More about Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid, also known as hyaluronan, is a clear, gooey substance that is naturally produced by the body. It is found in high concentrations in the skin, connective tissues, and eyes. In skincare, hyaluronic acid is used for its exceptional ability to retain moisture, keeping the skin well-hydrated and supple.
When applied topically, hyaluronic acid acts as a humectant, drawing moisture from the environment into the skin, and also helps to prevent trans-epidermal water loss. This makes it an effective ingredient for all skin types, including dry, oily, and sensitive skin.
Additionally, hyaluronic acid has antioxidant properties, which can help protect the skin from environmental aggressors and promote a youthful, radiant complexion. It is often included in serums, moisturizers, and masks, and can be used in both morning and nighttime skincare routines.
Benefits of hyaluronic acid in skincare:
- Intense hydration
- Plumping and firming effects
- Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
- Supports overall skin health and resilience
- Compatible with other skincare ingredients
