Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5

A moisture-replenishing powerhouse of Hyaluronic Acid and vitamin B5 that deeply hydrates, plumps, and smoothes skin.

WHY IT’S SPECIAL

A natural building block of our skin, hyaluronic acid makes for an outstanding ingredient that is critical for moisture production and retention. This moisture-magnet attracts up to 1000 times its molecular weight in water, offering hydration even in the deep layers of the skin. When applied topically, it lends a nourishing, plumping effect, holding onto hydration while simultaneously drawing it in from the surrounding air.

Distilled into this serum is also the addition of Vitamin B5 – also known as Panthenol – that further draws hydration back into the skin, along with other hydrating agents including an algae-derived plant extract to banish all signs of dryness from your complexion.

Friendly with all skin types, this serum is a must-have in anyone’s skincare cabinet.

(Tip: Water-binding ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid especially love humid environments, making it perfect for use in the Singapore climate!)

Suitable for: All skin types.

Feels like: A lightweight, cooling watery gel.

pH Level: 6.50-7.50

HOW TO USE

• On damp skin after cleansing, apply 1-3 drops to face and neck, then pat or massage into skin until absorbed.

• Follow with moisturiser.

Use in the AM and/or PM.

GOOD TO KNOW

• Suitable to use with any other The Ordinary products.

• This formula should not be used on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Always conduct a patch test before use on unbroken skin.

• Should any irritation occur, stop use immediately and consult your local physician.

• Keep out of reach from children.

• Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is found in the skin naturally but its natural function within the skin is not hydration. Many products have used HA to claim hydration benefits, but HA is too large of a molecule to penetrate the skin and instead sits on the surface and can draw moisture out of the skin making the surface feel soft and hydrated temporarily, while making you feel like you need more HA after the product is rinsed. This formula uses three forms of HA with varying molecular weights, as well as an HA cross-polymer, to offer multi-depth hydration and visible plumping without drawing water out of the skin solely to improve temporary surface hydration
