6 Affordable Hyaluronic Acid Serums to Add to Your Skincare Routine

Hyaluronic acid is known as one of the best hydrating skincare ingredients among dermatologists and skincare enthusiasts alike. It’s plumping, suitable for all skin types and can be found in all sorts of products, from sunscreen to moisturizer. But one of the best ways to add hyaluronic acid into your routine is with a hyaluronic acid-packed serum. As all things in skincare, serum price points run the gamut — ranging from luxe options to more affordable finds hanging out at your local drugstore. We’ve rounded up our favorites from the latter category, so you can slather on hyaluronic acid serums without breaking the bank.
