I just finished my bottle of Hydra B which I really like. I've noticed there are other brands of HA serums that are quite a bit less expensive. Hydra B is $66 and I see that PSF has one for $19, Diana Yvonne for $30, and Candessence for $19. Is there a big difference between what I've been using and other products? I'd love to save some $ if they are basically the same.
Oh...and I have extremely dry skin if that would affect which HA I use.
Thanks! |

| I'm not familiar with Hydra B but I'm using the PSF HA serum under my moisturizer. I have dry skin too. The reason I tried it is because of reading so many great posts about this product and it is so affordable. I'm liking it. The last serum I used was good too. It was Vichy's but it is twice the price of PSF's serum. |

| Cellex-C makes a Hydra 5 B-Complex Gel as well as SkinCeuticals Hydrating B5 Gel (which I use). I think they are all pretty much the same. |

| I'm using Cellex-C Hydra 5B and I love it, after I finish the Hydra 5B, I'll try the HA serums cause it much cheaper. |

Oops..sorry, I wasn't very clear. Yes, the product I mean is by Cellex-C and is called Hydra 5 B-Complex. It sounds like the two mentioned that have the "B" in them are more expensive and the plain HA is not very expensive.
I've been reading a lot about the role of Vitamin C to the skin, but what does "B" do?
Thanks! |

| I tried Hydra B and pure HA serum and my skin liked pure HA serum better. |

| the only difference i see between the cellex c hydra b and other pure HA serums is the addition of pantothenic acid (vitamin b). since the hydra b is probably mostly hyaluronic acid, you're paying a LOT of money for the cellex-c. i don't see anything special about the ingredient list to justify the price. |
