description

Hyaluronic acid is a natural moisturizing factor (NMF) that can bind up to 1000 times its own weight in water. This formula focuses on ultra-moisturizing high-molecular-weight versions for ample surface hydration as well as on medium-molecular weight versions, whose strong point is to strengthen the skin barrier and to reinforce the skin’s natural defense & healing mechanisms.

Ingredients & Research

key ingredients:

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer A new generation, cross-linked hyaluronic acid, whose water binding ability is several times greater than the already amazing water-binding ability of hyaluronic acid. Also offers longer-term moisturizing benefits.

Sodium Hyaluronate - The most common, salt-form of hyaluronic acid that can be found in larger and smaller molecular weight in the formula.

Tremella Fuciformis (Mushroom) Extract – The extract of silver ear mushroom known for its amazing water-binding abilities. It contains sugar constituents including Glucuronic acid, one of the building blocks of Hyaluronic Acid. It also cosmetically elegant, non-sticky, and has additional antioxidant benefits.

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid – A smaller molecular weight version of Hyaluronic Acid that is known for its ability to reinforce the skin’s natural defense & healing mechanisms.

Panthenol – A classic skincare ingredient that is a reliable soothing, moisturizing and skin-protecting agent.

The best!

This is the best HA serum I have tried. Leaves skin nourished, fresh, and even plump without any sticky feeling. Love it!

Incroyable

Ce produit est incroyable, un changeur de peau. Hydratation +++.
En revanche, contenant beaucoup trop petit qui me pousse à chercher un acide hyaluronique aussi efficace... Ailleurs. En 100ml, non en 30.
Un flacon me dure 2 semaines, c'est bien trop peu.

Fantastic product that makes my skin look so plumped and souple. I put my day cream on top of it as it’s getting colder!

Love it!

This is my absolute favorite from Geek&Gorgeous, the texture is great, rapidly absorbed by the skin, super hydrating, and very affordable. I keep repurchasing it, along with B-Bomb!
