The Edyt Score

4.5 / 5.0

Key ingredients 4.4/5

Hyaluronic Acid 2% plus B5 with ceramides. A hydrating serum with a little barrier support, not Multi-Peptide and not the NMF cream.

Targets 4.5/5

For a plumping water layer under cream. Skip Multi-Peptide if this HA bottle is the hydrate step, and skip NMF if a serum is wanted.

Formula standards 4.5/5

A slightly slick serum. On very dry skin it can feel tight unless a cream goes on while it is still damp.

The verdict

A solid HA and ceramide serum. One ounce is enough.
