When it comes to keeping your skin healthy and glowing – hydration is essential. With so many products on the market all claiming miracle results, it can be difficult to find the right ones. Whether you need to hydrate, brighten or just want to step up your game in your skincare, the products will do the work from within.
Here in this guide, we’ll take a look at some powerhouse formulations that can help hydrate, nourish, and balance your skin. They don’t just give you surface level hydration, these products are getting into the deeper layers of your skin barrier to give you lasting results.
Ingredient Science Magic
In a sea of skincare products, what makes a product stand out? The science behind the ingredients isn’t the only thing—it’s the claims too. In order to optimize skincare, knowledge of how each formulation is achieving an intended result is crucial.
The Unique thing about The Ordinary is its commitment to transparency and simplicity. They use science backed ingredients, without unnecessary fillers, and marketing gimmicks. Being able to keep their focus on delivering high performing formulas at an accessible price point means that effective skincare is available to everyone.
Let’s look at the key hydration based products that can change your skin.
Marine Hyaluronics
The solution for deep hydration without the weight of heavy serums is Marine Hyaluronics when your skin craves hydration. A feather light alternative to traditional hyaluronic acid, this water based serum is.
What Makes It Special?
- The formula contains exopolysaccharides from marine bacteria, Hawaiian red algae, and glycoproteins from Antarctic marine sources. Together, these ingredients work to pull water into your skin where it’s needed, giving it hydration.
- Great if you don’t like hyaluronic acid or if you find it too heavy or sticky.
- It targets dehydration and dryness and leaves your skin plump and soft.
- Oil, silicone and alcohol free, perfect for sensitive skin.
Pro Tip: Use Marine Hyaluronics after cleansing, then before other heavier serums or moisturizers for optimal absorption.

Natural Moisturizing Factors + Beta Glucan
A weak skin barrier is often indicated by dehydration, so this lightweight gel moisturizer is meant to fix it. This product is more than a hydrator; it’s a barrier repair hero, plus it contains beta glucan and ceramides.
Key Benefits
- Contains natural moisturizing factors plus beta glucan to maintain moisture.
- It protects the skin’s natural barrier against environmental stressors.
- It gives a non greasy smooth finish which is perfect for oily and combination skin types.
Why It Stands Out
This formula absorbs quickly into the skin and locks in moisture so you can experience all day hydration, unlike heavier moisturizers that sit on top of the skin. For those looking for a lightweight option, it’s an excellent choice.

Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner
The Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner is not your average toner: not just hydrating, exfoliating, and barrier strengthening, but all in one powerhouse product.
The Star Ingredients
- Saccharomyces Ferment: A yeast derived ferment that hydrates and promotes a radiant complexion.
- Fermented N-acetylglucosamine (NAG): It smooths texture, and brightens the skin.
- Squalane: It provides extra layer of hydration but doesn’t clog pores.
It gently exfoliates, as well as keeping your skin hydrated during the day. After only one use, skin is left smoother, brighter and more receptive to future treatments.
Pro Tip: It can be used after cleansing to use as the first step of your routine to prepare your skin for serums and moisturizers.
