Revolution’s £5.25 hyaluronic acid gives dry, winter skin a new lease of life

We put the budget brand’s hydrating serum to the test - (Revolution/The Independent)

When we think of Revolution, often the name conjures images of affordable eyeshadow palettes and, back in the day, the banana baking powder (£4,79, Lookfantastic.com) – but these days, the brand has quite a stellar skincare offering, too. Namely, its 2% hyaluronic acid serum (£5.25, Lookfantastic.com), which proved a top budget buy in our guide to the best hyaluronic acids, gaining high-praise for its vegan formula and earning a glowing 4.5/5 star rating.

It’s ingredients boast two types of hyaluronic acid – something that’s relatively rare even in the more expensive HA serums – as well as glycerin for a three-pronged approach to hydration. If you’re not in the know, both hyaluronic acid and glycerin are humectants, meaning they can draw moisture from the air onto your skin.
