COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence 7 ingredients
Good lightweight Essence, leaves the skin feeling plump and hydrated but sometimes it only makes my skin feeling dry so i have yo double add avene cream which provides more glow than this.
It does nothing but hydrates, affordable for the size but I won’t buy it again as i believe there are better HA serums/essences
Essence that feels like moisturizer.
This product does nothing but smoothing effect on my skin. No breakout or irritation.
