La Roche Posay® Hyalu B5 Serum Reviews

I loved this product - it does exactly what it says it will and my skin definitely felt hydrated, despite it being winter where I would usually move to a heavier day moisturiser so my skin doesn't feel dry all day. I genuinely believe that using this product before moisturising has stopped my skin feeling dry later in the day. The dropper is fantastic - easy, no mess and portion controlled. In terms of absorption it was quick meaning you didn't have to wait around before applying moisturiser. Really good product. I popped it in my handbag for a 'refresh' if I needed it during the day. Too easy.

Like all La Roche-Posay products this one performs as it should. There is something about these cosmetics there Made in France! The French really seem to have skincare, beauty and fragrance down to a fine art and so does La Roche-Posay.

The Hyalu B5 Serum is the perfect addition to any skincare routine. This preparation is for after cleansing and pre-moisturiser. The more you use it the better your skin responds. Hyaluronic Acid attracts moisture to your skin and keeps it hydrated, this in turn produces a plumped and rejuvenated skin surface. When your skin looks good, everything else looks good ie the makeup you apply on top.

Hyalu B5 Serum works hard to keep your skin plumped and primed. Skin appears more youthful, texture is firmer and glowing after use. This product absorbs easily into freshly cleansed skin and has a pleasant aroma. The texture is light and easy to apply all over your face and neck.

This is a great product for over 35's, people with drier skin or just as an anti-aging prevention/intervention. A must have for beautiful looking and feeling skin.

The packaging of the product is simple as is the application. The bottle is a generous size- I'd prefer if the serum had a pump top. I find that easier to control and ensures you get all of the product when it comes time to replace.

The consistency of the serums quite rich and a little definitley goes a long way. One application My skin felt smooth and plumper. I apply mine straight after having a shower and cleansing my face. Its a good product to use after a shower when your skin has that 'tight' feeling.

The smell of the product is really pleasant so it gives you that feeling of having a little bit of luxury

I think my somewhat sensitive, temperamental skin just loves this brand! I received this to trial, and to be honest a little weary. I’m not the biggest user of serums but really need to start using them more. And this is one I’ll definitely continue using.

The good: it smells really good, refreshing and revitalising. It’s not too runny nor too thick so it is easy to apply without being messy. It comes in a great size - I’ve been using it everyday since I received it and feel like I’ve barely made a dent in it. I love the packaging - it feels premium and clean. And my skin feels nice and soft after applying. The best thing: it has not irritated my skin at all; not even redness after applying like I get with even basic moisturisers.

However, I haven’t noticed any difference in my skin. This could just be not using it for long enough or I just haven’t noticed anything. But considering it doesn’t irritate my skin and it’s nice to apply I will keep it up to see if it betters my skin in the long run. I would say don’t use it expecting an overnight result as this may not happen for you as it hasn’t for me. But it is a nice product that I don’t mind using longer term to see results.

I love this product! I have very dry, sensitive skin that reacts to a lot of products, and I find most serums make my skin worse. Not this one this. After the first use, my skin felt so much more hydrated and within a few days they had been a huge improvement. The appearance of my skin seemed calmer and not so red and it didn't feel tight. I will definitely use this again.

I spent awhile reading the bottle and packaging trying to figure out what I was meant to do with this, all I could find was it said to apply to face and neck. So I used a few drops all over and rubbed it in with my hands like a moisturiser. Someone else may have a better application technique but this worked for me.

I suffer from quite dry and sensitive skin, worse so in the winter, and for that this is amazing. My skin feels soft and smooth after using and there has been no reactions at all. I haven't seen a reduction in fine lines but that may take longer to come. There isnt really a smell, the serum is thick and opaque, almost white in colour. It is easily absorbed without leaving any greasy residue. All in all a great product.

I have been so impressed with this brand for its gentle yet effective formulas. I was so excited getting a trial for this product.

I really like the focus on natural ingredients and simple ingredients that are great for sensitive skin like mine.

The packaging is simple, sleek and modern. I like the white and stylish look. This little package comes with a dropper that you use to apply the serum.

I just the cleanser and moisturiser from this range and my skin is the most moisturiser it ever has been.

The serum is a nice lovely formula. I apply it both morning and night. It’s been a great addition to my skincare routine.

My skin feels very healthy these days. It is moisturised and hydrated. This serum is a nice product, even for those with sensitive skin.

A five star product.

I love the chic packaging and the serum itself is such a good consistency, I’m used to very thin water-like serums or very thick ones. This one got the consistency perfect, not too thick, not too runny, also there’s no strong smell, there’s definitely a scent, small amount of fragrance, but so light and faint, can’t even notice it really. This serum feels very nice, it instantly smooths and plumps up my skin, my face was so soft I couldn’t stop touching it, it reminded me of the time I first tried a silicone primer. So I checked the ingredients and there’s silicone in this serum, probably to give you this instant smoothing sensation, so you’d think it works wonderfully. Not sure why a serum needs silicone in the formulation, it sure locks in moisture in the skin and protects from dirt and pollution, but definitely tricks us into thinking how fast it works in smoothing out our wrinkles when in fact it’s just filled out with silicone. It doesn’t irritate my skin, doesn’t leave a sticky feeling behind and it doesn’t clog my pores, I definitely haven’t had any reaction to it, just smooth and hydrated skin. I even tried this without my usual night cream and my skin was still hydrated in the morning, I usually can’t skip creams with my other serums. La Roche Posay sure knows how to formulate nice products that don’t irritate, I’m still a tad disappointed in the addition of dimethicone, as it tricks us into thinking how it works instantly. Well, it doesn’t, I can’t see any effects that would last or a huge difference in my skin yet after about 2 weeks of using it. Nice enough product, but definitely not worth the price tag. There are serums out there with no filler ingredients that are cheaper. However it works beautifully as a primer(thanks to dimethicone) and this is so good under my foundation, I don’t get any dry spots around my chin and I never look cakey. It’s best used on top of moisturiser when used as a primer! This would have been an instant repurchase for me if the ingredients would’ve been better, as I really enjoy using it both at night and under my makeup in the morning.

This serum has been a delight to discover and use.

A few drops is enough to adequately hydrate and smooth the skin, and skin really does look improved right away! There's no pilling under other products which I do struggle with sometimes with products with Hyaluronic Acid.

I like the fragrance, its not overpowering and does disappear relatively quickly.

I think the price is more than fair and I will be recommending this product to my friends!

I was lucky enough to trial the La Roche Posay Hyalu B5 serum. I have fairly sensitive skin and have been incorporating more anti-aging products into my skincare regime so was interested to see how it went, although I don't have the obvious wrinkles or loss of volume the product appears to be marketed at.

I love the product packaging, it comes in a blue glass bottle with ab dropper applicator, allowing you to hygienically dispense a small or larger amount of product.

The formula itself is a lightweight, clear serum which I found very heavily fragranced. It actually reminds me of a perfume I have owned and is a nice scent, however I prefer my skincare to have a more subtle scent as I don't like unnecessary extras in them.

I applied a couple of squeezes morning and night to my face and chest. The product felt instantly hydrating when applied and absorbed fairly quickly. Afterwards my skin did feel very hydrated and 'plump'.

While my trial did show that based on my skin type the serum met it's hydrating claims and I would recommend it to those wanting a hydrating serum with any skin type, I personally wouldn't purchase it for myself as I found the fragrance just too strong for my liking, but I would use it again if it was ever reformulated.
