Trader Joe's Dewy Skin Serum — Niacinamide & Multi-Weight Hyaluronic Acid Glow Serum (1 fl oz)

Trader Joe's Dewy Skin Serum is a lightweight, water-based gel facial serum formulated with Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), a multi-molecular Hyaluronic Acid complex (standard, acetylated, crosslinked, and hydrolyzed forms), Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Watermelon Extract, and Rosehip Fruit Extract. Designed to deliver instant dewy radiance, deep multi-layer hydration, pore refinement, and even skin tone in a single daily step — suitable for all skin types including oily and combination.

Active Ingredients and Clinical Benefits

• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) — One of the most clinically validated skincare actives. At effective concentrations, Niacinamide minimizes enlarged pore appearance, regulates sebum production, evens hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone, strengthens the epidermal barrier, and reduces redness — making it suitable for oily, combination, and sensitive skin types.
• Multi-Molecular Hyaluronic Acid Complex (Standard + Acetylated + Crosslinked + Hydrolyzed HA) — Four molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid target different skin depths simultaneously: high-molecular HA forms a surface moisture film; low-molecular and hydrolyzed HA penetrate deeper layers to plump fine lines and restore internal hydration; crosslinked HA provides extended moisture retention. Together they deliver comprehensive, long-lasting hydration across all skin layers.
• Panthenol (Provitamin B5) — A humectant and skin-conditioning agent that attracts and retains moisture, soothes irritation, and reinforces the skin barrier — particularly beneficial for dry or sensitive skin types.
• Watermelon Extract (Citrullus Lanatus) — Rich in lycopene and amino acids (citrulline) that provide antioxidant protection, soothe stressed skin, and support natural skin radiance and hydration.
• Rosehip Fruit Extract (Rosa Canina) — A natural source of Vitamin C precursors, beta-carotene, and essential fatty acids that brighten dull skin, support collagen synthesis, and neutralize free radical damage.
• Mica & Mineral Powders — Provide a subtle, healthy luminous finish without heavy shimmer — ideal as a standalone glow serum or as a primer base under makeup.

How to Use

• Daily glow serum: Apply a pea-sized amount to cleansed face and neck morning or night; follow with moisturizer and SPF in the morning.
• Makeup primer: Apply before foundation to create a smooth, dewy base that extends makeup wear and adds luminosity.
• Hydration booster: Layer under your regular moisturizer for an extra surge of hydration on dry or dull skin days.

Who This Product Is For

• Oily and combination skin — Niacinamide regulates sebum and minimizes pores without over-drying; the water-based gel formula adds no extra oil.
• Dull or uneven skin tone — Niacinamide + Rosehip Extract work together to brighten and even complexion over time.
• Dehydrated skin of all types — the four-form HA complex delivers hydration at every skin layer, suitable even for oily skin that is internally dehydrated.
• Makeup wearers — the mica-infused formula doubles as a primer, creating a smooth, luminous base for foundation application.

Frequently Asked Questions
