Testing out "The Ordinary Hyaluranic Acid 2% + B5"

So I turned 30 and am now massively conscious about trying to keep my skin plump, youthful and hydrated. There's been a huge buzz about the benefits of "Hyaluranic acid" and how it's a powerful skincare ingredient that can help retain moisture. It's a humectant (preserve) that attracts water, hydrating the skin without making it oily. For this reason, serums that contain hyaluronic acid are ideal for those with oily skin. It has the benefit of plumping up fine lines and keeping you hydrated. It's a moisture-binding ingredient that can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water. Essentially a magnet for moisture!!!

Enter.... The Ordinary Hyaluranic Acid. I purchased this larger sized bottle from The Beauty Bay for £10.60, which is an absolute bargain when you compare it to other similar products which come in a smaller bottle. You get way more bang for your buck here... https://www.beautybay.com/p/the-ordinary/supersize-hyaluronic-acid-b5/


I have fairly sensitive skin so was quite nervous to use something like this that has a warning straight away about irritation and stopping use and consulting a physician straight away. 
I used it last night for the first time before my anti-aging night cream (Nivea Q10) and again this morning before my moisturiser (Nivea Visage Daily Essentials for dry & sensitive skin) and I won't lie... my face feels plumper (in a good way) and very hydrated! I would definitely give this product a thumbs up, but I'm sure I will need to use it continuously for at least a month to see real results.

Stay tuned...
