Hyaluronic acid capsules, tablets and liquid, marine collagen powders and capsules, and skin-care items such as soap, face wash, cream and lip balm. Supplements state their ingredient amounts per capsule or per daily serving, for example 120 mg of hyaluronic acid per capsule, and the pack contents as capsules, grams or millilitres. Soap, face wash, cream and lip balm are for external use and are sized in grams or millilitres. Compare within one type, because a capsule, a collagen tub and a cream are not measured in the same way.

Frequently asked questions

How is hyaluronic acid listed on a supplement label?

Either as hyaluronic acid or as sodium hyaluronate, its sodium salt, with the amount in mg per capsule, tablet or serving. The label states whether an amount is per capsule or per daily serving, and the daily serving can be more than one capsule, so compare products by the amount per daily serving.

How do I count the servings in a bottle of hyaluronic acid liquid?

Divide the volume of the bottle by the serving volume in millilitres printed on the label. The nutrition table gives the hyaluronic acid per serving, and the ingredient list names the flavour and any sweeteners. A serving is a measured amount, not the whole bottle, so compare liquids by the amount per serving and the price per serving.

What does the open-jar symbol with a number of months mean on a cream?

It is the period-after-opening symbol: the number shows how many months the cosmetic can be used once the pack has been opened, for example 12M for twelve months. It is shown on the pack or box of creams, face washes and lip balms, often beside the batch number, and is separate from the durability date, which refers to the pack before it is opened.
