La Roche Posay® Hyalu B5 Serum Reviews

The serum arrived in the telltale La Roche Blue and White packaging, a 30ml bottle, and a separate dropper. I have been trying various serums over the last 2 years and have been going back to my old trusted brand every time.

The product stated that it was Anti-aging concentrate, repairing, replumping for sensitive skin. The serum is to be applied to the face and neck and the watery gel texture was pretty light and spreads easily. It took me a few tries before I was able to drop enough on my hand to cover my face and neck and did not dry sticky at all.

You don’t need a lot of product so it lasts a long time I have always had pretty sensitive skin and with the constant use of water and hand sanitisers over the Covid period I have been left with pretty dry skin. The onset of winter also brings about heat from the air conditioners which instantly dries out my skin.

As my skin is very sensitive (psoriasis prone) and many products can irritate and inflame my skin, this product did not lead to any irritation which is plus point.

I found that the serum left my skin feeling plump and definitely replenished my skin. The product had quite a strong fragrance, but not overpowering. I do think over a period of time using the product it will improve the condition overall, a week did not show much of a difference.

The bottle was easy to close with the dropper and I disposed of the bottle’s original cap. The packaging went to the bin with the cap. Bit of a shame to fill the landfill.

Apply morning and evening on clean face and neck and follow up with moisturiser. I have been using the product twice a day and as with most serums this will last long.

Price wise $69-$75 depending on where you buy is in line with other serum I have used before but for me did not have the same benefits.

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 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.

Really impressed so far.. you know how i can tell - when you accidentally swipe the wrong way on Instagram.. I am not met with shock and horror at the vision I am met with on the camera!!

Through lockdown I was a bit slack with some of my skincare routines - I tried to use up some old more natural based products etc and I also couldn't just walk into the store and grab a replacement so my skin was a clean slate for some testing.

The one thing I can rely on LRP for besides their usual blue and white packaging is that they have a range for most skin types and sensitive skin types! I rarely have to do patch tests with LRP as they are often developed for people with sensitive skin in mind.

So this is a dropper bottle and they haven't specified how much too use so I asked and 2-3 drops is all that's needed after cleansing, before moisturising in the PM and/or AM.

They say this is suitable for sensitive skin.. but also combination skin.. if you have acne I think they recommend trying a different range of theirs. I have combo skin and no acne so my skin was a perfect wee tester and soaked this up.

Its a clear runny gel like serum that you have to work quickly with to massage in as it is very easily absorbed. But it also isnt too runny - the dropper has a fairly large hole so it isn't thick but it also isn't too runny. I actually dont like the dropper too much you have to work quite fast but that is my only complaint!

It is quite perfumed but it doesn't last long on the skin and I also see the fragrance is a hypoallergenic fragrance so that's another plus. The ingredients list looks ok there is a small % alcohol but they have given good enough reason for this to be there when asked. I simply have not had great results from natural products that claim to do the equivalent so I generally do have to stick to wrinkle serums and creams that are less natural based.. sad but true for me. As with sensitive skin the choices are limited,

In terms of effectiveness I am not expecting a face lift in a jar but it is very good at delivering from a jar what they promise! I love they haven't stated reversal or wrinkles be gone etc they are very realistic! My skin appearance is not as shocking. My scold and frown lines are one huge indicator of this. They say fine lines look reduced , skin replumped, replenish skins moisture etc.... And it does this - it almost fills in the gaps and adds a moisture barrier that softens the look of lines and wrinkles. My skin is softer and I feel like my cell turnover has increased as its got more moisture and softness probably from being looked after.

Test it out at life pharmacy - they are really good with their range of testers now we are back at level 1.

Another winner LRP.

Another gorgeous product from La Roche-Posay. I’d been eyeing up this serum but wasn’t sure about spending $70 on it. I’m still not sure it’s quite worth the price when there are other serums around for far less which I love almost as much. I say almost, because this one has some huge advantages over the others. Not only is it a gorgeous gel that feels velvety and smells delicate and expensive, but you don’t need a lot. In the last couple of weeks of use, I have barely used maybe an 8th of the bottle. And, the best part of all, it has an instant plumping effect. After I apply it, my skin texture looks more even, fine lines seem less, and my skin is plump and healthy looking. I have found that I am still requiring a moisturiser at least at night as my skin was a little dry with the serum alone, but it feels so decadent in doing so, and gives my skin an extra boost and glow. This is also excellent with the Vitamin B5 for acne or hormonal spots. La Roche-Posay is my fav favourite skin care brand, and this product has lived up to my expectations.

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.

I am always a little dubious when the advertising on a product claims "re-plumping" and "suitable for all skin types". In my experience, this is seldom the case. I was pleasantly surprised to try this product and find that after the first day I could actually see a difference! The bottle is nicely presented and comes with a little tear dropper for easy application. The serum is slightly slimy and I quickly learnt that you only need enough for a thin layer when using it through the day. The product has no scent which I usually like to have a pleasant scent to my products but I didn't mind as this was the first layer to my skin care regime. The product sat nicely underneath my foundation and regular day cream. But what I loved the most was that my skin ACTUALLY looked brighter. After about 5 days, the finer lines around my eyes and forehead had improved. I've even had a makeup free day this week!! I am excited to be permanently adding this serum to my regime as I am convinced that it did what it said it would.

La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Hyaluronic Acid Anti-Ageing Serum 30ml

I got the opportunity to review this serum and OMG I'm in love , I have tried other serums on the market however this one hands down is the best! is a bit pricey retailing at around $70 dollars you pay for quality !

a couple of drops morning and night face and neck and your skin feel healthy , plumped ,soft one application for me was enough to see how my skin was feeling hydrated , I highly recommended if your skin feel dull and tired is suitable for all skin types and also is hypoallergenic .

You won't be disappointed a drop dispenser is included to help you distribute just the exact amount so you don't loose any of the serum .

I use quite a few La Roche Posay products (cleanser, moisturiser, sun screen, etc) so I was excited to be invited to trial this new product. After using it twice a day for the past couple weeks, I have to say it has gone above and beyond my expectations and is definitely my favourite La Roche Posay product to use!

The formula is a gel which makes it feel like you are tons of product - after about a week I felt like I would have used about a third of the bottle but checked and the bottle still looked practically full (thank goodness!). It goes on quite thick and sticky but absorbs very well and left my face looking so full and plump - in a good way. The serum leaves my skin feeling moisturised throughout the day and, when I apply it at night, I wake up to smooth, plump skin. I've found myself going completely foundation free most days; my skin feels so good and smooth.

I honestly can not say enough good things about this product - I didn't notice any bad side effects and my skin was happy with the product immediately (no breakouts or redness) - and will definitely be adding it into my skin care regime!
