Nutrients. 2021;13(7):2220. doi:10.3390/nu13072220 I occasionally include hyaluronic acid into my general skincare routine, as it is mostly included in a serum or moisturiser that I use, but I was intrigued to see if this set would bring better results. Even active ingredients that don’t always mix well with others, such as vitamin C and retinol, play nicely with hyaluronic acid. You can use them in the same routine, and hyaluronic acid can even counterbalance any sensitivity or dryness caused by certain active ingredients. The Mad Hippie serum contains quite a few antioxidants along with hyaluronic acid to combine brightening and hydrating benefits.Because hyaluronic acid can be a large molecule, it's difficult for the ingredient to penetrate the top layers of the skin, so you want to look for a formula that features varying weights and sizes of hyaluronic acid molecules, instructs Dr. Gohara. If you use one with just one size that’s too big, the product will just sit on top of your skin and you won’t get any long-term hydrating benefits. Think about other ingredients in the formula.

HA between 50 to 1,000 kDa is the most beneficial for skin, with about 130 kDa being the best, according to the most recent human studies. Anything higher won’t make too much of a difference. Anything lower might cause inflammation. Pavicic T, et al. (2011).

The intensive one week hydration treatment comes with seven anti-ageing ampoules that contain a decent amount of hyaluronic acid. The testing process itself was straightforward but comprehensive. We prepared by familiarizing ourselves with hyaluronic acid, reading and following the manufacturer’s recommended instructions, and performing a spot test to rule out any irritation or reaction. At first the serum left our skin feeling a little tight, but after using it consistently our skin was smoother, brighter, and more hydrated.It leaves a little residue behind on your hands. Also, while the serum has a subtle and pleasant scent, you’ll want to be mindful of the added fragrance if you have sensitve skin. This is a great choice for anyone who doesn’t mind spending a little extra in the name of skincare. It is on the pricier side, but we swear that it gave us luxuriously smooth, dewy skin (which also makes it a solid option for anyone with dull, dry skin). To answer this properly, we must first explain what hyaluronic acid itself is (or allow Dija to). “It’s a large sugar molecule that is naturally produced in large quantities by the body,” Dija tells us. “It acts as a humectant, enabling the skin to retain water so it’s very good at helping the skin stay supple and hydrated,” she continues. Serums, as you might be aware, are products applied after cleansing, but before moisturising, that house high concentrations of active ingredients to target certain skin concerns you may have. So, there you have it! Skin loses water and moisture as we age, and this ingredient will help store hydration. The result is a softer, plumper, and even skin tone. It can improve fine lines and wrinkles as well,” Engelman says. Vitamin C Although hyaluronic acid injections are more effective than creams or serums, research suggests that applying hyaluronic acid to the face may help:

Pereira TV, Jüni P, Saadat P, et al. Viscosupplementation for knee osteoarthritis: Systematic review and meta-analysis. BMJ. 2022. doi:10.1136/bmj-2022-069722 Hyaluronic acid is a molecule found naturally in our own bodies, lubricating our joints, nerves, eyes, skin and hair. As we get older our bodies produce less hyaluronic acid (brilliant) which is one of the reasons our skin starts to wrinkle and sag. It is also a humectant, which means it helps preserve moisture in the skin. Paula explains: "One of hyaluronic acid’s most remarkable traits is its ability to attract and hold several times its weight in water that is naturally in the environment, the body, or in the skincare products we apply." Basically, think of hyaluronic acid as a sponge attracting and retaining moisture in your skin. What are the benefits of using a hyaluronic acid serum? Walker K, Basehore BM, Goyal A, et al. Hyaluronic acid. In: StatPearls. StatPearls Publishing; 2023.If you need extra soothing or hydration, this is the formula to lean on. We found that with repeated use of the product, the inflammation had dissipated, and our skin appeared calmer and less red. The Ordinary is known for creating brilliantly hardworking, fuss-free buys with incredibly effective ingredient concentrations, and this is no exception. At 2%, this is the highest concentration of HA on this list, for the lowest price point – which is classic The Ordinary. Our number one choice for the best hyaluronic acid serum is the ISDIN Isdinceutics Hyaluronic Concentrate—a dermatologist favorite that delivers a supple, smooth complexion and 24 hours of hydration on all skin types. That said, those on a budget should consider The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5, a popular formula that works hard to hydrate the skin while calming inflammation. There’s also ingestible hyaluronic acid, which is a capsule filled with the active ingredient. The idea is that by taking a supplement, levels of the hyaluronic acid will be steady, and the effects will last, according to one study. And it appears to work: The researchers found that participants who took 120 milligrams (mg) of hyaluronic acid per day for 12 weeks improved their skin wrinkles and their overall skin condition. However, more research needs to be conducted on oral hyaluronic acid. With 1.5% hyaluronic acid as the only active ingredient, Kiehl’s Ultra Pure High-Potency 1.5% hyaluronic acid serum is a simple but targeted formula. “I like Kiehl's, and this product has a potent formulation of hyaluronic acid, which is great,” Dr. Salyards says. With 1.5% concentration, it’s right in the range our dermatologists recommend—0.5 to 2.0 percent.
