Medik8 Hydr8 B5 Serum 30ml

Medik8's original hyaluronic acid serum, and still one of the most reliable hydrators in the range. Hydr8 B5 floods multiple layers of the skin with multi-weight hyaluronic acid, leaving it visibly plumped and supple and softening the look of fine lines.

Vitamin B5 (panthenol) helps the skin hold onto that moisture and supports regeneration, so the effect builds through the day rather than fading by lunchtime. Using several molecular weights of hyaluronic acid is what allows hydration at different depths instead of only on the surface.

The formula is oil-free and absorbs quickly, which makes it a good fit for normal, oily and combination skin as well as dehydrated skin of any type.

It layers neatly under anything, and it is particularly useful alongside a vitamin A routine where dehydration is the limiting factor.

Apply to a cleansed, slightly damp face morning and evening before moisturiser - damp skin gives hyaluronic acid something to draw on.

Hydration is the step most routines under-invest in. Hydr8 B5 goes under your moisturiser morning and night, and it is the product to add if a retinal routine has started to feel uncomfortable before you drop the strength.
