Shoppers Choice:
L’Oreal Hyaluronic Acid Serum
Highlights: Dermatologist validated for efficacy with the optimal concentration of hyaluronic acid; hydrates your skin while visibly reducing wrinkles; lightweight formula that quickly absorbs with no tacky feel or leftover residue
“I started using this product a month ago and I love it! I apply it night and day. At night, my routine is: wash face (remove makeup at night), tone, then apply the L’Oreal Hyaluronic Acid Serum before I finish with a light face lotion. Sometimes I forget to apply lotion but this is lightly moisturizing even when used alone. The serum is clear, scent free and slippery when applied. I use about 2-3 drops and rub it all over my face and neck. I’m already seeing a noticeable difference in my skin – it feels much more supple, the surface smoother and softer to touch. I highly recommend adding this to your routine for any type of skin! My skin is combination, for your reference.” – Maggie
