Very good

Perfect product.

Disappointment

I have combination skin and while using this serum I felt that it did not give me the boost of hydration as I kind of expected. Nothing special, will not repurchase or recommend.

arwen

does the job

This is a good hydrating serum - does the job well and it has a very nice texture.

Serum Review

Expected more of this product. Although it hydrates it does not leave a moist after feeling. No smell at all. Something I didn't like. Will use, but not repurchase.

Ioana

Not worth it

It does what it does, gives you a boost of hydration but it is not a unique product, nor is it worth the price point at all. You could get a similar serum at your local drugstore and that for me does not make me want to repurchase.

jules

multipurpose serum

My go-to serum that only adds to one’s moisturiser benefits. I sometimes blend it with T.L.C at night, but also find it ok to be used solo, especially on days you don’t need much on your face. Size is great and will serve you well, as you’ll only need 2 tiny pumps of product to cover your face :)

Miya

Love this serum

Really nice, lightweight serum. I always mix in with the Protini moisturiser at night or use in the morning before my SPF. Love the ingredients and that you get 50ml of product instead of the standard 30ml for serum. <3 <3

Mimi

Great

Great for my oily/combination skin. Doesn’t cause breakouts or excessive shine. Skin feels nicely hydrated and soft.

On my 3rd bottle

Perfect for day time as an alternative to moisturiser. Sits well underneath make up as it’s light, doesn’t pill and doesn’t leave any sticky residue like lots of other hyaluronic serums I’ve tried. On application, it feels very refreshing. I agree with some other reviews here that say it literally feels like a cool drink of water for your face.

Good serum

It is a good serum, but considering the price point it might not be worth it.

Alexandra.

Okay.

It just doesn't do anything. It sinks in quickly and isn't sticky or anything, but no difference at all and I use this as a standalone moisturiser. I am 23 and my skin is normal to combination.

tenks

impressive

I am on a second purchase already, a light serum which is perfect for day time use. it doesn't aggravate my sensitive skin and absorbs perfectly.

Cecilia

Love it!

I use it together with my c firma serum in the morning and the Lala retro whipped cream, works great together!

Orsi

Amazing

Until the age of 22 I had pretty much perfect skin: baby soft, even skin tone, very rarely getting a spot. Then it all went downhill, hello adult acne. I've tried sooo many products since then, I think all combined I've spent a fortune - to no end. I was considering getting some proper laser treatments or medication, but then I saw Drunk Elephant was launching in the UK and I thought, one more try, and I ordered the Littles and A-Passioni. "Thankfully" not all products worked for me, otherwise I'd have a VERY expensive skin care routine. But the things that worked, oh my goodness they did WONDERS to my skin. These are the TLC and the B-Hydra serums along with A-Passioni. For the first time in four years I'm once again confident about my complexion. Yes, these products are expensive, but to me they are worth it if it means I have clear, bright and soft skin.

Abbie

Pretty good but overhyped

Got the mini of this in one of the bundles and I have to say I do like it for a extra boost of moisture under my normal moisturiser however I don't think it does enough to justify the price.

Katy

Great for oily skin

It's a really good Serum for oily dehydrated skin! I use it to mix in with my C-Firma in the morning a sometimes on its own in the evening for some extra hydration! Love it! Don't clog my pores and sinks right into the skin! Highly recommend!

EVA SHIE

Decent and smells good

I'm not sure it does a lot, but for the 50 ml the price is decent. I especially love the soap-bubble smell of it, reminds me of purity ^_^

pascale

Agréable - Pleasant

Bon sérum hydratant,sans plus ***** good moisturizing serum, no more

ERIALC

Decent hydrating serum

I got a 15ml as part of a set and I cocktail it with C-Firma every morning. I'd say it gets the job done but not particularly value for money where there are other brands at better price points with HA serums that give instant hydration. It's a gel texture that absorbs beautifully and leaves no residue. I wouldn't compare this to The Ordinary as the efficacy of this is better. I like the product but with so many options of well-priced HA serums, I wouldn't think this is the best value for money product.

Tony

Not sure...

It has a gel texture that transforms into a water burst and initially it feels very good but after a minute it feels like nothing. A hydrating toner (is&tree ,hada labo,klairs) will hydrate 10000 times better and help the absorption of other products and it's 30 euros cheaper...

Shay

Lovely

This is in a gel formula and the texture of it is so nice. I mix it with the marula oil and it is the best combo. I love this and will definitely buy again.

Frida

Good basic hydrating serum

I quite enjoyed this serum. It works well under makeup or mixed and layered with other products. The texture is like a thicker gel but it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave any tackiness or feeling of your skin being covered. I have quite dry skin so I like the added hydration

Marina

Not worth the money

Sinks in immediately but wasn’t hydrating at all.

Claclou

Good, hydrating serum but expensive

It does the job but for the price, I was expecting a bit more. Packaging is on point and really nice. But what matters is the content and, for me, it's just a basic, hydrating serum. BF really likes it though to calm the post-shave rash.

KG

Not impressed

I have an oily skin type and realised I should be looking for something to hydrate my skin as opposed to something that moisturises. I was really excited to try this as it seemed to be targeted at more dehydrated and oily skin types. But I just don’t understand this product! Firstly, it’s more a serum and cannot be used alone as it’s just a weird texture to put on the skin. Even when I mix this in with my moisturiser, it makes absolutely no difference. Although it doesn’t break me out, it doesn’t help either and the texture just doesn’t apply nicely to my textured, dehydrated and oily skin. Thought I had found something to finally work but looks like I’m still searching...

