Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testThe Innisfree Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Serum is packed with hydrating Green Tea and moisture-boosting hyaluronic acid to keep your skin soft, plump, and glowing. Its lightweight, fast-absorbing formula helps lock in moisture for long-lasting hydration while strengthening the skin’s barrier. Made with Innisfree’s special Green Tea+HA™ complex, it deeply nourishes and balances your skin, leaving it feeling smooth and refreshed all day. Free from fragrance and alcohol, this gentle, vegan-friendly serum is perfect for achieving a healthy, dewy look.
Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Serum is a lightweight serum from innisfree, a brand based in Korea. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 54 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. The oils in it point to a dewy, emollient finish rather than a matte one. Hydration is handled by Propanediol, Glycerin and Betaine, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Propanediol, Glycerin, Betaine and Butylene Glycol.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Allantoin, Niacinamide and Xylitol.
Barrier support: Moderate. Lipids and repair signals that support skin barrier integrity, and here that comes from Niacinamide, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Squalane and Panthenol.
Brightening: Moderate. Ingredients that act on uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks, and here that comes from Niacinamide, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, 3-o-ethyl Ascorbic Acid and Tocopherol.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free, microplastic-free, sulfate-free and dye-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain fragrance and essential oils, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after toner, before moisturiser. Apply to clean, dry skin and give it a minute to absorb before the next layer. Introduce one new treatment at a time so you can identify what is working.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
