What is the difference between this product and the Hyaluronic acid moisturizer? Which one is better for wrinkles and firming the skin?

I couldn't tell you the difference, actually, but based on my experience with this product, I wouldn't buy any of their products in general. I doubt that they're much good at all.

Well I'm not a flight attendant so have not had to deal with drastic changes in weather or in altitude. However, I have done my "online homework" in studying facial moisturizers and from what I've learned and from my own experience, I'd say Hyaluronic Acid beats em all. Goggle Hada Labo Replenishing Hydrator. I've just started using this product and love it. Made by a Japanese Co and has been extremely popular in Japan for years. Products just made available in US in September 2013, and not at all expensive! I also use this Vit C serum and have for years...highly recommend it.

Don't understand the question? Hyaluronic Acid holds ten times it's weight in moisture. Squalane is a natural oil closest in composition to natural skin oil.Hope that answers the question. I use both together.

MM, I'm not an expert on this at all, but from what I understand, one is mostly hyaluronic acid, the other is mostly vitamin c. I simply chose the vitamin c, and the one with more reviews! They have amazing customer service, though, I am sure you could hit them up and they'd happily share- and I'd love to hear the answer! :)

I'm guessing the Hyaluronic Acid Night crme is the only one with higher levels of the acid. That's the ingredient I was looking for when I purchased this. It says night crme, but use it anytime. When I feel really dry, I put a nice layer on. When I need just a little moisture, I put a thin layer on. As others have said-you must rub it all the way in when using a lot or you will get a white residue. During the day, I use it as an eye cream because it is so good at holding moisture. I'm on my third jar so it is a product I come back to.

I have used both. Was not completely satisfied with the Perricone product. I am 60+ and looking for a super-hydrating moisturizer. I started using Xfacio a few weeks ago and I am pleasantly surprised. The ingredients are all good and it does a good job of hydrating my skin. I haven't noticed any wrinkle reduction yet, but I didn't get wrinkles overnight ether. My skin's texture has improved and I will order this product again!

I was advised to use 1.5 for wrinkles. I have been using that for 2 months, followed by Hyaluronic acid and am very pleased with the results. My wrinkles were DEEP and they have now soften and have become shallow. This is not a fast process, but I can see that I am headed in the right direction.

I believe it's only hyaluronic acid. I have been using it for months, it is amazing.

So far all products I have bought from Watts have not broken me out and I have sensitive skin and was using products from dermatologists and plastic surgeons offices for many years, now I'm happy with my Watts products that I use in combination with the Obagi line. From Watts I use the 100% hyaluronic acid solution with copper, Watts Signature with kojic, salicylic and glycolic acid and the one your asking about for about 6 months with good results.

I agree, not a wrinkle filler, but Hyaluronic acid attracts water. At young ages the human body is very rich with hyaluronic acid, the reason young people have firm, well-hydrated skin that heals promptly; however, its quantity deteriorate dramatically with age, which make skin susceptible to wrinkles, dehydration, and infection. Due to this fact a lot of cosmeceutical companies have introduced it into their products. The presence of hyaluronic acid in epithelial tissue has been shown to promote keratinocyte proliferation and increase the presence of retinoic acid, causing skin hydration. Hyaluronic acid's interaction with CD44 drives collagen synthesis and normal skin function. Present in the extracellular matrix of basal keratinocytes, hyaluronic acid is critical to the structural integrity of the dermal collagen matrix. These benefits make hyaluronic acid a very effective topical humectant; however, results may only be sustained as part of an ongoing treatment program.

Definitely a moisturizer. Use it in lotion, primer, or cconditiner. It's great for hydration and rejuvenation

Yes, this is a clear serum, you will need a moisturizer... My regime is #1 Hyaluronic Acid(HA) peptide serum. #2 Watts Retinol2.5% Max" w/green tea, this one is in a light lotion ( Retinol can be drying). # 3 is my moisturizer it is from Swanson Vitamins "Wrinkle Cream w/ DMAE & CoQ10" ($8.99 2oz) ..would not skip any of these 3 steps. This is what works for my skin. I am 61 & people guess my age early 40's.. I have been on this specific skin regime @ 4 years & my friends that have known me for years, tell me I look younger than I did 10 years ago & keep asking if I haven't had "some work" done.. which I have not.. I also take a lot of vitamins, amino acids & enzymes daily.. for example: I take glucosamine, Hyaluronic Acid, A-C-E internaly. These same ingrediants are used in some of the best (& most expensive) anti-aging products... So I feel my skin is the result of what I have been doing both internaly & topicaly.. Now at my age, I am seeing my investment pay up!

I would say it (and a lot of other similar products) are at the "high" end of moisturizers. You can go cheaper by buying Hyaluronic Serum 100% pure which is around $9 - 20 (low end as good as high end). The babyface is 2%, the serum is 100%. There is also a youtube video on how to use. I started with babyface but have moved to serum. And finally, YES, it will plump your face (retains water = moisture). Use serum day and night after cleaning face/neck. Daytime put on Baby Sunscreen (mix them ) not adult - has no chemicals. Success to you, be patient.

It moisturizes dry skin, so yes, in a way it does de-wrinkle giving the impression of smoother skin. Firming, I'd say not.

I use a vitamin c serum combined with the hyaluronic acid and let it soak into my skin, then follow up with a mild moisturizer and add a few drops of squalene( which I also get from this site, it's a wonderful and natural product), it does feel a little greasy at first, but the squalene will soak into your skin and give it great added moisture :)

I've tried both products (actually tried almost all the Acure products). If you want moisture I would recommend this serum, but it's not something to wear during the day as your face will appear quite shiny & you couldn't put makeup on over it. It is SUPER hydrating & amazing so I highly recommend it. Maybe use the serum at night and the wrinkle complex during the day under makeup.
