What the gurus are saying

This serum centers on dual-weight hyaluronic acid for plumping hydration. One expert praises it as an accessible retinol option in Europe, while another notes that hyaluronic acid serums are not essential to a routine and points out cheaper alternatives like Vichy Mineral 89 that deliver similar results and can do double duty as a moisturizer too.

"The Avène Physiolift Serum is a great high potency retinoid that's really easy to access in Europe. If you're a European Union customer looking to make the switch from retinol to retinoid due to these upcoming restrictions, this is a great easily accessible product. They do a fragrance and a fragrance free version, and I would go for the fragrance free because I made the mistake of buying the fragrance and it stinks, it's pretty potent and I don't like it at all."

"The Physiolift Serum is basically a hyaluronic acid serum with two weights of hyaluronic acid to plump the skin. I don't think you need a hyaluronic acid serum; however, if you must have one in your routine, there are cheaper ones that are likely as good. I recommend the Vichy Mineral 89 instead, which can be used as a serum or a moisturizer."
