Good product

I've been using this product for a few months and I like the results. It's not as good as the HA5 but the price is right!

My go to hydrating gel

I have a fairly dry skin, and I use this morning and night as part of my routine. It soaks in and provides the hydration my skin needs.

Order of application makes a difference

I really like this hydrating product. It's a nice alternative to Skinmedica's HA5 product because is doesn't lead with a silicone in its ingredients list. In fact, it is silicone-free! I don't object to silicones, as they have smoothing and occlusive properties that can be welcome, but so many skin care products have them. I don't like to layer silicone upon silicone. And this product does have two kinds of hyaluronic acid, instead of five, but that's okay. I imagine it has a small and large molecular version of each. Anyway, it's not totally clear as to which order to apply this product if you use multiple ones. Best I can tell, apply this after your serum(s) and before your moisturizer. That said, I tried applying it before "Good Genes All in One," and it pilled. To me, Good Genes is both a serum and moisturizer, so I thought it should go on last, as it feels to me like a moisturizer. But it pilled over this Hydrating Complex, even though I waited about a half hour. So next time, I put the Hydrating Complex on AFTER the Good Genes. No pilling. I don't know if that's the correct order of application, but pilling is a deal breaker for me, having to do with foundation. So right or wrong order, I'm set!

A Must Have

This product is amazing! It hydrates the skin without making it shiny or oily. My skin looks and feels so much better since using it. A must have—especially during the winter months.

SkinMedica Hydrating Complex

Once the weather turns cold and the air much drier, my skin becomes very dry. I used SkinMedica's Hydrating Complex to combat the effect of the cold and dry air. It works really well, especially with SkinMedica's Rejuvenative Moisturizer.

Amazing Product

With a more dry and mature skin I just never thought this product would do what many claim to do! But it really works!!! It hydrates your skin and keeps it hydrated throughout the day. With make-up or not, my skin looks fresh and hydrated daily. Surprised but so pleased!!

Good product

After using SkinMedica HA5, I wanted to see how my skin responded to this. It's been good, but once I’ve used it up, I’m going back to HA5 which for my skin, it does a better job.

SkinMedica hydration

I am very disappointed in this product. No hydration whatsoever. Feels like I'm putting water on my face. SkinMedica is a good company, so I'm shocked at the performance of this very expensive serum.

moisturizing

This is a gel moisturizer, which is not really what I was expecting but it IS moisturizing in an odd way. It almost absorbs yet it sits on top of other products (retinol, c-serums, brightener) so it feels like I've put on a light peel mask. Then it dries. Then I feel like I need more moisture. However, if you follow the Hydrating Complex with a creamy moisturizer, like Dermal Repair Cream, that weird, almost moisturized but not quite satisfactory sensation goes away and the product probably does its job of binding moisture to the skin. I can't tell if this particular product is doing anything fantastic in and of itself but I will say that all SM products work extremely well together and are absolutely amazing. I'll probably buy this again in the future but maybe not on a regular basis as part of my regimen. I'm thinking probably mostly in the winter time.

wonderful product

I have used this product for quite a while. It is great alone or in combination with moisturizers. It leaves the skin feeling smooth and hydrated.

Was ok

I am a big skinmedica fan, they make some amazing products that I couldn'' live without. This didn't do much for me though and I don't think I will repurchase. Didn't like the way this felt.
