Well, here's my thoughts on this face serum from its texture to the effects it had on my skin. Mine is a combination skin that's getting drier as I age.
Nykaa SKINRX Hydra-X 2% Hyaluronic Acid face serum:
What it is:

Packaging:
The fluid comes in a white coloured, opaque glass bottle with a dropper dispenser, provided by the brand additionally. When I recieved the package, it is provided with a black screw cap to prevent from any spillage. I had to insert the dropper dispenser after removing the black cap. All these was encased in a cardboard box with all necessary information about the product. Though you'll get those details on the outer part of the bottle as well. I'm really a fan of this dropper packaging as it makes it easy to portion out the serum.
Texture and fragrance
It has a nice, lightweight gel-like consistency that glides on easily and dries smoothly without leaving any residue or tackiness. Hence, oily or combination skin types can use it. The concentration is easy to disperse, absorbs fast and works well under makeup. It's simply flawless. The serum is fragrance free which is a plus point for my sensitive nose.
My Experience with Nykaa SKINRX Hydra-X 2% Hyaluronic Acid face serum
After a whole month of daily use of Nykaa SKINRX Hydra-X 2% Hyaluronic Acid face serum, I am quite impressed with the effects I'm seeing. You need only 2-3 drops for your entire face and neck and anything more will be a bit greasy. I use it during the day inserting between the toner and my regular sunscreen. Afterwards, the skin feels delicate and silky to touch. It doesn't feel sticky or excessive moist. After continuous use, you can notice a fresher, smoother and healthier complexion.
It definitely offers some hydration my skin is needed. However, I don’t think it is hydrating enough for what I need at my 50's. It has definitely improved the texture of my skin giving it a healthy and fresh appearance. Yet, I can't give it 5 star as I expected more hydrating and plumping effect on my face.
Overall, I'm quite happy with the result of Nykaa SKINRX Hydra-X 2% Hyaluronic Acid face serum. I really appreciate the soothing and calming effect it does give. Though I would not suggest this serum to anyone over thirty. It's a good option for the girls above twenty who are looking for some boost of hydration.

I haven't used any store-bought serum so far. But have made a homemade one. I liked how you honestly shared your experienced and also gave your suggestion about which age group will be more benefited with it.
ReplyDeleteWow, I definitely would like to know your recipe for that homemade serum.
DeleteThank you for sharing your review. My skin is quite dry and I am looking for something that will hydrate it but as you mentioned that this is not recommended for someone above 30... can you share your recommendation for 30+ age group?
ReplyDeleteYes, it'll benefit 30+ people also.
DeleteI am using a few face serums, and can swear by their effectiveness. Have recently realised how good they are to keep your skin moisturized and supple all the time.
ReplyDeleteYes serums are really good, especially after 30+
DeleteNykaa has some really good products and promising too. I haven't used it yet but heard a lot about it. This serum looks very nice, will try. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteDo try. You're gonna love it.
DeleteHaving dry skin has made me rely a lot on hyaluronic acid as nothing hydrates the skin more than that. I am yet to try Nykaa Skin rx range
ReplyDeleteSo true.
DeleteBeing light on skin and turning skin into smooth silky texture is a good feature for me to try this product. Shall check it soon.
ReplyDeleteSure 😊
DeleteI would love to order this face serum for my better half. Any beauty product that can help in boosting the skin's moisture will be a sure shot hit with my wife.
ReplyDeleteSure, you can do but why are you not trying?
