General, ingredient-based — not your personalized match.

Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testThe Mizon Hyaluronic Acid 100 is highly enriched with 50% hyaluronic acid extract, which supplies moisture immediately to the skin. Hyaluronic acid is an important natural component of the skin that keeps the skin supple and youthful-looking. It locks in moisture, provides cushioning, aids in tissue repair, and holds collagen and elastin’s structure together. Copper tripeptide-1, hydrogenated lecithin, cholesterol, and ceramide 3 improve skin elasticity.
Hyaluronic Acid 100 is a lightweight serum from Mizon. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 33 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. Hydration is handled by Sodium Hyaluronate, Butylene Glycol and Ethylhexylglycerin, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Sodium Hyaluronate, Butylene Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin and Beta-glucan.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Beta-glucan, Sodium Hyaluronate, Portulaca Oleracea Extract and Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract.
Firmness signalling: Moderate. Peptides and growth factors that signal for collagen support, and here that comes from Copper Tripeptide-1 and Adenosine.
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 antioxidant protection, oil control, brightening and tone and cell renewal. 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 fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
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.
