Hyaluronic Acid

What Is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a humectants in skincare, meaning it draws moisture into the skin and holds it there. Naturally found in the skin, this molecule can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it essential for maintaining a plump, hydrated, and healthy-looking complexion.

As we age, our natural levels of hyaluronic acid decrease, leading to dryness, fine lines, and dullness. That’s where topical hyaluronic acid comes in, as it helps to replenish the skin’s moisture reserves and support long-term skin hydration.

Why Use Hyaluronic Acid in Skincare?

Whether your skin is dry, oily, sensitive or combination, hyaluronic acid is the perfect ingredient for hydration, without clogging pores or feeling heavy.

Unlike thick creams or occlusives, hyaluronic acid delivers lightweight hydration that penetrates into multiple layers of the skin and helps improve the performance of your other skincare products by allowing better absorption and supporting barrier function.

For dehydrated or tight-feeling skin, a well-formulated hyaluronic acid serum before the moisturiser can be a game changer.
