COSRX - Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream 100g

COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream (100g) is a rich hydrating moisturizer made in South Korea by COSRX. Its base is 57.8% sea buckthorn (vitamin tree) fruit water, paired with 3,000 ppm of sodium hyaluronate, to help recharge hydration and lock in long-lasting moisture so skin looks plumper and feels supple. It suits all skin types, especially dry and dehydrated skin, and is free of artificial fragrance and essential oils. COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream is available in Kuwait from Skin Valet at 7.900 KWD.

Skin Valet Kuwait is an authorized stockist of COSRX. Every jar is sourced through official distributors, never grey-market or refilled stock, so you receive the original COSRX formula from Korea in its sealed packaging.

What COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream Does

This is the cream to reach for when a light gel is no longer enough. It closes your routine with a cushioned layer that holds water in the skin.

• Sodium hyaluronate (3,000 ppm) – a form of hyaluronic acid that helps attract and hold moisture in the upper layers of the skin.
• Sea buckthorn fruit water (57.8%) – replaces plain water as the base, adding a nourishing, vitamin-rich feel to every application.
• Visibly plumper skin – COSRX designed it to improve the look of plumpness and give a youthful, bouncy complexion.
• Gentle formula – free of artificial colouring, artificial fragrance and essential oils, which matters for easily irritated skin.
• Generous 100g jar – a little goes a long way, so one jar lasts for months of daily use.

Intensive Cream vs a Lightweight Gel Moisturizer

Unlike a typical gel moisturizer, which mostly delivers water and evaporates quickly in dry indoor air, this cream is thick and cushioning, so it seals hydration in rather than just adding it. It also differs from the brand's COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence: the essence is a watery hydrating step that goes on earlier, while the Intensive Cream is the final layer that keeps that hydration from fading. Despite its rich feel, it is described as leaving no greasy film.

Why Kuwait Skin Needs a Richer Cream in AC Season

In Kuwait, skin spends most of the day in air-conditioning: at home, in the car, in offices and malls. That cool, dry air quietly pulls water from the skin, so even oily skin can feel tight by the evening. In winter, from December to February, cooler and drier desert air adds to the problem, and flaky patches around the nose and cheeks become common.

A cream with real staying power helps here. Use it every night all year, and in the cooler months in the morning too. During the 45°C summer, oily skin may prefer it as a night-only cream and a lighter gel by day. Explore more options in our dry and dehydrated skin collection.

How to Use COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream

1. Cleanse your face and pat it dry.
2. Apply your toner and essence or serum as usual.
3. Take a small amount of cream, as a little goes a long way.
4. Spread it over the face, avoiding the eye and mouth area.
5. Gently tap the cream into the skin until it is absorbed.

Use it as the last step of your evening routine, and in the morning before sunscreen if your skin is dry. Because it is rich, start with a pea-sized amount and add more only to drier areas. It layers well over hydrating essences and treatment serums such as vitamin C or retinol, helping to cushion those steps. As with any new product, patch test first if your skin reacts easily.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream good for oily skin?

It can be. The cream is rich but described as non-greasy, so many oily skin types use it at night, especially when air-conditioning leaves skin tight. In the hottest months, apply a thin layer or keep it for evenings only.

Can I use COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream with retinol or vitamin C?

Yes. It contains no strong actives, so it pairs well with retinol, vitamin C or exfoliating acids. Apply those first, let them absorb, then finish with this cream to help keep skin comfortable and hydrated.
