# Hyaluronic acid and citric acid

The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Saudi Arabia.

Depends on the strength

Use [citric acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/citric-acid) first and [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) after ten to fifteen minutes, because strong acids can degrade hyaluronic acid. Citric acid can lower skin tolerance and disrupt the hyaluronic acid film, leading to irritation. The shopper can use a milder acid strength or wait longer between applying the two products.

## Questions and answers

### Can you use hyaluronic acid and citric acid together?

Yes, you can use [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid) and [citric acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/citric-acid) together depending on the strength, and products like Thayers Hydrating Milky Toner combine them. Applying a hydrating [serum](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/serum) after exfoliation helps replenish moisture and improve skin tolerance when using acids.

### Which goes first, hyaluronic acid or citric acid?

Citric acid goes first, followed by hyaluronic acid after ten to fifteen minutes. This helps prevent irritation because strong acids may temporarily disrupt the barrier while hyaluronic acid restores moisture.

### Are hyaluronic acid and citric acid good for sensitive skin?

Combining hyaluronic acid and citric acid depends on the strength, and products like Thayers Hydrating Milky Toner, Neutrogena Hydro Boost Micellar [Water](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/water), Heritage Store [Rosewater](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/rose) Toner, Neora Advanced SIG-1273 Concentrated Serum, and Senallis Hyaluronic Acid Serum contain both ingredients. While citric acid is an AHA that pairs well with humectants, stronger acids may require separation from hyaluronic acid to prevent irritation on sensitive skin.
