COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream 100ml

A cream that does exactly what it needs to — nothing more. Built around a base of Hippophae Rhamnoides water and Sodium Hyaluronate, it works in two steps: drawing moisture into the upper layers of the skin, then locking it in. The effect is subtle — no greasy film, no heaviness — just skin that gradually feels more resilient over the weeks.

Texture and ingredients — The ingredient list is deliberately short. Hippophae Rhamnoides water replaces standard purified water as the first component, giving the formula a functional head start. Sodium Hyaluronate acts as a hydration carrier, while Glycerin and Betaine round out the moisture-binding action. Helianthus Annuus seed oil and Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil soften the texture without weighing it down. Panthenol and Allantoin help the skin tolerate the formula well, even on sensitive skin. No filler ingredients — the brand says so, and the list backs it up.

In your routine — It fits naturally after a hyaluronic acid essence or serum — the brand actually recommends applying it after their Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence. Apply a small amount to the face, avoiding the eye and lip area, then gently pat with fingertips to encourage absorption along the skin's natural texture. The 100 ml size lasts several months with daily use, morning or evening depending on your routine.

• Sodium Hyaluronate: helps retain water in the upper layers of the skin and visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines through hydration.
• Hippophae Rhamnoides Water base: the first ingredient on the INCI list, replacing plain water as the formulation base.
• Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride combined with Cetearyl Olivate and Sorbitan Olivate: these emollients create a melting texture that leaves no heavy occlusive residue.
• Short INCI list of 19 ingredients: each component has a clear, identifiable purpose — no unnecessary preservatives or fillers.
• 100 ml size: suited to a daily routine over several months, whether you're trying this cream for the first time or making it a long-term staple.
