There might not be a way to turn back time but there is, thankfully, a way to prevent and even reverse the effects of ageing on skin: anti-ageing serums.
Not just any serum, anti-ageing serums are formulated to combat ageing effects like skin’s volume loss, fine lines and wrinkles, and dehydration. Even better than anti-ageing creams, these serums pack a whole lot of active ingredients to really renew your tired skin.
The best news? We’ve stumbled upon an anti-ageing serum that effectively works to re-plump the skin for a radiant, more youthful glow. It’s the La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum, and we invited 11 of our readers to try it out for themselves.
Pssst! Spoiler alert: The reviewers have given the product a glowing four out of five-star rating, with almost all of them experiencing plumper skin!
About La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum
Formulated with two pure hyaluronic acids, the La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum is an anti-ageing serum that hydrates and re-plumps the skin. It also contains vitamin B5 to help the skin to repair itself. Yes, that means stronger, healthier skin.
Also, if there’s one thing we dread most about ageing skin, it would be the visible appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. La Roche-Posay knows it, which is why it uses Madecassoside, an extract from the healing herb Centella Asiatica, to help soothe and firm the skin as well as fill in wrinkles.
As if all that hydrating, re-plumping, and repairing benefits aren’t enough, the serum is also infused with La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water. The spring water is renowned for soothing the skin and reducing skin irritation – apply the serum onto your face and your skin will feel calmer and more refreshed.
Sounds too good to be true? We thought so too, which is why we put it to the test.
Writer’s review of La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum
Even in my 20s, I have already noticed that my skin has lost some of its elasticity, resulting in fine lines in the areas under my eyes. So, when I was asked to try the La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum, I was more than happy to do so to find out what it would do for my skin.
Upon receiving the La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum, I pumped a generous amount onto my palm and spread the product all over my face. The serum has a gel-like consistency and applied smoothly over the skin, leaving my skin feeling immediately more hydrated.
I changed up my routine a few days later by patting the product into my skin until it was absorbed, as well as following up with a moisturiser. I discovered that the effects I noticed the next morning were much more pronounced, and my skin felt plumper and fresher.
It seemed like my skin also had a healthier glow, though I didn’t manage to observe a huge difference in the fine lines around my eyes. To cover all bases, I also passed the serum to my mother to try, and it worked more noticeably for her: she felt that her skin was firmer and fine lines reduced.
Overall, the La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum works to keep my skin supple, and I’ll definitely be keeping it in my skincare routine.
