RD Derma Elastin Firming Gel

1. Morning and evening, on clean skin. Tone first if that is your habit.
2. Smooth a thin layer over face, neck, décolleté and eye contour. Body areas take it too.
3. Let it absorb completely before anything goes on top. It takes under a minute.
4. Follow with your day or night cream, then sun protection in the morning.
5. If you also use Derma Collagen, apply that one first and let it settle.

How is it different from Derma Collagen?

Different protein, different result. Derma Elastin works on elastin fibres, so it targets tone, density and the look of pores. Derma Collagen works on collagen and the look of fine lines. The brand sells them as a pair because they cover different ground.

Can I use both gels in the same routine?

Yes, that is how the brand intends it. Apply one, let it absorb fully, then the other, then your cream. If that feels like too many steps, alternate: Derma Collagen in the morning, Derma Elastin in the evening. Consistency matters more than order.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

The supplier lists dry, normal, oily and sensitive skin, and the formula contains no fragrance at all, which removes the most common trigger. Patch test behind the ear for two days if your skin reacts easily, then start once daily before going twice.

How long before I notice anything?

Tone and texture usually register first, over several weeks of twice-daily use. Firmness is slower and depends on how consistently you apply it. Treat it as a long practice rather than a short course. A 60 ml bottle used morning and evening lasts a good while.
