If you search for hyaluronic acid products, you will find countless products on the Internet. Unfortunately, it is not obvious to end consumers that some products have an inadequate effect and therefore hardly any effect at all. If you then decide on a product and only later find out about a better alternative, the frustration is great. In this buying guide, our editorial team from Apotheken-Warentest has compiled all the important criteria for evaluating the products on the market and analyzed the test winner.
For years, hyaluronic acid has been THE active ingredient used by women all over the world when it comes to anti-ageing. New studies have once again confirmed this: Hyaluronic acid tightens the skin and can even reverse the degradation of the skin caused by ageing. Wrinkles around the mouth, eyes and forehead are said to be reduced by 40% after just a few weeks. Hyaluronic acid also provides the skin with plenty of moisture, giving it a youthful appearance. Many users report enthusiastically: "I feel ten years younger!"
But caution is advised here too: There are also big differences in hyaluronic acid! Scientists report that it depends on the composition and the method of application.
We uncover the biggest myths about hyaluronic acid and show you what to look out for when buying. We have carried out independent research for you and selected the top 3 best hyaluronic acid products. Our short guide will give you all the knowledge you need to never waste your money on worthless hyaluronic acid products again. So you can achieve maximum results.

Studies have long proven the effectiveness of hyaluronic acid.
There are now many placebo-controlled studies that prove the visible effect of hyaluronic acid. We present a small selection here:
1st Munich study: Increasing skin hydration
A clinical study conducted by the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich focused on the influence of hyaluronic acid on the skin. The study observed 76 women and analyzed the elasticity and moisture content of the skin around the eye area. The results showed that, compared to a placebo, the hyaluronic serum used resulted in a significant increase in skin hydration and general suppleness. (2)
2. further Munich study: Reduced wrinkle depth after 3 months
In another clinical study with 20 participants, divided into four groups, a deep-acting hyaluronic acid serum for daily use was tested. Wrinkle depth and skin firmness were measured before and after a 3-month application phase. The results showed that the depth of wrinkles decreased by up to 20% after 3 months and the skin was tightened by up to 30%. (1)
3 University Hospital Basel: Slowing down the ageing process
A joint research project between the School of Medicine in Thessaloniki and the University Hospital Basel revealed back in 2012 that hyaluronic acid (when used correctly) is able to slow down the ageing process. However, according to research, this requires the use of sluicing agents such as the Dulex acid complex. (3)
As we have learned in the previous lines, hyaluronic acid has a good reputation in terms of its anti-ageing effect for justified and even scientifically confirmed reasons.
It can therefore be assumed that not all hyaluronic acid products are of the best quality.
In order to really benefit from the advantages of hyaluronic acid, you should keep a few points in mind. You can read about these in the following section:
Criterion1: Serums are usually purer than creams and therefore the most effective
Criterion 2: Best results when hyaluronic acid is applied in combination with mucous agents.
Criterion 3: Quality before quantity
We have analyzed dozens of scientific studies for you and tested the most promising products on this basis. Here we present the 3 best hyaluronic serums and the test winner.
We have also based our assessment on the above criteria and included verified product reviews from female testers.
DULEXIR HYALURON
The German pharmacy brand Dulexir has developed a unique formula that cannot be found anywhere else.
They have developed a new complex of active ingredients - the "Dulex Acid Complex" - which enables hyaluronic acid to act on the skin as well as penetrate deep into the skin and plump up particularly deep wrinkles from the inside out. This serum also offers different molecular sizes of hyaluron. Interestingly, the serum is the only hyaluronic acid product to date with filtered nanohyaluronic acid. Thanks to a special filtering process, the manufacturer was able to increase the proportion of very small molecules and improve the depth effect.
Mode of action: 2-stage effect - In the first stage, the skin is freed from its blockage and in the second stage it is then deeply nourished with hyaluronic acid.
The customer reviews are consistently positive. Several customers report a refreshing effect on the skin, good skin tolerance and a visible reduction in wrinkles. 86.7% of customers give it 5 out of 5 stars.
The manufacturer also offers a 60-day trial period during which you can try the serum for free. If you are not satisfied, you can simply cancel your order within the 60 days and receive a full refund.
One bottle contains 50 ml and costs from €33.30 - lasts for approx. 3 months.
EXTREME HYALURON - Hyaluxon®
HYALUXON® is a deep-acting hyaluronic serum enriched with plant substances that stimulate blood circulation for plumper skin. It reduces wrinkles and is suitable for all skin types.
It can be used as a make-up base and is suitable for the face, neck and décolleté. The product is made in Germany, contains no silicones, alcohol or microplastics and is not tested on animals.

Price. 69,90 € / 50 ml
Cosmetics Serum - KU2
This natural serum from KU2 Cosmetics is a simple, high-quality and versatile product with a concentrated amount of long and short-chain hyaluronic acids. It helps to replenish the skin's moisture stores for smoother and plumper skin.
Another plus: thanks to the targeted interaction of various ingredients, the serum can also help the skin to produce more hyaluronic acid itself in the long term.
The KU2 company is popular with beauty enthusiasts. Not least because all products have been developed in collaboration with cosmetic scientists. In addition, regular laboratory tests ensure that effectiveness and safety are guaranteed. The only drawback: although the product appears to be of high quality overall, we have found that some users report a rather sticky consistency. It often takes longer to fully absorb into the skin than comparable products.
Price: 133 € / 100 ml
