Hyaluronic acid serum recommendations

[autumnleaves19]

Looking for a cheaper alternative to the la Roche posay hydraphase serum which is around £20. Only consideration is I have sensitive skin!

Please let me know your recommendations

The Ordinary every time. I love it.

Hada labo premium hyaluronic serum
It's the bloody dogs bollocks!

another vote for the Ordinary. It's £5 or £6 :-)
Been using for 6 months and I've recently been getting compliments on my skin. i buy several at the same time so I don't have to be stingy about extending use down to my neck/decolletage

Hada Labo. Brilliant and a good price too

Beautifully - I've just ordered the Hada Labo serum - am I a sucker or is it really that good?! Can I wear it under my hyaluronic moisturizer or is that hyaluronic overkill?

rhubarb - it's definitely that good!

I layer my serums, especially under make up and do not use a moisturiser (as most aggregate my rosacea), and my skin is so hydrated and plump.
I use a facial oil at night for extra moisture, but the hada labo is the last step before my primer in the morning.
It is so smoothing, hydrating, and seems to calm any breakouts or rosacea redness.
Dry, flaky areas are eased, and it doesn't make my skin oily.
It's also not sticky at all, a problem with TO hyaluronic serum, which I didn't like under my make up.
Also, foundation goes on beautifully over it if you don't want to use a primer.

It's bloody good value, and I am never without it.

I would also use it under your hyaluronic moisturiser, don't see why not.

I often use TO marine hyaluronic as well as the hada labo - my skin is left ultra soft.

Thank you beautifully; I have very dry skin so I think I need to moisturise too. Can't wait for it to arrive now!

I like the Nip and Fab one- can't remember the name- orange can.
I am going to try the Hada Labo now though

The Ordinary is gloopy and slimy. I couldn't bear the texture and after reading about the owner I won't buy anything else from them.

Hopefully, you all love the hada labo serum as much as I do!

I agree about the gloopy, thick texture of TO hyaluronic serum, this is one of the reasons I love the hada labo (I also love the regular one too), the texture is so smooth, and glides on like a dream.
Oil or moisturiser layer beautifully as well, and it makes the skin look plump and healthy.

I have the hada labo now and so far so good! Not sure whether to use it day and night ? At the moment I'm using at night only

Day and night!
Especially in this harsh weather.
I usually use three serums, layering them, as this suits my skin better than moisturisers, and leaves it really hydrated.

I often put on two layers, patting it in to the skin, or sometimes use the thinner Hada labo serum first, then the premium on top.
This is when my skin is really dehydrated and flaky, or starting a rosacea flare up.

It is so soothing, and so plumping too.
I wouldn't apply foundation without it.

Can i ask how often you all use the Hylauronic acid,i have got the ordinary,thanks

Morning and night, every single day.
Am never without it. 😊

Please can someone post a link to the Ordinary serum? I've looked on Amazon and there seems to about a billion different products and much more expense than £5-£6. Thank you

Has anyone who's tried Hada labo got acne prone skin? How did you rate it? Could anyone do a link - a lot of options are coming up on Amazon. I'm currently using The Ordinary but it's just so darn sticky. Thank you.

Hada labo. Even add a bit to my body lotion

Google Deciem, you will find TO products there as well as their other more expensive lines. You will also get good descriptions of the products. You can also contact them to get a routine prescribed if you tell them your skin concerns.

rainbow link for Hada labo is the fourth post down.

I have acne prone skin, hormonal jawline acne, and pustular rosacea.
It's a minefield keeping my skin relatively calm.

I swear by TO niacinamide serum, TO granactive retinoid 2%, hyaluronic serum (my beloved Hada labo), and a facial oil.
I also love nip and fab pads, and Cosrx blackhead serum.

I’ve used a whole bottle of Hada Labo Premium Lotion and no breakouts.

Good stuff and a huge amount of it.

This is another alternative to hyaluronic serum (or you can use both as i often do).
It is less thick than the HA, like water, but very hydrating.
I pat it on and into my skin, then layer thicker serums on top.
This is an extra step of moisture for your skin.

TO hyaluronic acid

I finally got my Hada Labo from Japan last week, I had the original one which I liked and lasted ages but definitely loving the Premium one! I’m using it with a rich Eucerin 5% urea moisturiser and my dry sensitive skin is loving it!

Wondered what other serums or essences people thought were good?
