Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5
Should you consider this?
- Skin that feels tight or looks dull by mid-afternoon
- Layering under a moisturiser, on damp skin
- Anyone expecting it to work on its own in dry air — it needs sealing
A humectant that holds 1000x its weight in water for instant plumping. Near the top of the list — present at a meaningful level. Research supports 0.1–2%.
Vitamin B5 that acts as a humectant, emollient, and skin healer all in one. Mid-list — present, but not the headline of this formula.
After cleansing, before moisturiser.
Ingredients above 1% must be listed in order of weight; below that they can be listed in any order. Phenoxyethanol sits at #22 and is used at well under 1%, so roughly everything after it is present in small amounts.
Three molecular weights of HA target every layer of your skin — lightweight enough for any skin type, even oily.
Can feel tacky on its own, and needs a moisturiser over it — on dry air days it may otherwise pull moisture out of the skin rather than into it.
- 2% hyaluronic acid complex
- Vitamin B5 (panthenol)
