If you're not getting good glow from your hyaluronic acid, there could be good reason.

Influencer and TikTok star @rocio.roses has shared a mistake many people make when using their product, revealing a great hack to make the most of your serum; spritzing your face beforehand.

"You have to put moisture back into your face, whether it's water or a facial spray," Rocio points out.

"Hyaluronic acid holds 1000-times its weight in water; it is a humectant, so it will hold the water molecules on the surface of your face to keep you nice and plump, hydrated and dewy.

Rocio likes to use a spritz, apply her hyaluronic acid, then spritz her face again.

After letting it absorb for a minute, she "seals it right away" with a moisturiser.

Her followers loved the hack, claiming it's changed how their skin looks.

"What a difference!!!" raved one person with happy skin.

"LOVE," another said.
