Hydra Serum
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Dermasil Hydra Serum feels "like straight up water" according to board-certified dermatologist Dr. Sarah Sheu, who reports it does not relieve dryness or tightness once the initial wet sensation fades. She notes the product requires layering with other moisturizers and is not a dupe for Drunk Elephant, despite similar packaging. This serum offers minimal hydration on its own and is best suited for those who want a very lightweight, non-hydrating base.
