The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (with Ceramides), Multi-Depth Hydration Serum for Plumper, Smoother Skin

I’ve been using this hyaluronic acid consistently and it’s been a great addition to my routine. What works really well is the hydration and my skin feels noticeably more plump and moisturized, and it gives a healthy, smooth look without feeling heavy or sticky. I’ve also seen improvement in overall skin tone, which was a nice bonus. The dropper is another win since it makes dispensing the product easy, controlled, and mess-free. A little goes a long way, so it feels like a great value for the price. As for what doesn’t work, I honestly don’t have any real complaints. It does exactly what I expect a hyaluronic acid to do, and I haven’t experienced irritation or pilling when layering with other products. This is a great option for anyone looking for an affordable, effective hydrating serum, especially if you want something simple that plays well with the rest of your skincare routine. It’s especially good for normal to dry skin or anyone wanting a more plump, even appearance without spending a lot. Overall, this has performed really well for me and feels comparable to more expensive serums I’ve tried. I’d definitely repurchase and recommend it if hydration and value are your priorities. I LOVE ORDINARY PRODUCTS!!!

This serum is a great way to add hydration to your skincare routine. It feels lightweight and absorbs quickly, and my skin feels softer and more hydrated after using it. I like applying it to slightly damp skin before moisturizer for extra hydration. It layers well with other products and doesn’t feel sticky. Great affordable option if you’re looking for a simple hyaluronic acid serum.

I hate my hands. No, genuinely. I always have. But once I stopped being twenty, I hated them even more. Genetics plus winter conditions turned my hands into something truly upsetting, and I was not emotionally prepared for that stage of life yet. I originally bought this for my face, and it works great there. Then one day I had a thought. What if I tried this on my hands? Two months later, my hands are still subject to genetics, but I am no longer embarrassed by them, which honestly feels like a miracle. I use this morning and night. I put a small amount on the backs of my hands, rub it in, then seal it with a shea butter lotion. I have never had a reaction. It dries quickly. It is a bit sticky at first, then slightly tacky, and then it absorbs completely. It dries clear, leaves no residue, and does not interfere with touching things or living your life. The results are genuinely impressive. My hands stay hydrated, they glow, and they look plumper. The wrinkly “I’m freezing and somehow also beef jerky” look I was rocking has left the building. The effects actually last, too, which matters. For the price, this is outstanding. Hyaluronic acid really is your skin’s best friend. There is no scent, no grease, and no nonsense. I am a huge fan of this brand overall, and the Hyaluronic Acid with B5 is an absolute staple for me now. If your skin has personally offended you, try this.

I’ve been using The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 daily, and it’s become a staple in my routine. The texture is lightweight and slightly viscous, but it spreads easily and absorbs well when applied to damp skin. It gives my skin an immediate plump, hydrated look without feeling heavy or greasy. Fine lines look softer, and my skin feels smoother and more comfortable throughout the day. The added B5 really helps boost hydration and keeps my skin from feeling tight, especially during colder or drier weather. For the price, it’s hard to beat. Simple ingredients, solid performance, and no unnecessary fragrance or irritation. If you’re looking for an affordable hydration boost that layers well with other products, this is a great option.

I am 49 years old with mature skin that is very dry and prone to rosacea. My forehead has some fine lines, and around the corners of my mouth. I live in the Northeast where it's cold and the indoor heat is dry. I finished the bottle, so Ive given the product ample time to work. This product is the second one in my line up. I apply it after COSRX Snail Mucin, and my face is wet. Hyaluronic acid is a humectant, so I make sure to add water. The fine lines in my forehead disappear, and the lines around my mouth are less pronounced. They do return after about 12 hours, but theyre not nearly as deep as they were. My rosacea isn't nearly as temperamental or noticeable as it was before, and at times I can barely see it. My skin is a lot more firm, supple, soft and most importantly, hydrated. What I love most is my skin glows. That is quite an achievement for someone with very dry skin. I dont breakouts, nor do I have any scarring or hyperpigmentation, so I can speak on those areas of concern. I like that there is no scent or color, and the consistency is thick like any other Hyaluronic acid. It doesn't pill, plays well with my other products and sits under makeup beautifully. I find that its a very effective product and I just purchased my second bottle. I do have other products in my skincare line up, but there has been a vast improvement since adding this. It works a lot better than other serums that were a lot more expensive.

This ointment is very light and goes on very easily unfortunately it is not sticky and does not leave my skin shiny as it seems to be absorbed really quickly. There is no discernible scent to me so does not aggravate asthma. My skin feels very soft after application. Unfortunately, I am not sure how long it will last as the bottle is very small and it seems to take quite a bit to moisturize my very dry skin. The price is good with the caveat of how long it will last. I have only been using it for a week so cannot speak to any improvement of wrinkles - so certainly not an overnight fix - if there even issuch a thing. I will likely buy again when used up.

Love, love, love this serum. It is so hydrating and smoothing. I don’t have sensitive skin, but it’s so gentle and it leaves my skin feeling glowy, supple, and moisturized. It’s a great price and I have noticed my skin feeling healthier and softer since the first time I used it. I use it twice a day when I wash my face in the morning/evening. Love it!

So yeah, this stuff is AMAZING. I use tretinoin and I have to be extremely careful about what I use to put moisture and hydration back into my skin. I use this in the morning and my tret at night, because if I use this with my tret, my skin gets red and irritated. Hyaluronic acid attracts water, which isn't good if you just put on tret. You want dry or oil-moisturized skin. This stuff pretty much disappears my crepey neck skin and it hydrates under makeup all day. I use a moisturizer with urea after I put this on to cut the stickiness, as it is a bit sticky with all the water it's attracting to your skin.
