Using a 2 fluid oz bottle, add one Oz of distilled water, pour 1 teaspoon of the Hyaluronic Acid powder on top of the cold water (never use warm or hot water), seal the lid, and shake vigorously for a few seconds. Leave in the refrigerator (not freezer!) for 12 to 24 hours. The Hyaluronic Acid will have dissolved completely into the water and the viscosity of the resulting liquid will be somewhat similar to honey or synthetic maple syrup, however it should still pour out easily. [Add benzylalcohol-DHA to keep sterile] For Vitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate) use rosehip oil to dissolve the Vitamin C.
