Hyaluronic Acid

What is it

What is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring sugar molecule found throughout the skin, joints, and connective tissue. In skin, it is the primary moisture-retaining molecule - healthy, youthful skin is characterized by high concentrations of HA in the dermis. As we age, natural HA production declines, contributing to loss of plumpness and hydration. Applied topically, HA draws moisture from the environment and deeper skin layers into the surface.

Benefits

What does Hyaluronic Acid do for your skin?

One of the most effective humectants in skincare, HA binds significant moisture and supports barrier function across all skin types. Key actions include:

  • Attracts and binds moisture to the skin for lasting hydration
  • Temporarily plumps fine lines and wrinkles for a smoother appearance
  • Supports barrier function and reduces transepidermal water loss
  • Compatible with all skin types, including oily and acne-prone
  • Works synergistically with ceramides, peptides, and other actives

HA is found in serums, moisturizers, and essences designed for both morning and evening use. For maximum hydration, apply to slightly damp skin - the molecule draws in more moisture when water is present.
