Amazing Product -

It absorbs nicely on skin, and leaves my skin hydrated while plump. This product doesn't leave a sticky residue which I've seen on some hyaluronic serums.

Also not a glass packaging which is great for clumsy people like me haha.

10/10!!

(remember - apply hyaluronic acid serum onto damp skin!) <3

It absorbs nicely and quickly into my skin and doesn't leave a sticky layer. It definitely provides hydration. If I put this on and stop my skincare routine to do something else my skin still feels plump. It works well on my whole face. I would repurchase this product.
