CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum
As explained on the product website, HA is a powerful hydrating ingredient found naturally in skin. With age, it becomes depleted and can require replenishing to help prevent dry skin.
CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum is formulated with vitamin B5 and three essential ceramides to help bind moisture to the skin’s surface, smoothing it and providing up to 24 hr of hydration. This reportedly helps to restore skin’s protective barrier.
Whether used alone or layered with other serums and moisturizers, this refreshing gel-cream facial serum is said to provide instantly smoother, softer skin.
The product leverages the company's patented MVE technology, which encapsulates ceramides to ensure efficient delivery within the skin’s barrier and slow release over time.
Immediately after use, 90% of consumers tested said their skin felt intensely hydrated, and 98% of consumers tested said their skin felt smoother after just four weeks of use, the company reports.
