Hyaluronic Acid Serum

Best Brands

There are many brands available in the market but Drunk Elephant and The Ordinary stand out from the rest due to their potent and effective composition. The Ordinary incorporates vitamin B5 into its hyaluronic acid serum, making it extremely effective and potent in comparison to other skincare brands. 

Hyaluronic Acid Serum Benefits

The human body naturally produces hyaluronic acid and it is found mostly in the joints and eyes. Topical application on the skin can help restore its moisture, making it soft and supple. It also aids in better absorption of skincare products if layered under them. This in turn reduces signs of ageing and removes dry patches from the skin, giving it a smoother and firmer appearance. 

Skin disorders caused by dryness such as dermatitis, redness and itching cause extreme discomfort and applying hyaluronic acid can greatly help soothe the irritation down. Regular use will make the skin hydrated from within and glow naturally. This will also make the application of makeup easy and seamless. 

How to Use

It is best to follow the instructions on the product as the application may vary depending on the formula and other ingredients in the composition. A general rule of thumb is to use it every morning and night, after washing the face with a good cleanser. While your face is still damp, apply a few drops of hyaluronic acid and let it absorb. Then apply the serum of your choice, carry on with your skincare regime or just top it with your favourite moisturizer. You can also use it on other parts of the body. 

Warning

You only need a little amount as using too much of this product can dry out the skin. Avoid using Hyaluronic Acid serum with Vitamin C, Retinol products or other acids. This can cause an allergic reaction on some skin types or it could cancel out all benefits.

However, if you plan on combing the two then make sure to apply the vitamin C serum first and let it absorb fully and then go on with the hyaluronic acid. Do not apply the product to wounds or broken skin. Discontinue use if any irritation appears and always do a patch test before using the product.
