A watery, multi-weight hyaluronic acid serum with panthenol and allantoin for damp-skin hydration before moisturizer. It suits dehydrated oily or combination skin that hates sticky layers, though reactive or very dry users may experience stinging, tightness, or insufficient moisture.

Views differ on acne-prone skin: per sponsored creator 2 and an unsponsored reviewer 8 say it suits it, while a sponsored pharmacist 7 points breakout-prone skin toward a different serum 278. A pharmacist adds it is a good daily hydration pick but not enough alone for repair or anti-aging 5.

What the science says
Hyaluronic acid has some evidence for dehydrated skin, and both studies that tested it directly reported help 1. Studies found it improved how much water the skin held, and one found it worked better than a placebo 1. One study also reported firmer skin and wrinkles that looked less deep, though this comes from a single study 1.
