InstaNatural Hyaluronic Acid Serum #InstaNatural
Hello, Fireflies!
Do you remember when I told you about my deliciously-scented hair? That hair masque, by InstaNatural, was pretty amazing. At the time I was sent that, I was offered a chance to try their Hyaluronic Acid Serum, too.
Ok, it's another serum, I hear ya. First of all, you can't have too many serums! Where else are you going to find a concentrated dose of all the things your skin loves? They also play well with toners and moisturizers, so you can use the products that you know work well on your skin.
I'm loving this ingredient list. So many things I recognize and understand are good for my skin - Aloe, Witch Hazel, Jojoba Oil, Vitamin C, Green Tea..and it's formulated without alcohol or parabens, and it's cruelty-free.
The texture of this serum reminds me a lot of one of its ingredients - aloe vera. It has a very nice viscosity to it - look at that bubble!- but it absorbs quickly, with no greasiness or tacky residue.
It smells very faintly, but, like the masque, it smells so good. It has a fresh, herbal quality to it - not medicinal at all. With so many choices out there for hyaluronic serums, the details matter. When I'm putting on a serum, it's important to me that it feels and smells nice, in addition to working well.
I do think it works well, too. My skin has few wrinkles, and the texture is soft and plump. I'm even getting my husband to use serums now that he's got his CPAP mask and it's drying out his face every night.
As of the time of this writing, this serum is on sale at Amazon.com down from $49.95 to $16.75 for 2 oz. No code needed, and it ships free with Amazon Prime.
What do you look for in a serum?
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

DeleteI love Hyaluronic acid in my skincare! Crazy how much moisture it delivers!
ReplyDeleteMy skin texture has really improved since I've added HA to my regimen.
DeleteSounds like a great serum and hyaluronic acid is great in skincare too.
ReplyDeleteI just want to dip my whole body in it!
DeleteLove that it has hyaluronic acid, as well as green tea and Vit C!
ReplyDeleteI agree, saves me a step if it has both Vitamin C and HA.
DeleteI am a HUGE fan of anything hyaluronic in skincare. This sounds awesome and like I need to try it NOW!!
ReplyDeleteThis is in my faves of the serums I've tried, for sure.
DeleteRight now, I'm just getting into researching serums, so I don't have any outline of what I'm looking for. But I'm thankful for reviews like this to help me along the way!
ReplyDeleteThe lotions and potions are kind of the fun part of getting old, I think. So much to try.
DeleteI'm not a fan of drinking green tea but I love it in my serums.
ReplyDeleteIf it has enough sweetener, I'll drink almost anything... lol. A friend just introduced me to Tazo Coco Mint Mate' tea, and it's love.
DeleteHyaluronic acid is fantastic. My dry skin likes it muchly. Serums have become a necessity. Love them. :D
ReplyDeleteIt feels so magical to put this serum on and it just gets sucked in, and poof! gone.
DeleteGreen tea is perfect for my blemished skin!!!
ReplyDeletethat's good to know! I have such a problem with breakouts. NOT FAIR! I'M TOO OLD FOR PIMPLES!
DeleteHyaluronic acid is my favorite skincare ingredient!
ReplyDeleteA year ago, I couldn't even pronounce it, much less know I needed it. Now, I can't get enough!
DeleteMy skin responds really well to acids!
ReplyDeleteJust don't confuse Hyaluronic acid with Hydrochloric Acid... hahaha... geek humor... ha..h..mm.
DeleteI really love all of the instanatural products I've tried! Great review!
ReplyDeleteMe, too. That hair masque is DIVINE.
DeleteI love Hyaluronic Acid - it works so well for my skin and is one of my favorite skin care products. But, I have also been a huge fan of this brand and their products.
ReplyDeleteYour skin is so sensitive, that's saying something! I just washed my hair last night and used their hair masque. MMMMMMM.
DeleteI have become an HA addict. I take it systemically in NeoCell HA Blueberry Liquid and in Fish Collagen capsules. My vitamin C serums have HA in it, and I am trying out a new HA serum. I believe in it. My aesthetician told me I was one of the rare people who she works with who has well-hydrated skin, yay!! Glad you are enjoying this. Sounds like Instanatural is a great brand to try :)
ReplyDeleteYour skin looks great, so being well-hydrated is obviously important. I want to try taking it systemically, too.
DeleteSounds great and that's a great price!
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried any really expensive serums, but I am finding that getting effective HA doesn't have to break the bank!
DeleteI have to try it! Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how they spell it in Welsh.. I'm enjoying sharing your travelogue!
DeleteThanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the ingredients list of this serum plus it's on sale and that's a big discount! I agree, you can never have too many serums.
ReplyDeleteIt does tick a lot of the boxes for me - useful, works, sale!
DeleteAnother must try! I always make sure hyaluronic acid is in my skincare!
ReplyDeleteGotta keep that perfect skin you have as long as possible!
