Targets
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 is a water-light hydrating serum made for dehydrated, tight-feeling skin. It uses hyaluronic acid at three molecular weights so hydration reaches several depths rather than sitting on the surface.
Vitamin B5 supports repair. It suits every skin type, including oily skin that is dehydrated rather than dry.
Made for this climate
Very good fit for Bangladesh weather because oily skin here is often dehydrated underneath, and this hydrates without adding any oil.
Product breakdown
Application
Routine placement
Morning: Cleanser → Toner → The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 → Moisturizer → Sunscreen
Night: Cleanser → Toner → The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 → Moisturizer
Hyaluronic acid needs a moisturizer over it. On its own in dry air it can pull water out of your skin instead of into it.
Realistic expectations
Dehydration and dryness are not the same thing. Dry skin lacks oil and needs a cream. Dehydrated skin lacks water and needs this. Plenty of oily people are dehydrated and treating it as oiliness.
Good to know
Authenticity
Sourced through verified importers, never grey-market resellers.
Genuine The Ordinary bottles carry a batch code and expiry matching the carton, with a plain white label and sharp print. The serum is clear and slightly viscous in a glass dropper bottle — a cloudy or plastic-bottled version is not genuine.

Questions, answered
Yes. Oily skin is frequently dehydrated, and this hydrates without adding oil.
Damp. Hyaluronic acid draws in water, so give it water to work with, then seal it with moisturizer.
Slightly tacky for about a minute, then it absorbs. A moisturizer on top removes the feeling entirely.
