Your skincare routine should change as you age. This is especially true once you enter your forties, which is when the skin requires more hydration and nutrients to stay healthy and protected. “Because skin thins and dries in the 40s because of decreased estrogen, most women also need more moisturization during this decade,” Jennifer Herrmann, a Beverly Hills-based dermatologist, tells Byrdie. Most women over 40 can benefit from incorporating a hyaluronic acid serum into their routine for its moisturizing effects on the skin. Need help finding the best hyaluronic acid for your skin? Dr.  Joshua Zeichner, M.D., director of cosmetic and clinical research at Mount Sinai in New York City, says that Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost Hydrating Serum is one of the most effective serums available, noting that the hyaluronic acid benefits the skin by hydrating and plumping the skin.

Promising Reviews From Target Shoppers: 

"This product seemed to make my moisturizer work better! I applied the serum first and then layered the moisturizer on after the serum had dried. My skin looks smoother and almost glowing! I love the fact that you don't have to spend a ton of money to get a quality product." - Anonymous 

"In the winter my face gets very dry, and needs some type of serum or oil. After washing my face at night, I apply this gently to my whole face. I really like the effects, and it keeps my face moisturized throughout the night. I make sure to rinse off in the morning before applying makeup. I really like this product and would recommend." - Trix 

"I bought this product to complete my hydro boost skincare regimen. My skin was very dry and bumpy through the cold winter season and this product along with the Hydro Boost gel have saved my skin!!! I've been dedicated to the brand for my skincare for a few years now and I don't think I'll ever change it!!!!" - Anna2294
