Hydrating Skincare Has Hyaluronic Acid
Despite its name, hyaluronic acid is not an acid, but a humectant. This molecule is found in our bodies naturally and serve to keep our joints lubricated. It holds up to 1000x’s its weight in water making it a perfect hydrator.
If you find your skin feeling tight and dry, seek out products that contain this ingredient. It’s usually labeled on the bottle. The price of the products containing it can vary but there’s always something within any budget.
1. The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid Serum
The Ordinary is amazing because it’s such a good quality product at a good price. Apply this serum day or night after you finish toning your face.
2. Elizavecca Aqua Hyaluronic Acid Water Drop Cream
This lightweight cream is perfect for daytime use. I love this Korean brand! Not only is the packaging cute but the quality for the price can’t be beat.
3. Elizavecca Moisture Hyaluronic Acid Memory Cream
Staying on the Elizavecca train, this is a cream that’s fantastic for night use. But I find if you use a little less, it functions as a wonderful day cream as well because of how lightweight it is. Definitely buildable.
4. Belif Aqua Bomb Sleeping Mask
Belif is one of my all-time favorite brands. It moisturizes skin in an amazing way! Their Sleeping Mask is perfect for the moments your skin needs a pick-me-up. A sleeping mask is like a thicker cream. It’s the last thing you apply before sleeping. Yes, even on top of your night cream. Wake up to glowing, dewy skin and wash away the excess in the morning.
5. Belif Aqua Bomb Hydrating Toner
If you’re looking for a toner that hydrates and evens out your skin tone, Belif makes something for that too. Honestly, you really can’t go wrong with this brand when it comes to hydration. It is a little more on the pricy side but I’m in love with them.
Add as few or as many of these as you want! And if you find you still need something, go with a round of sheet masks to get your skin right. If you’re looking for more tips and products, make sure to check out my newsletter.
