Description

Weightless, oil-free hydration.

Hydrating B5 Gel combines hyaluronic acid with vitamin B5 to flood skin with water and help it hold on to moisture, with zero oil or heaviness. Skin feels smooth, replenished, and refreshed.

Why it is worth it
An affordable, universally useful hydration booster that layers under anything and makes retinols and acids more comfortable to use.

How it compares
For deeper, anti-aging-leaning hydration that boosts your skin's own HA, see H.A. Intensifier. Hydrating B5 Gel is the simple, everyday water-based layer.

Best for: all skin types, especially oily skin and anyone using actives.
Not ideal for: very dry skin needing a rich cream on its own (layer a moisturizer over it).

How to use
Apply a few drops to clean skin morning and night, before your moisturizer.

Directions

1. Apply 2-3 drops of hydrating serum to the entire face, neck, and chest areas. Avoid the eye area.

2. For morning use, apply after a Vitamin C antioxidant serum and before a sunscreen. For evening use, apply after retinol application.
