Hyaluronic acid and cholesterol
Work well together
Apply the hyaluronic acid serum first, then follow with the moisturizer containing cholesterol to lock in deep hydration. Hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the skin while cholesterol helps seal it all in for a plump finish. You can keep using them together without changing anything.
