Face Reality HydraRemedy Serum

HydraRemedy Gel Serum is a lightweight gel-cream serum made to calm, hydrate and support compromised skin without leaving behind a heavy or greasy feel. It layers easily under your moisturizer and can be especially helpful when your skin is feeling dry, sensitive or stressed from acne treatments.

The fragrance-free formula combines four forms of hyaluronic acid with Face Reality’s proprietary Tri-Recovery Complex™ to deliver lasting hydration while supporting the skin barrier.

Deep, lasting hydration
Four forms of hyaluronic acid help attract and hold moisture throughout different layers of the skin. The result is hydrated, plumper-looking skin without the heaviness that can come with richer creams.

Supports a healthy skin barrier
Ceramide NP, panthenol and beta-glucan work together with the Tri-Recovery Complex™ to help replenish and strengthen the skin barrier. A healthier barrier can also make skin more resilient when using acne treatments.

Helps calm redness and irritation
Dipotassium glycyrrhizate, a licorice root derivative, along with bisabolol and arnica montana flower extract help soothe the look of redness and irritation. These ingredients can also support the appearance of post-inflammatory erythema, those lingering pink or purple marks that can remain after a breakout.

Supports post-breakout recovery
Madecassic acid and asiatic acid are components of centella asiatica that help support the skin’s natural repair process and collagen production while skin recovers from breakouts.

Supports the skin microbiome
Lactobacillus ferment and alpha-glucan oligosaccharide help support a balanced skin microbiome and a calm, healthy-looking complexion.

Why I love it for acne prone skin: Hydration is a huge part of keeping acne prone skin healthy. This gives the skin the moisture and barrier support it needs without adding a thick layer that can feel like too much.
