A product with thousands of five-star ratings does not phase me. I am a beauty editor who loves testing almost anything I can get my hands on, not to mention my beat is specifically shopping—I’m not easy to impress. But, I found myself surprised and impressed when I came across Cosmedica Skincare—a brand I hadn’t heard of—and its Hyaluronic Acid Serum. It has a staggering 33,000-plus five-stars, convincing before and after photos from shoppers, and the types of glowing reviews that border on poetry.
The titular ingredient in Cosmedica’s serum is, in fact, the only ingredient. You’re getting nothing but pure hyaluronic acid—that means all of its anti-aging benefits are souped up to the max.

A refresher: Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that decreases with age. That’s a bummer because it’s responsible for keeping skin plump, full, and hydrated. Cosmedica’s serum not only compensates for the degradation of hyaluronic acid but also floods your skin with it. It moisturizes but also retains that moisture while continually drawing in more. This is part of the reason it makes wrinkles and fine lines less severe and the complexion more firm and full.
But, can you actually get an effective hyaluronic acid serum for just $10? The 33,000-plus five-star shoppers say yes. “[Cosmedica’s Hyaluronic Acid Serum] has effectively taken 5 years off my skin…it has erased the 11 creases between my eyes… and my crow's feet.” If that isn’t enough, the shopper also said it reduced their pores “a significant amount.” Another shopper said it “makes lines, creases, and furrows fuller, less obvious, and softer.” This even has praise from someone in their 80s; they wrote it “tightens and plumps” skin all over the face, neck, and jawline.
Head to Amazon to shop the Cosmedica Skincare Hyaluronic Acid Serum; it’s a “$130 product for peanuts,” a.k.a., $10 as one shopper described it. You won’t regret it.
