If you are looking for a fantastic skincare product that produces great results, NOW Solutions Hyaluronic Acid Firming Serum might be a great product might work for you!

Product Details

Created by NOW Solutions, Hyaluronic Acid Firming Serum focuses on the fine lines and wrinkles causes by the reduction of elastin levels that occurs because of aging. More concentrated than the typical anti-aging cleanser, this solution is meant to be applied directly to the problem areas of the skin: the forehead, areas around the mouth, and the eyes.

As the name of the product states, its main active ingredient is hyaluronic acid, which NOW Solutions claims stimulates collagen and improves the elasticity of skin. We need to do more research about this ingredient and other ingredients in the product if we want to determine whether or not it will be effective.

Ingredients

Aloe Vera Leaf Gel is very hydrating, which reduces the appearance of aging. It makes skin appear brighter and healthier. It also causes cells to regenerate.

Hyaluronic Acid is an acid that regulates hydration for the skin, which has the effects of moisturizing and providing protection.

Green Tea Extract has amazing levels of antioxidants that help to protect the skin and also improve the appearance of aging.

Algae Extract moisturizes the skin as well, which makes fine lines appear smaller.

Price and Availability

For 1oz of Hyaluronic Acid Firming Serum, you will pay around $15, making it a very good bargain for a skincare product. It looks as though it is only available online, however, meaning that shipping and handling will be additional costs.

Overall Impression:

Even though the ingredients listed above might sound great, a lot of the Hyaluronic Acid Firming Serum formula is pretty useless. The first several are just fillers that offer no benefit for the skin at all. Most of the rest are extracts, and studies have shown that plant derivatives cannot permeate the epidermal layer of the skin, meaning they are not going to have any kind of effect on the collagen production or long term elasticity of the skin.

The primary active ingredient – hyaluronic acid—is the most misleading part of this serum. When injected into the skin, it has been proven to be effective in all the ways listed, but there is no evidence that it is effective when applied topically. The soluble collagen in the product is also ineffective. When the collagen is broken down into small enough fragments to permeate the skin, the molecule fragments are then too small to integrate with the skin’s own collagen.

Because of these reasons, we believe that you won’t see a lot of improvement in your skin from using this product and we would not recommend it.
