Elleda 50x Strength Hyaluronic Acid Review

Summer in Phoenix is tough. Through the spring, my skin looked great, but since the summer’s come round it’s looking sallow, porous, and desperate for love seemingly no matter how much I moisturize.

I needed a boost, but what could I do? After all, let’s be real: I’ve tried every product under the sun.

Plus, it’s got a 7/10 average on Total Beauty!

The lightly scented Skin Genesis serum is on the watery side, but applies smoothly and soaks into skin with ease. A little serum goes a long way – don’t overapply or you’ll be cleaning up with a washcloth.

Skin serum and facial serum#TheSkinProject has led me to another interesting topic: skin serums. Serums are an interesting addition to the skincare arsenal: packed with active ingredients and eliminating moisture-retaining fillers like petrolatum, they are a great resource for doing some heavy lifting in skin repair. Serums’ super-slim texture helps them sink into the skin quickly and get to work!
