GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel is an ultra-light gel cream built around 10% sodium hyaluronate, one of the most effective forms of hyaluronic acid for deep hydration. Designed for skin that feels tight, parched, or stripped by active treatments, this formula pulls moisture into the skin and holds it there, giving dehydrated and mature complexions an immediate sense of relief and fullness. The texture is silky and weightless, absorbing quickly without any greasy residue.
Key Benefits
Deep, Lasting Hydration with 10% Sodium Hyaluronate Sodium hyaluronate at a generous 10% concentration draws water into the skin and binds it there, restoring moisture levels that leave skin feeling plump and comfortable throughout the day.
Protective Barrier Against Moisture Loss Dimethicone crosspolymer creates a breathable, silicone-based shield that helps prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL) so hydration stays locked in rather than evaporating.
Soothes Skin Irritated by Acne Treatments The lightweight, non-comedogenic gel format delivers calming hydration that offsets the tightness and flaking caused by drying acne treatments like benzoyl peroxide or retinoids.
Smooth, Weightless Finish Cyclopentasiloxane gives the gel its signature silky slip, so it layers effortlessly under sunscreen, moisturizer, or makeup without pilling or heaviness.
Supports Skin Healing and Recovery By keeping the skin consistently hydrated, this gel creates the optimal environment for the skin's natural repair process, helping compromised or sensitized skin bounce back faster.
If your skin constantly feels tight, rough, or thirsty no matter how much moisturizer you apply, this gel was made for you. It is ideal for dehydrated, mature, or sensitized skin that needs a reliable hydration boost without heavy textures.
This is also an excellent choice if you use active acne treatments like benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or retinoids that tend to leave skin feeling dry and irritated. The lightweight gel formula adds moisture back without clogging pores or interfering with your treatment routine.
Oily and combination skin types will appreciate the water-light finish. It provides real hydration without adding excess oil or shine.
If your acne treatments are leaving your skin feeling tight and flaky, apply a thin layer of this gel before your treatment product to create a hydration buffer, then follow with the treatment on top. This can reduce irritation without diluting the effectiveness of your actives.
Apply: After cleansing and toning, dispense 1-2 pumps onto fingertips.
Technique: Gently press and smooth the gel over the face, neck, and chest. Layer with your preferred moisturizer for additional nourishment.
Frequency: Use morning and evening. Always follow with SPF during daytime use.

What makes GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel different from a regular moisturizer?
Unlike traditional cream moisturizers that rely on oils and emollients, GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel uses 10% sodium hyaluronate to actively pull water into the skin and hold it there. The lightweight gel texture makes it ideal for layering under other products, and the dimethicone crosspolymer helps seal that hydration in without a heavy or greasy feel.
Is GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel good for acne-prone skin?
Yes. The oil-free, lightweight gel formula hydrates without clogging pores, making it a strong fit for acne-prone skin. It is especially helpful if your acne treatments are causing dryness, tightness, or irritation, because it restores moisture balance without interfering with active ingredients.
Can I use GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel under makeup?
Absolutely. The silky, fast-absorbing texture creates a smooth, hydrated base that sits well under makeup, sunscreen, or heavier moisturizers. It does not pill or leave a tacky finish.
How often should I use GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel?
It is designed for twice-daily use, morning and evening, after cleansing and toning. During the daytime, always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF. Consistent use helps maintain hydration levels and supports the skin's barrier over time.
Will GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel help with fine lines and wrinkles?
When skin is well-hydrated, fine lines and surface wrinkles appear less pronounced. The 10% sodium hyaluronate in this gel plumps the skin by drawing and retaining moisture, which can visibly soften the look of dehydration lines, especially with regular use.
Can I use GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel with retinol or other active treatments?
Yes. This gel pairs well with retinol, exfoliating acids, and other actives that can cause dryness or sensitivity. Apply the gel first to establish a hydrated base, or layer it on top of your treatment to help calm and cushion the skin.
Does GlyMed Plus Ultra Hydro Gel contain any fragrance?
No. The formula does not contain added fragrance, which makes it a comfortable choice for sensitive or reactive skin types that may be triggered by scented products.

Purchased this to use as an acne safe primer to use with my silicone based foundation! So far I am liking it!
So far so good
I've just started using this, and I like it so far. I have sensitive skin, and it hasn't caused any issues or break outs. I'm actually going to purchase my next bottle soon.
