Beauty Hoarder: Hydrating Serums
As someone whose main skin concern is dehydration, it’s no surprise that I tend to like hydrating serums, although why I need so many I’m not really sure! I’m a sucker for anything that claims to improve water retention in the skin and here are the ones currently in rotation on my face: Vichy Aqualia Thermal Dynamic Hydration Power Serum When Sali Hughes and Caroline Hirons both recommend a fairly affordable hydration product, you know I’m making a beeline for it.
