I love hyaluronic acid. It instantly plumps your skin. I've tried ones from Neutrogena, the ordinary, inkey list and some korean ones as well. I might not love them all but I don't hate them.
I hate this one.
First, some pros - the glass bottle makes it feel super luxurious. The pipette means it's hygienic to use. For me, the pros stop there.
It is so heavily fragranced! I can't even bear to use it. I am a huge believer that facial skin care should not be fragranced. It irritates a lot of people's skin and just doesn't add anything even if you don't have sensitive skin.
It's lightweight and a thin, water like consistency. It doesn't leave my skin plump at all like the others I've tried. I feel like my skin is more dehydrated after using it and have to layer thick moisturiser on top. I've used it morning and night and don't like it with either. Usually, hyaluronic acid leaves my skin so soft and smooth. But this is just a huge miss.
My verdict - the ordinary or Inkey list are way better!
Great serum to quickly add moisture morning and night. The dropper works well for controlling the amount you want and the packaging is perfectly nice. The serum does absorb quickly and left my face feeling refreshed and ready for the next layers of my skincare routine. My skin felt plumper and more elastic straight after application and it seemed to keep my skin hydrated throughout the day, The reason I've scored this product so low for whether I'd use it again simply comes down to the fragrance being so strong. I found it overpowering and quite unpleasant. A real shame considering I enjoyed everything else about this serum, especially since such a powerful scent is unneccessary in skincare. I will admit though, it does die down as the day goes on.
Tips: If you can handle strong fragrances on your face, go for it, the other features are great.
