Dr Dennis Gross Hyaluronic Marine Hydration Booster 30ml

If you haven't tried any of Dr Gross's products i cant recommended them enough GO FOR IT the results are great!!! I currently only using Dr Dennis Gross system couldn't be happier and believe me I've gone through my share of products. I would recommend these products to anyone, my skun is bright and moistorized and looking younger which is the best part. If you are thinking because the cost I suggest you go for it, i have friends that are now using his system. The ultimate is that I receive so many compliments on the look of my skin.

Bought after trying sample bottle

I had bought a different product from Dr Gross and this came as a little sample bottle along with it. My skin isn’t necessarily dry, but it is quite dehydrated, and I’ve found this helps quite well. I even got my mother to try some while I stayed at her house recently and she was quite fond of it too.Being a Dr Gross product the price is a little steep, but with some products you don’t use a huge amount so the price stretches out quite well. I am however finding I’m going through this a lot faster than I’d like given the price, but that may be due to me over-using a little.Hyaluronic acid is best applied while your face is still damp so that the molecules lock the water into your skin, so my favourite way of using this is straight after a bath or shower, and ... MoreI had bought a different product from Dr Gross and this came as a little sample bottle along with it.

The scent is quite fresh, maybe a bit of an alcoholic scent but I don’t find it too overpowering. However some people may be a little put off as I wouldn’t say it’s lightly scented.I will definitely buy this again, the 4 star rating is simply because I do feel it could be a bit cheaper, I definitely think it should be under the $100 mark. But if you can afford it I’d recommend giving it a go, or definitely get a sample to try from Mecca.

CONTAINS MULTIPLE EXFOLIATING ACIDS

Warning: this product contains glycolic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, and RETINOL!! I bought this product specifically because my skin was in need of extra hydration after regular use of exfoliating acids (in other DDG skincare products). I *thought* this product would be good for my skin since it markets itself as a lightweight drink of water for your skin, I was wrong. It did not increase hydration in my skin (although it is very lightweight and absorbs quickly). If anything, it made my skin barrier more compromised and irritated since applying this product to my skin meant I was applying MORE exfoliating acids to my already exfoliated skin. The ingredients in this product are noncomedogenic, but if you have sensitive/dry/dehydrated skin AND you’re already using ... MoreWarning: this product contains glycolic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, and RETINOL!!

I totally think this can be a great product for someone with oily skin, someone living in hot/humid weather, or for someone who is NOT already using exfoliating acids in their other skincare products. Otherwise, stay clear of this product. I have had better hydration results using Kiehl’s Hydro-Plumping Re-Texturizing Serum Concentrate (fav!), Drunk Elephant’s B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum, or Tatcha’s Gold Camellia Beauty Oil.

Good for maintenance

I have been using this nightly for a little while, and it's quite nice. Very thin, so you need a bit, but it seems to go a long way. I don't think it's the be all and end all for hydration, but having very dry skin it seems to help to stop deterioration and works well with my other evening products. I liked the fact that it has scientifically backed actives, including retinol (which they don't promote oddly enough), but it's gentle enough to use every day on my sensitive skin. Also no fragrance which for me is a bonus. Not sure if I would buy it again, but for now I am liking it.

Love 💖

I have rosacea sensitive skin and have had problems finding products that don't irritate my eyes and skin. After watching a DDG YouTube for rosacea I decided to try the Hyaluronic Marine Hydration Booster. I'm so glad I did because I had absolutely no irritation and my extremely dry skin quickly saw major improvement. I continued to add all of the Hyaluronic products and my skin had never looked and felt better.

Midwest Mom

I use a grape water spray and then this and my skin feels like it’s getting a cool, refreshing drink of water. My face feels balanced and plump all day. My daughter tried the same routine and had amazing results as well. I would recommend for all skin types since I tend to have dry/sensitive skin and she has more oily/acne prone skin. This product is something I use everyday and can’t imagine going without. I LOVE my all day refreshed, zero tightness, perfectly hydrated skin.

Nourishing!

I've been using this daily (morning and night) for about 10 weeks now, and my skin has improved so much! I didn't really use a serum in my routine before, and my skin was oily, with lots of sebaceous filaments and very dull looking. My skin is GLOWING now. I use this after cleansing, toning, and exfoliating (liquid) and then finish with the Dr. Dennis Gross Moisture cushion.The product itself is lovely and slippery. It's very easy to apply with the dropper tool too, and the packaging is high quality.It soaks into my skin within a minute and doesn't leave you feeling sticky like some other HA serums do. LOVE IT!

Underwhelming for the price point.

For the price point, I really expected better results. Unfortunately it didn't deliver. . I purchased this to help with my dehydrated skin. The texture is very watery, when applied I didn't feel that the product was helping me retain water, and I was using this AM/PM as my serum step for weeks. When really, a product to help with dehydration should work quicker than that. It very well could be my skin type as well. And might be better suited for those who don't need a lot of hydration? For reference, I have combo skin, with dermatitis, and am prone to dehydrated skin. I picked up the La Roche Posay Toleriane serum for my dehydrated skin, and found that to be much more effective sooner.

new formula?

I received a small vile of the Dr. Dennis Gross Hyaluronic Marine Hydration Booster, and I LOVED it! It was a thicker, slightly gel like liquid that went on smoothly with little fragrance and left skin feeling hydrated, soft and glowing. But I just purchased the full size bottle and I am really disappointed. I used it for the first time yesterday and it is clearly a different formula than the sample that I received and used. The formula must have changed! It is a very thin liquid (with some sort of alcohol or something in it), whereas the sample was a slightly thicker gel like substance that was smoother and did not dry tacky. This new formula did not feel as nice, dried tacky and generally I am not as happy with the product. It does not leave my skin feeling ... MoreI received a small vile of the Dr. Dennis Gross Hyaluronic Marine Hydration Booster, and I LOVED it!

I went online to investigate if there had been a formula change and there are some other reviews a few months ago (on a different site) with similar complaints. I feel like they ruined a fantastic product. I will be returning and looking for a smoother HA serum.I never write reviews but felt compelled because of how different my experience was to the product.

your skin needs water too…

Amongst the serums (texture renewal, Vit C brightening serum) by Dr Dennis Gross, this is the recommended one for combination and sensitive skin. It is lightweight and u feel your skin “plumper”, and brighter due to the hydrated skin. Good for daily use, not more than twice per day. Couple it with the hydration creme (especially at night time) for maximum results. Only drawback is abit pricey, but beauty comes with a cost, isn’t it?
