Chan Eil Whiskers
Fumbling about.
I've been using this stuff since late October, long enough to feel like I can recommend hyaluronic acid without reservation.
What is it? How did I come across it? How is it used? What does it do?
I was told about it by Frank. Apparently it's a component of many high end skin care products. I'm not sure what it does exactly or what it's marketed for (other than what you can read on the packaging in the photo), but I'm sure it makes my skin feel a whole lot better, a lot less dry, and, well, healthier.
I apply a couple of globs or large drops to my still damp but not wet partially air dried post shave skin and rub it about on my face and neck. The stuff is a gel. It's very slick and easily spreads everywhere quick as a wink. It very soon sinks into my skin and disappears.
Usually a splash is applied a few minutes later post shave.
If my skin feels "overdone" or dry or irritated I might use it again later in the day or at bedtime, usually either first washing my face with soap and water or at least rinsing it so my skin is damp. Not wet, just damp, although it might be fine on still wet skin. I'm just doing what Frank suggested.
It comes in this much larger refill or dispenser size. However, the little bottle in the top photo lasted me from late October until early March, so that's more than four months. I used it at least once every day over that time. I did experiment with how much of the product to use. I tried very small amounts. I tried larger amounts. It's pretty easy to figure out how much to use as long as you are sorta going in the direction of less is enough.
My skin feels significantly better and looks better too using this magic elixir.
I've mentioned it in various threads but it deserves its own thread.
If there's a downside I haven't encountered it.
Happy shaves,
Jim
