INCI: Aqua, Sodium hyaluronate

Essentially Natural Hyaluronic Serum 1% Solution is a ready-to-use water-based serum made with high molecular weight sodium hyaluronate. It is used as a daily hydration step or as an add-in ingredient for suitable water-based DIY formulas. High molecular weight hyaluronic acid is valued for surface hydration and a smoother skin feel, rather than a rich oily finish. This is a pre-made serum solution, not a dry powder ingredient.

♡ Why we love it: This serum makes hyaluronic acid use simple for both direct skincare use and light formulation work. It is easy to layer, easy to blend into compatible water-based products and suits routines that want hydration without added oiliness.

This product is certified: Vegan and Beauty Without Cruelty.

I've combined this with frankinsense hydrosol,

I've combined this with frankinsense hydrosol, and I love it. It's a great face spray :)

You can really feel and see the difference in your skin. I really love the products my skin has never looked better ✨️

Hyaluronic Serum

My skin feels plumper and smoother since I've started using a combination of your amazing products! You have a client for life! Thank you so much!

Serum

I am very pleased with this product. I wanted an all natural toner, so i bought this with Witch hazel hydrasol (non alcohol),and my skin firmness amd elasticity has imoroved, i only have been usising this for 3 weeks, and i wont go back. I am prone to acne, and since i switched to all natural products its been a game changer. I also purchased the huylaron serum 1% and i love it. Its smooth and just glides on after i spray my face with the hydrasols. Thanks so much!! I also got a wheatgerm oil as sample. I have been using it as a night oil, and thats been so nice. So when my sample is done. I will purchase a bigger bottle.

Great product

For now I am using it in my geranium hydrosol as a toner. My skin feels soft and smooth. I am yet to try it as a stand along product.

Too thick and gooey like a glycerine/castor oil mix

Not a great texture. Too thick and gooey, I've broken out like a teenager....all other products are great but this does not feel like hyaluronic acid serum, more like a castor oil and glycerine mix

Good morning Natasha,

I'm so sorry to hear that you haven’t had a great experience with the Essentially Natural Hyaluronic Serum 1% Solution (HMW)—this is certainly not the kind of experience we’d ever want for you when using the products we sell.

I can assure you that the serum is composed of Aqua (Water) and Sodium Hyaluronate (high molecular weight), as stated on our website. That said, if you’d like further peace of mind, I’d be more than happy to send you the Certificate of Analysis for the product so you can review the full breakdown yourself.

When it comes to skincare, we completely understand that every skin type reacts differently. Serums can sometimes be hit or miss, and while we always hope a product will work well, it’s not uncommon for certain ingredients to not agree with everyone’s skin.

I truly hope this brings a bit of reassurance, and please do reach out if you have any questions or would like us to send through the analysis documents—we’re here and happy to help.

Warmest regards,
Essentially Natural Team

Best thing since sliced bread

I'm 65 and get compliments all the time as my skin is absolutely beaitiful. Natural Essentials could not do it without you. I introduce you to all my family and friends, they're in love with your products!!

HYDROSOL ANTI-AGING SERUM

I recently purchased all the required ingredients for the "Ultimate Hyaluronic Acid Serum" and the "Vitamin C Serum with Hyaluronic Acid", as per your recipe on your blog: https://essentiallynatural.co.za/blogs/natural-face-care/luxury-serums-for-anti-aging-and-problem-skin

I chose a hydrosol serum formula, because I find oil-based serum's too heavy for my skin, even during winter. I'm absolutely blown away by how amazing my skin is feeling! Both the formula's absorb SUPER quick, and there's no heaviness or residue left on my skin. Only 2 weeks in, and my wrinkles are softer and not so deep, my skin is SUPER hydrated and glowing and I'm already seeing a difference!

I begin my regime by cleaning my skin with Rose Water, and then apply the Vit-C Serum, followed by the Ultimate Hyaluronic Acid Serum. I do this twice a day, even though you suggest only using the Vit-C Serum once a week.

I bought a pipette bottle for the Vit-C Serum, and use 2 drops, and I use a Serum Pump Bottle for the Ultimate Hyaluronic Acid Serum, and use one pump.

The recipe was really easy to follow, and took absolutely no time at all to create these little bottles of youth-elixir's!

Loving the feel of my skin

Initially, I had purchased this to be a part of a serum, but I am using it as a stand-alone product after cleansing and toning.
I am finding my skin is glowing and feels very moisturised.

A Great Beauty Addition

I have only just started using this serum after I have toned my skin, and I am loving the look of my skin.
After the dry winter, this is a great help and will be even more so when the next winter rolls around.

Hyaluronic Serum

My skin is feeling so smooth. I wish I started long ago

Amazing product

This is an amazing product that makes my skin feel like a baby's and the price is a real bonus. The speed that the products are delivered in is like magic. Great product, great service and great price, an absolute winning combination.

Hyaluronic Serum

Amazing product! Very hydrating. It is a nice thick consistency, however only a small drop is needed as it generously spreads throughout the skin and moisturises thoroughly. It is also lightweight as it covers the skin and does not leave an oily feeling. Wonderful product! Would definitely recommend!

Great product

Used as a gliding gel with my derma pen and as a daily serum

Serum

The serum is perfect for the klmy skin

Seamless Service and Superior Skincare: A Winning Combo!

I had a seamless experience from order to delivery with Essentially Natural. As a bonus, I was gifted a Grape Seed Oil to test. But the product I’m absolutely ecstatic about is the Essentially Natural Hyaluronic Acid Serum, 1% Solution (High Molecular Weight). This serum is a game-changer for my skin, playing a crucial role in protecting, stabilizing, and plumping at the cellular level. Its incredible ability to hold water makes it an efficient moisturizer, significantly enhancing skin hydration and lubrication.

We love it for its fabulous skin-plumping and hydrating effects, leaving your skin feeling dewy and looking glowing!

Wonderful product

Just love the hyaluronic acid.
It gives my skin extra hydration.
Perfect to add to my face oils or to use neat.

Best Hyaluronic acid serum

I use this Serum clean on my skin every morning. Really helps with hydration and my wrinkles look less visible. I apply moisturizer after the Serum. And rose water as a toner.

Serum excellence

I could feel a difference in softness on my face within a day. My face feels hydrated, soft, smooth and the fine lines are no longer so visible.

Potion of plumpness

This serum makes my skin feel so hydrated and plump. I add it to everything I can - masks, hydrosols, etc. It is such a versatile ingredient and offers so many benefits that I can't imagine my skincare routine without it.

It really works!

Love this - it really does make ones face feel fresher. Use this in combination with either Frankincense or Rose Geranium hydrosol. Will definitely get this again.

Natural Hyaluronic Serum

10/10! Mix it with face cream or the Frankincense Hydrosol. Def on my Birthday and Christmas Wish List for 2024!
