The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5

Was disappointed, I put it on under my foundation and went about only to realise my foundation slid off. Tried to incorporate into my PM routine instead but it "pilled" and came off when I was layering products. The price is great and so is the premise of hydrated skin but I am not continuing use to establish results. I have combination skin and was hoping to prevent signs of ageing and plump up a bit. Still a fan of other products from this brand, I tried so hard to like it.

Hyaluronic Acid is a pretty basic ingredient in almost all moisturisers these days, so I feel like this is one of The Ordinary's least necessary products. The Ordinary advises customers to use no more than 3 of their serums in your skincare routine, and I'm afraid there's definitely 3 others I would choose over this. It also leaves a tacky feeling to the skin. It's not the worst product, it's just not one that I really find myself using anymore now that I am using the better products from The Ordinary range

I've been using this for the past couple of weeks and I noticed I have less oiliness, or dare I say dryness on my cheeks. Could it be that because my skin is moisturised, it is producing less oil? I have combination skin, so this is great for my T zone, but I apply extra moisturiser on my cheeks to counter the dryness. I wouldn't change a thing and I wish this product was around during my teens!

Be aware before you jump on the hyaluronic bandwagon that this acid has to draw moisture from somewhere and if there is no moisture in the environment you live in, it will suck it from your skin rather than adding moisture to it. Living in Perth in the middle of winter, this left my sin parched, tight and itchy.

this formula feels kinda of sticky and thick however once its on your skin and drys its perfect! extremely hydrating and works well with the buffet :)

Instantly hydrating and plumping. As other reviewers have said, wake up with a face as soft as a baby's bottom.Best used before, or mixed with, your final stage of a moisturiser/oil. I love mixing this with The Ordinary Rosehip or Squalane oil.

I would highly recommend adding this product to your skin care routine. I apply to product morning and night before applying any of my other serums and I just find it is a great base of hydration to have in your regimen. It is super affordable and smells great! I couldn't go a day without applying my Hyaluronic Acid and I'll definitely be coming back to get this product again once my bottle is done :) My skin has not felt more hydrated during winter!

I have very oily skin and this did the complete opposite of what it's meant to do. After 4 days of using this product, it left my skin tight and dehydrated. I have had better results from Deciem's Hylamide Low-Molecular HA.

It's great to know it works amazingly for other people, but unfortunately I'm not one of them.

I was hesitant to try this but after trying so many up-market brands and them not doing anything, I figured I had nothing to lose. I got this and The Natural Moisturising Factors. My skin has never been this good, and it's during a Melbourne winter.

Cheap, nice packaging, works amazingly. This with the Niacinamide works so well together. My pores have been reduced, my breakouts smaller and my skin softer. It's easy to apply and for such a cheap product is does wonders.
I love this and will be buying again :)

I've not really had a skincare routine before, but recently I started using this moisturiser in conjunction with a the Skinstitute Gentle Cleanser. I've only been using it for a few weeks now but I really love it. It is incredibly light - not oily at all - and I find that it absorbs into my skin like water into a paper towel. It just vanishes from my face (or into my face as is the case) in seconds leaving my skin feeling refreshed and also tighter than before, tighter in a good way. My skin feels refreshed and soft throughout the day, and I also believe it has a positive impact on my skin creases and wrinkles. I definitely recommend this product, especially considering its low price.

I liked using this product, it was lightweight and the packaging made it really easy to use. The serum absorbed into my skin really easily with no residue and a nice simple scent. I think the formula is more suited to normal to combination skin types as my skin is very dry and needs something a bit heavier and richer.

I think this product is best suited to normal/combination skin types or someone who is looking for a lightweight treatment.

I've never really been a huge fan of moisturising as I don't really like that kind of moist feeling it leaves on my skin, but this really seems to absorb quickly and it leaves my skin feeling more refreshed than anything. It's super easy to just put a few drops on my skin after a shower, and it has a noticeable effect for at least a good 12 hours afterwards, my skin has even felt noticeably less oily 24 hours or more after using it.

I don't usually moisturise my skin because it's quite oily and prone to blackheads. I have been using this instead of a moisturiser and find it's a really good alternative for my skin type. I like that it doesn't really have a scent at all, and it absorbs really easily into my skin.

I really like the fact that this is affordable, so if I go overboard and use too much I'm not worried about it. Since using this and the NIOD Sanskrit cleanser, my skin has started to feel less oily and congested and is much more comfortable throughout the day.

I saw Jaclyn Hill do a skincare routine and she said she uses Hyaluronic Acid, so I thought I'd see if I could find it and if it was affordable. I am soooo glad I did. Iv only been using this for 3 days and I can already see a huge difference in my skin. This is so so amazing!!! I cannot wait to order more from The Ordinary range.

As a beauty therapist I have used a lot of different Hyaluronic acids in the past and am always making clients to use them too as an essential part of a skincare routine. I've purchased and been using The Ordinary' s one as a trial and am quite blown away! Not only is it stronger than most of the ones that are readily available but it's so cost effective it's ridiculous! My skin has been looking and feeling so hydrated! I am very impressed and have now purchased another dozen products to try from the range!

I have been using this at night with the rose hip seed oil and my skin has never been this clear before. I have combination oily-dry skin so I find it hard to find the right balance. I also have been using the niacinamide/zinc serum in the morning for oil control and this at night for a moisture boost.

I have just purchased quite a few items from The Ordinary and this one is fantastic. I have oily prone skin and since I've been using this at night to hydrate, and alternating it with the Niacinamide, my skin looks better than ever!

For me the serum is really good I'm impressed

Feels great on the skin lightweight and absorbs quickly. Packaging is wonderful and looks high end.

I recently was diagnosed with eczema around my eyes and so I have been trying to find suitable skin care that wont make my skin crawl and crack.

I have used this once tonight together with the Retinoid Cream and the Moisturizing cream. OMG I have not felt relief like this in months!!!!! I am so happy I stumbled upon this skincare line!

I use this serum right after I take shower to lock in natural skin hydration. It plumps up my skin and makes my skin ready for moisturiser. I recommend this because I have dehydrated & flaky skin and this always helps combat that. I am in love with the Ordinary Range already. Love... Love... Love... Cant praise it enough. Highly recommend!!!!

The Ordinary falls under the umbrella of Deciem which also created NIOD (and its amazing neck gel!). Their products are all free of animal testing, sulphates, mineral oil, and mercury.

I decided to try this because I wanted to put more benefit of Hyaluronic Acid onto my skin. This product is free from silicone and alcohol. I have use this for almost two weeks as part of my PM skin care and noticed the difference with my skin in the morning (brighter and less tired-looking). I'd love to try their Vitamin C suspension next time :-)

I am one of the few who in the past who have found previous Hyaluronic Acids have dried my skin out. It would feel worse than if I haven't used it. Weird I know.
But this product is amazing. I have Oily Combo skin that is dehydrated. I used it for the first time at night followed by tThe Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors lotion and woke up the next morning with skin like a baby's bottom !
So soft and PLUMP that lasts all day.
This goes a long way so you only need 2 or 3 drops. Now I use it morning and night after cleanser and toner and before night time skin care or morning moisturiser.
Highly recommend
