My skin has been really dehydrated from hours of working in air-conditioned offices, so I honestly have not tried using such high amount of hyaluronic acid on my skin before. Dehydrated skin is not the same as dry skin, dehydrated skin means the skin is lacking of water. Since we all know from our primary science that water and oil does not mix, so oily skin can also become dehydrated. Personally I have combination skin – the popular T-zone and dry cheeks.
Since dehydrated skin means lack of water, so it makes sense to find products that help your skin to retain the moisture effectively. So here’s where the hyaluronic acid comes in. According to Dermatology & Mohs Surgery Institute’s article, hyaluronic acid exist naturally in our bodies as a sugar molecule which holds water and helps keep skin hydrated and plump. However, as we age, like other things in our bodies, the amount of hyaluronic acid produced by our bodies also reduced.
During my last trip to Seoul in early 2020, I have always heard about the affordability and usefulness of Korean skincare products. Although our trip was not that packed, we still did not manage to do a lot of shopping, and I was curious about AHC products. On the last day, I saw this special set of AHC Premium Ex Hydra B5 special set on discounts so decided to get this. What I really like about this set that convinced me to buy is the amount of hyaluronic acid included in these products, it is the key ingredient in all these products.
To be honest, I have been slightly lazy throughout the year of 2020, what’s with the circuit breaker in April to June and working from home. So I have only started using this set after I finished up my last products. Below is my unboxing video on what’s included in this special set.
Although now travel is still very much restricted in many parts of the world, you may get this special set from Amazon at https://amzn.to/2QhXNV1
