Alpha-H Hyaluronic 8
Beauty professionals have sung endless praises about hyaluronic acid, but not all products with the ingredient are created equal. Enter the Alpha-H Hyaluronic 8, which features eight multi-weighted hydrating ingredients including the ground-breaking Primalhyal Ultrafiller. Together, the “magic 8” are able to penetrate deep into the skin and create a moisture reservoir. The resulting topical dermal filler claims to firm, plump, reduce signs of aging and restore radiance and elasticity. W sephora.my
