Super hydrating serum
I found this serum to be super hydrating and just what my dry skin needed. A little goes a long way so I know this product will last. My only complaint is that when I put it over top of my essence (the order I always apply my skincare), it made the moisturizer pill up. I tried a few different moisturizers but it still did the same thing. When I removed the essence it did not pill up anymore and I applied the essence on top of everything at the end. Not sure what caused it but I did figure it out.

Curology Hydro Hydration Serum
I’ve been using Curology Hydro+ Hydration Serum for a few weeks, and I’m obsessed! It leaves my skin feeling incredibly moisturized without being greasy. My complexion looks brighter, and my skin feels smoother and plumper. The lightweight formula absorbs quickly and works perfectly under makeup.

Not good for arid high desert climes
When I lived in a humid place hyaluronic acid products worked well for me. But now I live in an extremely dry desert, and hyaluronic acid actually pulls water from my skin. I think it's a well-formulated product, but it let my skin feeling tight and dry. Ceramides work better here.

Amazing Hydration!
This product is amazing! I received this product and used it first thing in the morning. I applied 3 drops to my damp face by patting it into my skin. I repeated this process again later that evening. The serum isn't greasy or sticky, it fully absorbs, leaving no residue behind. There was a faint, not unpleasant, odor but that quickly diminished. By day 3 I noticed a change in my face. My skin was healthier looking, much softer to the touch and it had a youthful glow to it. After 7 days I was extremely impressed with this product! My skin is buttery soft now, I often find myself caressing my face, in awe, over how soft and smooth it is. Even my wrinkles have diminished a bit! My face looks younger, less blemishes and more youthful. I even get compliments with lots of questions as to what I am doing differently. This product is worthy of 10 stars!!

Good product for the price
I'm a huge skincare fanatic, but I'm also so picky. I have turned more so to Korean skincare and cleaner skincare but this Curology hydration serum works. Provides hydration without being too thick.

Extra boost of hydration
I have naturally dry skin, and it has been extremely hard to maintain hydration during the cold winter months. I was very excited to try Curology Hydro+ Hydrating Serum, as the ingredients that are highlighted on the packaging are very promising. The serum is definitely on the thicker side, more viscuous and not watery. I apply a few drops after using my cleanser and hydrating toner, always making sure my skin is still fairly damp. Typically I follow that with another serum and moisturizer. I haven't noticed a change in my skin's hydration level since using this serum, but to be fair I use tretinoin which is very drying, and the winter winds don't help. I like to think that this serum is adding hydration and protecting my barrier, but it's very hard to tell since my skin is still extremely dry throughout the day. I will continue to use this everyday because I've had no adverse side effects, and because I love the ingredients.

I Love It
I have specific morning and nighttime skin care routines so I chose to introduce this serum into my nightly regimen. It’s been a couple weeks since I started using it and I have to admit, I am totally obsessed. I’ve noticed a plumpness and softness to my skin that I have yet to achieve with other hydrating serums. In the past, I have blindly purchased skin products and once I go to use them, I find myself disappointed in the overall texture, but Curology Hydro+ Hydration Serum has a thick, robust consistency. I also appreciate that it doesn’t have a scent. I’m not a huge fan of heavily perfumed skin care products. I will say, the first night I used the serum, I failed to follow the instructions properly and put the product on dry skin. When I did this, I noticed some mild redness to sections of my cheeks. That being said, every subsequent application of the serum I followed the proper steps of dabbing onto damp skin. I truly do love this product. I feel like my skin is just going to co

Hydrating, but leaves skin sticky
I've been applying this serum in the morning and night for 1-2 weeks now and it does leave skin feeling hydrated. However, it leaves my skin slightly tacky, even after applying my moisturizer. I have only skin and sometimes it makes my skin oilier yhrought the day. I feel this would be great for dry skin.

Very Hydrating
This serum provides great hydration to the skin. I deal with dryness in some areas and this has left my skin feeling soft and plumped. It comes in a nice bottle and easy to dispense with the dropper. I use it alone or with moisturizer on top.

Feels great and leaves skin hydrated
I really like this product! It feels great going on and leaves my skin feeling hydrated all day. It also does not make my skin break out at all which is obviously a must when choosing skincare.

I like it
After trying this product, I can say that I like it. The product is light on the skin. It absorbs well on clean, lightly damp skin. It keeps my skin quite moisturized throughout the day.

Effective but bad smell & packaging
This hydration serum does its job very well. It’s effective, gentle, and easy to incorporate into any skincare routine. I didn’t experience any irritation, and it delivers exactly what it promises: solid hydration without any fuss. There are two issues that prevent this product from being a 5 star product for me. First, the plastic packaging feels very cheap but I understand why brands make these kinds of decisions. Second, and more importantly, there’s an odd smell that comes out when applying the serum. The serum itself doesn't actually have a smell and I can't really smell anything when I sniff the product in the bottle. But I can smell a strong, unpleasant odor that kind of smells like wet cardboard when I rub the serum. Smells are a big deal for me so this odor makes me not want to reach for this serum. Overall, it’s a good product that works well, but the packaging and the smell hold it back from being perfect.

Does not last long
I have used this hydration serum for 2 weeks now. I used 3-4 drops of serum on dry, clean face. The application felt a little sticky and the hydration did not last longer. It does not hydrate skin immediately
