Hyaluronic acid serums are a must-have in every skin routine. Hyaluronic acid, which is naturally produced by the skin, is part of the natural moisturizing factors that help the skin retain water, which in turn creates the appearance of a smooth, supple complexion. The thing, though, is that it’s not always easy to pick the best hyaluronic acid serum for each skin types–while some people prefer to get their hydration from a fluid serum that’s light as water, other prefer a richer, syrupy formula to bring extra comfort to the skin.
Here’s how you can pick yours:
The best hyaluronic acid serum for each skin type
Pestle & Mortar Pure Hyaluronic Serum
The serum for all skin types
The Pestle & Mortar Pure Hyaluronic Serum is one of our favorite hyaluronic acid serums. The 98% natural formula combines three types of hyaluronic acid of different molecular weights to achieve a multifaceted effect: lock in moisture, provide in-depth hydration, and stimulate the skin’s own production of hyaluronic acid.
The lightweight formula works well across skin types, from the driest to the oiliest, and it’s fragrance-free too–perfect for those looking for a product without added extras.
Esthederm Intensive Hyaluronic Serum
The anti-aging serum
If you’re looking for a hyaluronic acid serum that’s more focused on wrinkle correction, try the Esthederm Intensive Hyaluronic Serum. In addition to three types of hyaluronic acid of different molecular weights, this formula also includes Eau Cellulaire, a patented ingredient that optimizes the skin’s natural functions, which in turn helps preserve a youthful appearance.
Ideal for use in the morning or evening (or twice a day!), this serum provides a filling effect on fine lines, and is suitable for all types of dehydrated skin.
Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler 3x Effect Ultra Light Moisture Booster
The all-in-one serum
Looking for a dermatologist-approved product that gets the job done without breaking the bank? Try the Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler 3x Effect Ultra Light Moisture Booster, a refreshing gel-serum that instantly boosts the skin’s hydration levels–with results that last up to 24 hours!
With only 11 ingredients, this formula gets the job done through the combined hydrating benefits of hyaluronic acid and glycerin. Use it as the first step in your skincare routine, in the morning or evening, and you’ll be giving your skin a welcome shot of hydration.
Bioderma Hydrabio Hyalu+ Serum Self-Rehydrating Replumping Concentrate
The niacinamide combo
If you love the classic Bioderma Hydrabio serum, you’ll love its new sibling: the Bioderma Hydrabio Hyalu+ Serum, a multi-benefit serum that hydrates and repairs the skin while helping to prevent wrinkles and fill in existing fine lines.
The formula combines two types of hyaluronic acid of different molecular weights (for a plumping effect on the surface and deep hydration), a new self-rehydrating sugar (to help the skin preserve its hyaluronic acid stores), and niacinamide (to strengthen and reinforce the skin’s barrier function). The result is a lightweight and versatile serum, ideal for dehydrated skin that’s struggling with the first signs of aging.
ISDINCEUTICS Hyaluronic Concentrate
The skin-smoothing serum
One of the most elegant hyaluronic acid serums we know is the ISDINCEUTICS Hyaluronic Concentrate, a gel-serum with a light and fresh water-like texture that hydrates the skin on the surface and in depth, all the while filling in fine lines and refining the appearance of enlarged pores.
The key ingredients in this formula are pure hyaluronic acid, of course, combined with BioMarine, a filling and firming ingredient of marine origin, and two peptides, part of the famous Matrixyl 3000, that help improve the elasticity of the skin.
Caudalie VinoHydra Hyaluronic Serum
The antioxidant serum
Formulated with 97% ingredients of natural origin, the Caudalie VinoHydra Hyaluronic Serum provides the skin with a hydrating, soothing, and antioxidant effect.
In addition to the hydrating effect of hyaluronic acid (which, in this case, is 100% natural and produced through biotechnology), this formula also features the soothing and prebiotic benefits of organic grape water and the antioxidant benefits of French grape polyphenols. The fluid formula is oil-free, to suit all skin types, and vegan, to suit your ideals!
