MATKAS Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum 1 fl oz — 2% Niacinamide, Peptide Firming Hydration for Dry & Sensitive Skin

MATKAS Korean Firming Boost is a lightweight hyaluronic acid serum that hydrates deeply, firms the skin with targeted peptides, and evens tone with 2% niacinamide.

This serum blends multiple actives in a fast-absorbing base to deliver moisture, skin-firming support, and a brighter, smoother appearance without heavy oils or fragrances. Formulated to layer under moisturizer and makeup, it uses hyaluronic acid for hydration, niacinamide and panthenol for barrier support and tone correction, and a peptide complex plus adenosine and beta-glucan to help skin look firmer and more resilient. The texture leaves a velvet finish suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin.

How does this serum hydrate without feeling sticky?

The formula centers on hyaluronic acid, a humectant that draws and binds water to the surface layers of the skin while drying down to a non-greasy, velvet finish. Lightweight emollients and a pH-appropriate base ensure the serum absorbs quickly and layers smoothly under other products.

• Hyaluronic acid for multi-layer hydration
• Panthenol (vitamin B5) to soothe and retain moisture
• Alcohol- and fragrance-free for minimal irritation
• Velvet finish that sits well under makeup

What ingredients help with firmness and visible texture?

MATKAS combines an 8-peptide complex with adenosine and beta-glucan to support the skin’s structural appearance. While topical products don’t change skin biology instantly, this blend aims to improve the look of elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines with consistent use.

• Collagen-targeted peptides to promote a firmer-looking surface
• Adenosine to support smoothness and texture
• Beta-glucan for resilience and skin-conditioning benefits
• Compatible with morning and evening routines

Will the niacinamide and panthenol help my uneven tone and sensitivity?

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) is included at 2% to help refine skin tone and minimize the appearance of discoloration, while panthenol calms and supports the barrier. Together they can help skin look more even and comfortable when applied regularly as part of a full routine.

• 2% niacinamide for brightening and texture improvement
• Panthenol to soothe and reduce redness-prone reactions
• Free from essential oils and parabens to lower irritation risk
• Safe to layer with moisturizers, SPF, and most actives

How should I use this serum in my daily skincare routine?

Apply one ampoule to clean, slightly damp skin morning and night, then pat until absorbed. Use it alone or under your favorite moisturizer and sunscreen for daytime protection; it also works well beneath makeup thanks to its lightweight finish.

• Apply to damp skin for best hyaluronic performance
• Use once or twice daily depending on hydration needs
• Layer under moisturizer and SPF in the morning
• Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight

Who is this for: MATKAS Korean Firming Boost works well for anyone seeking a hydrating, non-greasy serum that targets loss of firmness, uneven tone, and daytime dryness. It’s suitable for dry, normal, combination, and sensitive skin types and for users who prefer fragrance-free, lightweight products that integrate easily into multi-step routines. If you use active treatments like retinoids or exfoliating acids, this serum can be added to help with hydration and barrier support, but patch testing is recommended when combining multiple actives.
