a sample I could take home with me?"

A lot of the CeraVe lotions/creams have hyaluronic acid, but they might be thicker than you like. You can also get a hyaluronic acid serum and mix it into whatever lotion you like. http://www.amazon.com/Original-Hyaluronic-Acid-Serum-100%25/dp/B003MJ7Z0O/ref=sr_1_10_s_it?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1463545348&sr=1-10&keywords=hyaluronic+acid

I sort of threw caution to the wind and just slathered it on my face starting two days ago, so there's a possibility that I could still break put, but I've always tolerated it well in moisturizers, so I'm not too worried. This is the ONLY time I've not patch tested or very slowly worked something into my routine (which now consists of three things).

I got this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003MJ7Z0O/ref=mp_s_a_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1525836582&sr=8-3&keywords=timeless+hyaluronic+acid&dpPl=1&dpID=41EcwCmBtwL&ref=plSrch

Ugh I hope that link looks better when I submit this comment than it does now...

Edit-- no. No it still looks like garbage. Sorry!

Literally just ordered the squalene oil! Good to know where to add it into my skin care routine now. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003MJG19K/ref=mp_s_a_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1510074300&sr=8-3&keywords=squalane+oil

What form of hyaluronic acid should I use? Is a serum by Timeless good? https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003MJ7Z0O/ref=pd_aw_sim_194_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=E4FV33DBH9EGPBNBKX4D&dpPl=1&dpID=41EcwCmBtwL

I've tried using CeraVe in the tub in the morning, but for me it pills when used with sunscreen and makeup. A good addition for you might be a hyaluronic acid serum to use after washing and before moisturizing.

I'm sure you could just use Hyaluronic Acid and Argan Oil to get the same results. Both which you could easily purchase for fairly cheap off of Amazon (~$15 USD).

Just a few easy tips.

1. Stop touching your face! Especially if you have nails. Because if you scratch, pick,itch,rub of any of the like you're going to leave a small build up of dead, inflamed, infected, dirty skin under the nail and continue to spread those icky skin cells wherever you decide to scratch next.
   
   
2. No more big name acne fighters..They're mostly just alcohol or similar and only serve to inflame and irritate your skin.
   
   
3. Exfoliating your face is stoooopid! Works fine for the rest of your body..But not your face..."Hey, lets rub sandpaper on our face!"...Yea, not cool..
   
   
4. Oil cleansing works! Learn as much as you can about it!
   
   The whole idea is to keep things simple. Promote healthy skin, not scrub, rip, tear, bombard with chemicals and left wondering why our face hates us?
   And clean hands and fingers are a "HUGE" deal. People don't realize just how often they touch they're faces every day with filthy fingers and nails. Use a toothpick or something if you have an itch.
   
   As for oils..Castor oil is my go to cleanser..Wet down face with hot water, massage castor oil in for a couple minutes, let it sit for another couple minutes, use clean washcloth and as hot of water you can stand without burning yourself..Soak cloth, place on face and MASSAGE the excess oil off, do NOT scrub. keep rag wet and hot and repeat until excess oil has been melted or absorbed. Then pat dry with clean towel and let dry..Buy some Hyaluronic acid and use it as a moisturizer. And yes, castor oil takes off makeup like a champ.......Remember, nurture don't destroy your skin!

The ones that I buy come in a little bottle with a dropper so I just drop a few drops in my hands and rub it into my face- it soaks in pretty fast. Depending on which one you use, it may just feel like rubbing water on your skin or an actual serum. Or you can just add the drops to your moisturizer and mix it in your hand before applying to your face. You can look on amazon for moisturizers that already have added hyaluronic acid too!

This is the one I used to use: http://www.amazon.com/Original-Hyaluronic-Acid-Serum-100%25/dp/B003MJ7Z0O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1418061075&sr=8-2&keywords=hyralonic+acid

And this is the one I'm using now: http://www.amazon.com/Vitamin-Serum-Face-20%25-Hyaluronic/dp/B00G2TQNZ4/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1418061132&sr=8-11&keywords=hyralonic+acid

EDIT: My boyfriend has the same regime as you- he uses BP and Clindamycin daily every night/morning. He only uses hyaluronic acid to moisturize his face (because he has naturally oily skin- he doesn't want to put moisturizer on his face)- seems to be working just fine for him.

This one?

EDIT: Will it also resurface my face? I just noticed my face is bumpy and is pretty uneven compared to my summer-fall face.

My goals have changed and I think I need to make some significant changes to my routine. I am now focused mainly on:

1. Reducing hyperpigmentation. I have freckles which I love, but I definitely don't love my melasma and sun spots.
   
   
2. Wrinkle prevention. I get Botox so I don't have many wrinkles, just some light crepiness.
   
   
3. Preventing collagen loss in my lips.
   
   Here is my current routine. There are a few products that I love, but quite a few that I feel really "meh" about and could improve. I'm looking for suggestions on how to amp up my routine. I prefer a shorter daytime routine, and more inexpensive products when I can, but I'm willing to splurge for holy grails!
   
   AM
   
   
4. Timeless Hyaluronic Acid. This feels great on my skin, but because of how cheap it is I worry that maybe it's not actually hyaluronic acid...
   
   
5. Say Yes to Grapefruit Under Eye Creme - LOVE. Instant brightness. Surprisingly effective for a drugstore brand.
   
   
6. Mason Natural Collagen Creme - LOVE
   
   
7. Sunscreen. I alternate between Biore Watery Essence and Innisfree Perfect. I feel they are both a little weak for me. I had better results (but so much white cast) from Neutrogena SPF 70+
   
   PM
   
   
8. Cleanse with Dermalogica Pepto-Glyco Cleanser. LOVE. Like a mini chemical peel every day. I sometimes use my husband's Cerave if my skin is feeling dirty or sensitive. Or I just use a Neutrogena makeup remover wipe when lazy...
   
   
9. Biologique Recherche P50. - LOVE
   
   
10. Hyaluronic Acid Serum (same as AM)
    
    
11. Naturalico Vitamin C 20% Serum
    
    
12. Instanatural Niacinamide Serum w/ Avocado Oil. I'm wondering if the avocado oil is too occlusive and messing up my later steps.
    
    
13. Innisfree White Tone Up Eye Serum - New, but loving so far.
    
    
14. Good N Natural Retinol Cream. - Really like, but again, I wonder how good it can be with how inexpensive it is.
    
    
15. Alternate between mixing Finacea into my retinol, and Retin-A into my retinol.
    
    
16. Laneige Lip Mask - LOVE.
    
    
17. Seal it all with Argan Oil. - LOVE
    
    MASKS and GIMMICKY PRODUCTS
    
    Innisfree Acai Sheet Mask (love), Donkey Milk Aqua, TonyMoly Banana Sleep Mask (love), 2 Minute Peel (love), Aztec Clay Masque, Glycolic Acid Peel (I suck at doing this and end up giving myself a small chemical burn almost every time), EPL facial (HATE!), mirconeedling
    
    Mainly I need help finding a better, super strong sunscreen, upping my serum game, and finding some additional masks and peels that can help with hyperpigmentation. Also does anyone have any strategies or products for increasing collagen production in your lips?!
