Faster absorbing than a kitchen sponge. More powerful hydration than a water hose. Able to attract and hold moisture in your skin.
It’s a sugar molecule!
It’s an emollient!
It’s Hyaluronic Acid!
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic Acid is the darling of skincare, it is used in serums and other skin care products to provide skin penetrating deep moisture and as a wrinkle reducer (3).
Hyaluronic Acid is a sugar molecule that naturally occurs in the body, mostly found in our skin and joints. It has the unique ability to attract and hold water into the skin, hydrating the skin and leaving it looking supple and smooth.
This molecule binds to water on one side and to collagen in the skin on the other. Tsippora Shainhouse, a dermatologist in Santa Monica, California in an article in Allure says HA simply “helps to bind water to collagen, trapping it in the skin, so that skin can appear plumper, dewier, and more hydrated." Who doesn’t want plump, hydrated skin?
Safe for all skin!
Hyaluronic Acid molecules are present in skin, helping to keep your skin hydrated. It is a safe, non-toxic ingredient found in many skin and hair care products. It is already in your skin and it absorbs quickly when applied, helping to keep skin in tip top condition from the inside out.
Not Just for Skin Care
It turns out that hyaluronic acid has more uses than moisturizing and making skin look great. Depending on what it is being used for, hyaluronic acid can be administered 3 ways: as a topical application, as a supplement, and as an injectable. Studies on hyaluronic acid’s other uses have all had promising results. It’s been shown to increase the rate wounds heal: relieve joint pain: relieve and heal damage from acid reflux: reduce dry eyes: improve bone strength: and even possibly relieve bladder pain.
