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.

Waste of money,CLEARLY didnt work for me
I wanted to start a vitamin c and after reading a lot of reviews saying this is a good choice for beginners, i decided to purchase it. I started using it once every three to four days just to see if it would cause any sensitivities. At first there were no problems but no results either (even after a month) i made sure to keep the bottle away from the sun but it still oxidized way too fast. Eventually i had dermatitis on my face and i blamed it on this serum (even though i have my suspicions that it could be another product - the la roche possay cicaplast) i was using both at that time so i decided to throw both.
