What is Hyaluronic Acid and How Does Hyaluronic Acid Work?

Hyaluronic Acid occurs naturally in the body but also in an ingredient used in makeup and skincare products. It is known for its ability to help retain moisture in the skin by holding up to 1000 times its weight in water. This makes it a key ingredient for immediate hydration and plumpness.

Hyaluronic acid works by attracting water. It takes moisture from the environment and/or deeper skin layers and brings it to the skin's surface. This process creates that hydrated, plumping effect which can also help smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. The molecules that remain on the outer layer strengthen the skin's barrier and prevent it from environmental stressors and pollutants.

What Skin Types Should Use Hyaluronic Acid?

Those with mature skin tend to use hyaluronic acid for its plumping effect and ability to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. In simpler terms, hyaluronic acid makes the skin appear more youthful. Individuals with all skin types can benefit from this ingredient.
