e.l.f. Hyaluronic Acid Serum Triple Bounce 1.7% — Lightweight Gel for Plump, Hydrated Skin, Vegan

This fast-absorbing formula blends three molecular weights of hyaluronic acid—ultra-low, low and high—with squalane, niacinamide and vitamin B5 to hydrate, smooth and help balance skin tone. The gel texture melts into damp or dry skin, leaving a comfortable, bouncy finish that layers easily under creams, SPF and makeup. It’s vegan, cruelty-free and suited for daily use morning and night.

How does the triple-weight hyaluronic acid improve skin hydration?

Using three molecular sizes helps hydrate different skin layers: smaller molecules target surface and deeper hydration while larger ones form a moisture-holding film. Together they increase skin’s ability to retain water for an immediate and lasting plumpness without heaviness.

• Ultra-low weight: penetrates more deeply for internal bounce.
• Low weight: supports mid-layer moisture and texture smoothing.
• High weight: sits on the surface to lock in hydration and reduce transepidermal water loss.

Will this serum work with my morning and evening routines?

Yes — the lightweight gel absorbs quickly so it’s ideal both under daytime SPF and evening moisturizers. Apply 3–5 drops to cleansed skin, patting gently until absorbed; follow with a moisturizer to seal the hydration for longer wear.

• Use AM: under sunscreen and makeup for smoother application.
• Use PM: layer under a richer cream to maximize overnight recovery.
• Skin prep: apply to damp skin to boost absorption and plumping effect.

Can this serum help with texture, pores, and overall skin appearance?

The formula combines niacinamide and vitamin B5 with squalane to support smoother-looking skin and a more even tone while hyaluronic acid adds plumpness. Niacinamide helps minimize the look of pores and evens complexion, while squalane adds lightweight barrier support without greasiness.

• Niacinamide: improves tone and reduces the visual size of pores.
• Squalane: hydrates and reinforces the skin barrier for softer texture.
• Vitamin B5: helps skin hold moisture and feel supple.

How does the texture feel and layer with other products?

The serum has a bouncy, gel-like texture that spreads smoothly and absorbs without tackiness. It sits well under serums, creams and makeup—ideal for combination through dry skin types that want noticeable hydration without weight.

• Bouncy gel: blends easily and leaves a dewy finish.
• Non-greasy: suitable for oily and combination skin when used sparingly.
• Layer-friendly: pairs with moisturizers and sunscreens without pilling.
