Questions and answers

Which is better for dry, sensitive skin?
The Hyaltoin Flooding Serum. It is unscented and built around ectoin, ceramide and hyaluronic acid for barrier support. The Vitamin Illuminating Serum is aimed at tone, not dryness.
Which one fades dark spots?
The Vitamin Illuminating Serum. It has 4% niacinamide and 2% arbutin, both used for uneven tone and dark spots. The Hyaltoin serum has no brightening actives.
Can I use both together?
Yes. Apply the Hyaltoin serum first for hydration, then the Vitamin Illuminating Serum, and introduce the brightening one slowly if your skin is reactive.
Which is better under the eyes?
The Hyaltoin Flooding Serum, which lists under-eye use and is fragrance-free and lightweight. The Vitamin serum is not positioned for the eye area.
Is the Vitamin Illuminating Serum worth it over the hydrating one?
Only if brightening is your goal. If your skin is dry or reactive, the Hyaltoin serum is the safer first buy. Check current store prices on this page before deciding.
Are either tested on animals or vegan?
Neither listing states a cruelty-free or vegan claim. Ask the brand directly if that matters to you.
