How to apply

  • Use this soothing AM and PM routine every day to keep your normal skin calm. Always remember to apply SPF in the morning after your moisturizer.

  • Gently press a small amount of the moisturizer evenly across your face. Avoid rubbing to keep your sensitive skin happy and calm.
  • You can apply this gentle formula on dry or slightly damp skin for the best comfort. It works wonderfully on clean skin to soothe redness and irritation.
  • Do a patch test before your very first use to check your skin's reaction. Avoid getting the product directly into your eyes .

Questions and answers

How well does Advanced Clinicals Hyaluronic Serum work for sensitive skin?

Advanced Clinicals Hyaluronic Serum works moderately well for sensitive skin, as its hyaluronic acid, glycerin, aloe, and willow herb help hydrate the skin and calm redness without causing irritation. To fit this skin type even better, a product like this needs richer hydrating ingredients and a stronger focus on maintaining the skin barrier.

General Physiology and Biophysics, 2013

Which ingredients make this serum a good fit for sensitive skin?

Glycerin and hyaluronic acid help provide hydration, while aloe barbadensis leaf juice and epilobium angustifolium stem extract calm redness and irritation. To fit sensitive skin even better, a moisturizing treatment of this type needs rich hydrating ingredients and skin barrier supporters, alongside soothing agents and no allergens.

Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017General Physiology and Biophysics, 2013

What does Hyaluronic Acid do for sensitive skin?

Hyaluronic acid helps calm and hydrate sensitive skin while supporting the skin barrier to keep it soft and comfortable. Clinical studies show it improves surface moisture and reduces dryness, roughness, and redness without irritation.

Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2025Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2018

What does Glycerin do for sensitive skin?

Glycerin helps keep sensitive skin soft and deeply hydrated while supporting the skin barrier. It is unlikely to cause irritation and may protect against dryness and roughness.

The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008Acta Dermato-venereologica, 1999

Where does this serum go in a skincare routine for sensitive skin?

This serum goes in the evening routine after cleansing and toning, and before moisturizing. Putting treatments in the evening keeps things simple and adds safety around sun exposure.

Can I use this serum with retinol, and in what order?

You can use this serum with retinol by applying the serum first to hydrate and calm your skin, followed by your retinol product. This product offers moderate moisture, but sensitive skin often needs barrier-supporting ingredients like ceramides and soothing agents to prevent irritation when using strong active treatments.

How often should I use this serum?

This serum is safe to use in your evening routine, applying it after cleansing and toning before you moisturize. For sensitive skin like yours, this product works fine, though sensitive skin generally benefits most from gentle, fragrance-free hydration and soothing ingredients like ceramides or centella asiatica to keep the skin barrier strong and calm.

Can this serum clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for sensitive skin?

This serum is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on sensitive skin, as it features a safe formula without heavy, pore-clogging ingredients. However, a product for this skin works best when it keeps hydration balanced with soothing ingredients like hyaluronic acid and aloe vera, while avoiding added fragrance that can trigger irritation.

Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017

Can I use this serum around the eyes or on my body?

You can use this moisturizing treatment safely around your eyes and on your body, as it has a very safe profile for sensitive skin. To truly thrive, this delicate skin needs lightweight hydration from ingredients like hyaluronic acid and glycerin, alongside soothing plant extracts that help calm redness and irritation.

Polymers, 2023

Is this serum fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (limonene, geraniol, hexyl cinnamal, and linalool).
