Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a sugar found naturally in our skin that holds water and helps keep it hydrated and plump. Just like collagen and elastin, the amount of naturally-occurring hyaluronic acid in our bodies decreases as we get older. When used in skin care products like creams and serums, hyaluronic acid brings moisture to the surface of your skin. Today I will be talking about The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5.
Product Description-
The Ordinary’s Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 is basically a water based serum that contains hyaluronic acid and Vitamin B5.
What Does It Do:
This Hyaluronic Acid Serum aims to hydrate the skin to create a smooth and plump appearance. Hyaluronic acid is an amazing ingredient that can hold up to 1000 times it weight in water therefore giving the skin a boost in hydration, whilst also smoothing the skin texture and giving it a more firm appearance.
Ingredients-
Aqua (Water), Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Panthenol, AhnfeltiaConcinna Extract, Glycerin, Pentylene Glycol, Propanediol, Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-6, PPG-26-Buteth-26, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate, Citric Acid, Ethoxydiglycol, Caprylyl Glycol, Hexylene Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin.

The Ordinary’s Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 has lightweight, gel texture that is easy to spread and apply on to the skin. After the application it doesn’t feel sticky on the face.
This product works really well in making the skin plumper, more hydrated, soft and firmer.

I have never heard about it. Now as you highly recommend it then I will definitely give it try and will let you know.
I have used products containing Hyaluronic acid, but not the serum.
Thanks for sharing it. I will buy coz I know the good effects of Hyaluronic acid.
I have 2 packs of it, love HA from the ordinary. Just make sure you use it on damp skin since it’s humectant.
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid seems to be a good solution for keeping the skin hydrated, hope to try out this product soon.

I think it’s important to know about the ingredients used in your beauty product to make an informed decision.
This product looks so perfect. I think it’s important that we study the list of the ingredients present in the product to make an informed choice.
ordinary products are so good and they work wonders! i just wish they were a little cheaper
I knew about Hyaluronic Acid before but never really tried it on my skin, will have to test, seems really good!
Is this okay to serve as a primer, before putting on foundation??
I am always very eager to learn more about the ingredients I put on my skin. We are what we absorb and I believe that it is crucial to become more mindful about our beauty products. I highly appreciate your effort to give a little bit more info on the product. Thank you
Thank you for the education on the labels! I am guilty of not reading them properly. I do know about Hyaluronic Acid but I believe it’s the first time that I am seeing the B5 combo.
Useful information with genuine product, and explaining deeply with correct directions.
I use this hyaluronic acid every day and it makes such a difference to my skin! I can have patches of dryness and in the last few years I’ve started to feel the effects of aging on my skin, this keeps it plump and hydrated!
I have the Ordinary to try soon. I’ve heard so many good things about them and I love anything moisturizing.
