Hyaluronic acid and sandalwood oil
Keep them apart
Use them at different times of day, applying hyaluronic acid first for moisture and sandalwood oil later, because strong oils can irritate hydrated skin. Hyaluronic acid draws deep moisture into the skin, which can make it absorb the strong sandalwood oil too fast and cause irritation. The shopper can use a lower oil concentration or put more time between the two products.
