Panthenol helps condition the skin, support moisture retention, and maintain a healthy-looking skin barrier.

Suitable For

• Dehydrated skin
• Dry or tight-feeling skin
• Normal skin needing additional hydration
• Combination skin
• Oily skin that needs lightweight moisture
• Skin with rough texture caused by dehydration
• Fine lines that appear more noticeable when skin is dry
• People looking for a simple daily hydrating serum

Ideal for Bangladesh's Climate

Bangladesh's hot, humid weather can make heavy skincare products feel uncomfortable, while air conditioning, frequent cleansing, and sun exposure can contribute to skin dehydration.

The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 offers a water-based hydration step that can be layered with a lightweight moisturizer without making your routine unnecessarily heavy.

Tips for using it in Bangladesh:

• Apply to slightly damp skin after cleansing.
• Use only a few drops to avoid excessive layering.
• Follow with a suitable moisturizer to help retain hydration.
• In the morning, finish with broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher sunscreen.
• If the serum feels sticky, use a smaller amount and allow it to settle before applying the next product.

Texture & Finish

The serum has a water-based, slightly viscous texture that spreads easily over the skin. It helps leave the complexion feeling hydrated and looking smoother and plumper.

The original formulation may feel richer or slightly tacky on some skin types. Applying a small amount to damp skin and following with moisturizer can improve comfort.

How to Use

1. Cleanse: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
2. Apply to damp skin: Leave your skin slightly damp after cleansing.
3. Use a few drops: Gently spread the serum over your face, avoiding direct contact with the eyes.
4. Follow with moisturizer: Apply a suitable moisturizer to help lock in hydration.
5. Use sunscreen in the morning: Finish your daytime routine with broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher.

Recommended frequency: Use morning and evening, according to your skin's tolerance.

Important Tips

• Patch-test before your first use, particularly if your skin is sensitive.
• Apply to slightly damp rather than completely dry skin for a comfortable hydration routine.
• Follow with a moisturizer; hyaluronic acid is a humectant, not a replacement for moisturizer.
• If you experience persistent redness, burning, or irritation, discontinue use.
• The serum can be combined with many other skincare ingredients, but introduce new products gradually if your skin is sensitive.
• The serum supports hydration and the appearance of fine lines caused by dryness; it is not a treatment for deep wrinkles or permanent skin laxity.
