4 Trending Skin-Care Ingredients to Try in 2022 (Plus How to Try Them For Under $15)

Hyaluronic acid, a humectant praised for its hydrating and plumping abilities, has been a major skin-care ingredient trend for years now — and it doesn't show any signs of slowing down.

You can find it in a bevy of skin-care products, but it frequently shows up in products designed to fight off dryness and give the skin a supple appearance.

If you want to give HA a shot, consider the e.l.f Cosmetics Holy Hydration! Fragrance Free Face Cream ($12). The lightweight, nongreasy formula works to hydrate and plump up the skin with this key ingredient. The newly launched e.l.f. Cosmetics Pure Skin Moisturizer ($12) also features a hyaluronic acid-infused, fragrance-free formula and is noncomedogenic.
