This has very quickly been a holy grail ingredient list that will ALWAYS be in my skincare arsenal.
According to the Inkey list website this hold four times as much moisture as Hyularonic acid, is
ultra-hydrating and locks in moisture help the skin appear instantly smoother.
The Key Ingredients are 3% polyglutamic complex designed to enhance skin moisturisation and
2% invisaskin maintains moisture levels.
This can be used morning/night. This is the LAST serum before you use makeup or moisturiser. Please remember this when layering as this will LOCK in moisture!
When used with Hyaluronic acid this is a POWERHOUSE for hydration. This is an amazing combination for dehydrated skin.
This formula is quickly absorbed into skin, immediately feeling smooth, soft and extremely hydrating. Honestly this serum makes me want to stroke my face afterwards.
This can also be used with foundation too. It is great for making a matte formula more of a silky and hydrating one - which would be great for drier skins.
This also claims to help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, as well as brighten and even skin tone.
Long term use of hydrators can soften lines and the brightening/evening can come from skin having the right hydration.
However I don't believe that this is a star ingredient for any of the above on their OWN. On their packaging they suggest for a glow to use their 15% Vitamin C and EGF.
As someone who uses retinols, aha/bha/phas, has the occasional clinical treatments, AND likes to try products this is a no brainer regular purchase.