Zee

Best hydrating serum

Anyone reviewing this and giving it a low rating that’s using it as a stand alone moisturizer - you’re missing the point. Serums are used before moisturizers to help other products penetrate deeper into the skin and the hyaluronic content helps lock the moisture in. If you’re using it alone it’s not going to be able to do any of that.

Mariana

Ok hydrating serum

I found this serum to be just average. It does help lock in some other serums, it is non oily and very matte. However, I did not feel super moisturised with it. Bioderma Hydrabio Serum is much MUCH cheaper and does a great job - hydrates and plumps, and is super matte - no traces after appliyng.

Kimi

Would recommend to anybody

I use it twice daily and cannot imagine my skincare routine without it. It's very plumping and smoothing, you must put a moisturiser over it to get the best results. Products like SPF or makeup apply beautifully over it. Superior over all other hyaluronic acid serums.

liana

very helpful

I have been using this serum for almost three weeks. I have rosacea and my skin suffered a lot this lately - it was red and dehydrated. Using this has shown a great improvement.

Croskell

Not a moisturiser

This isn’t a moisturiser so don’t treat it as one. This will draw water up from the skin but as it isn’t a moisturiser it won’t lock the moisture in. So please use this with a moisturiser otherwise you may not hydrate your skin.

Raluk

Love it

I put it after my hyaluron (HO) and before my spf cream. For my normal - dry dehydrated skin this routine is perfect.

Sus

I really like it

I use the Drunk Elephant B-Hydra as a serum under LaLa or Protini and I mix it with C-Firma in the morning (followed by LaLa) - this makes my skin hydrated and glowing. I have normal/dry skin and mixing other DE products with the B-Hydra make my skin absorb the product-mix better! B-Hydra absorbs quickly - I like that.

SPH

Love the product - just overpriced

I'm 33 with dry/very dry sensitive skin. I recently switched my skincare to mostly Drunk Elephant products (and a few from Paula's Choice). I have seen significant improvement in dry patches and zero irritation. B-Hydra sinks into the skin immediately and has a relatively thin consistency without any stickiness. Mixes in perfectly with DE C-Firma and Protini. Whilst the product does deliver, £44 for a hydrating serum does feel excessive. It's the least 'exciting' DE product IMO and considering the whole range is expensive, if I had to give up one product, it would be B-hydra. Having said that, I'll probably repurchase when it's on promotion/discount.

Maria

always try in samples firstly

I have a mini version of this serum from Rescue Party Kit, and when I used it firstly, I thought that I will buy it in full-size, but after the second and third application a lot of clogged pores and small pimples occured on my cheeks, and when I tried to use it two weeks later, the effect was the same. So, I totally can't recommend this serum. If you think that you want this serum or any other Drunk Elephant item, please, buy it in minis to understand the effect and save the money!

WOW

Glass of icy water for the skin

Exactly what is said, a cold glass of water for the face. I first got B-Hydra in the mini set and didn't repurchase the full size for a while, I started to see my skin become less radiant and had to repurchase straight away, such a great product for my dry skin.

Sweet T

B-hydra serum

Do you have to use a moisturizer after the serum?

UrsulaTheAwesome

Fave out of all the DE products

At nearly €1 per ml it is expeeeeensive. But it does something remarkable to my skin and I am worth it. It doesn't irritate me and works well with my BodyShop Aloe creams. And I mix them because B-hydra is a humectant, and I need an occlusive to seal in all the moisture. Otherwise its not as useful.

Shipra

Overpriced.

Overpriced and over hyped for what it does. I have combination skin and it didn't moisturise much.. I have to wear a stronger moisturiser on top.. Not worth it.

T

Unnecessary

This does not really impart much hydration or moisture on its own, you’d have to use a lot of product for it to spread well which means this will run out very quickly. It is much better when mixed in with other drunk elephant serums and moisturisers. Therefore at £52 it’s not worth the money. You’d end up spending at least £110 to get the full benefit. You could buy any other silicone free Hyaluronic Serum at a reasonable price to do the same thing instead.

R

Know what you are paying for

This is the first Drunk Elephant product I purchased since it (finally) launched in the UK. I have to say it is quite expensive for a simple hydrating serum, but it is so pleasant to use as it does not get sticky like other hyaluronic acid products, so it’s perfect for laying. I would say the hydration effect is medium, so it’s suitable for oily to slightly dry skin types, really dry skin might need something “stronger” or layer other products. I would also suggest using a mist right before applying this, so that you don’t run out of it in a month and the hyaluronic acid can work better. I usually need two pumps of this for the face and neck. Luckily I received an email from Cult Beauty that I’ll get a refund, as DE has come to their senses and decided to decrease their UK prices a little bit, so it makes the price a little more acceptable now.

Hazelwat

The good stuff

Really nice acid, it has no sticky residue like most and leaves skin feeling plump and hydrated! Also mixes in well with other products. 100% recommend.

First try...bodes well!

I just used this product for the first time last night and have woken up to much happier, better-hydrated skin! It absorbed instantly and left me with a silky base on which to apply the Lala Whipped Cream and my dehydrated skin was instantly soooo much happier. I'll definitely be using this regularly to support my skin as we move into the colder months.

Racla

Great addition to your regular moisturiser

My skin is acne prone, combination and dehydrated. I’ve been using an expensive clinic B5 serum for sometime. It’s double the price of this for half the amount of product and does the same thing. If anything this is nicer to use as it leaves a cooling effect. Can be used on its own but I like to layer my regular moisturiser over the top day and night. If your looking for hydration without saturation then this is ideal, I’ve now stopped using facial oils as they just never absorb enough to use in the day too.
