Scarlett Johansson has stunning skin and since I've been uncovering the budget buys celebrities love, I'm not surprised to hear that her makeup artist Frankie Boyd uses a $15 serum on the daily to keep Scarlett's skin super plump and crazily flawless.

The 40-year-old, who's married so SNL comedian Colin Jost, uses a serum from The Inkey List. Scarlett is said to use the brand's Hyaluronic Acid Serum in her daily routine, a serum that the brand says helps to make other skincare work harder. As long as its our skincare working harder, rather than us, we're all for it.

  • Scarlett Johansson's beauty bag includes The Inkey List's Hyaluronic Acid Serum.
  • Her makeup artist Frankie Boyd is said to use the hydrating serum on Scarlett, 40.
  • Amazon shoppers call it "amazing value for money".

It's a number one bestseller on the brand's website, and I can see why; the price is incredible, at $15, and Hyaluronic Acid in skincare has long been lauded for its plumping, hydrating and lightweight properties.

Formulated with 2% multi-molecular Hyaluronic Acid, this moisture-binding serum absorbs quickly into the skin, and the brand explains that the "high and low molecular weight HA helps the serum deliver hydration across multiple layers of the skin's surface."

It's great for all skin types, and is non-tacky so you won't find your products layered on top pill or flake.

The brand suggests this product is used as the second step in your beauty routine. Apply to skin post-cleansing, before applying any further serums, moisturizers and SPF on top. You can use it at night too, and is a great one to keep in your cabinet for those days your skin is feeling tight or dehydrated.

Scarlett's said to also use The Inkey List's Caffeine Eye Cream, the same eye product Reese Witherspoon is a fan of.

What's the fuss about The Inkey List Hyaluronic Acid Serum?

There's hundreds of Hyaluronic Acid products on the market, and I'm intrigued to see what sets this one apart. The price is a big factor, according to verified shoppers, who call it "amazing value for money" and a "bargain".

Out of 2,500 reviews on The Inkey List website, it scores 4.7 out of 5, so is wholly popular. There's a number of pictures of fans using the product, and their skin all looks dewy, glowy and hydrated with many saying it's the one product they always reorder.

On the negative side, there's not many comments. The only negative point I could find more than once was that some users found the formula sticky, but I think it really depends on personal preference and skin type to know if this is something you'd find too.
