      Tried the more expensive version first — this gets me most of the way there for a fraction of the price.

      Clinically, Hyaluronic Acid at this level is reasonable for most skin types. Don't expect overnight change — that's not how this works.

      Was skeptical anything under R200 could work this well. Glad I didn't spend more on the fancier brands.

      Texture's nice but I haven't noticed the difference the description promised yet. Might be a slow burn.
