I know, I know, at this point everyone and their mum has written about the Mixa Hyalurogel Light cream. However, because I've been raving about it for years and I absolutely love it, I feel like it's only right that I tell you my story with it.
About 3 years ago, I went to a dermatologist hoping that he'd finally fix my acne-prone skin for good. Though that didn't exactly work, there's one great thing that came out of spending a tone of money on visiting the dermatologist - this gorgeous moisturizer. After treating my skin with a bunch of drying products for months in an attempt to get rid of my acne, he finally recommended using the Mixa Hyalurogel Light cream as my daily moisturizer. As I said, that was about 3 years ago and I'm still repurchasing this baby and using it religiously!
Mixa Hyalurogel Light is enriched with hyaluronic acid which your skin needs and it is aimed at sensitive normal and dehydrated skin. It's no secret that our skin needs a lot of hydration and that hyaluronic acid is a very desirable ingredient for that purpose. Hyaluronic acid is a component of the skin that keeps it looking plump and prevents moisture loss. That's why you should bring it back to the skin after using drying products. And while there are serums that contain a bigger amount of HA than this moisturizer, it's still an amazing product to add into your routine. Trust me, I've persuaded practically everyone I know to start using this cream and I haven't heard one complaint yet! Everyone loves this little gem.
There are two versions of this cream - light and rich. Because I'm an oily mess, I stick to using the light version with 7% glycerin. However, if your skin is on the drier side, you can go for the rich one with 10% glycerin. My friend who's got much drier skin than me loves the rich version, so it's definitely worth a shot. Choose according to your skin's needs.
As with any other skincare item, I can't vouch for its effects and claim that it will help your skin, as skin is a very touchy subject matter. All I can say is that it's a very pleasant, enjoyable product that hasn't given me any problems. And let me tell you, my skin is prone to bad reactions (acne) when it doesn't like a product. Tell me about your experience with this baby. Is the Mixa Hyalurogel Light your fave as well or do you have a different holy grail moisturizer?
