I usually just use a moisturiser but have decided I need to up my game as I’m looking like shit. So , I spotted these capsules on Saturday , 3 different ones and on 3 for 2 .
On the packaging it tells you to follow with a serum and a moisturiser but I thought these are a serum ?
Bit confused 🤔

I think they are like a booster thing. But I'd use them like a serum as frankly I haven't got time for 3 steps after cleansing.

After using for the last 3 nights I’m not sure I’m very impressed . Feel very much like putting primer on, looking at the ingredients I think it’s because they Contain a lot of silicones .

If it's basically just hyaluronic acid, it's a big standard serum, (HA is in almost every serum as the main hydrating ingredient, from high end ones like Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair and Clarins Double to, well, everything on the high street) HA needs to be applied to damp skin as it works by attracting moisture.
I've used loads of different ones, but tbh, don't find it particularly life changing.

Bog not big!

Your main ingredient is silicone, the HA is pretty far down the list. As you say, they probably feel like a primer because of all that silicone. They might also make any moisturizer "pill" afterwards.
