Ingredients we Love: Hyaluronic Acid
- 2 min reading time
Hydrate, plump, soften—if there’s one ingredient that should never be missing from your skincare routine, it’s hyaluronic acid. This powerhouse is known for its intense hydration and is loved by both skincare newbies and experts. In this edition of ‘Ingredients We Love’, we dive into everything you need to know about hyaluronic acid and why your skin will love it too.
What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally found in your body and is best known for its ability to retain moisture. One molecule can hold up to a thousand times its weight in water—no wonder it’s a favorite in hydrating skincare products. As you age, the amount of hyaluronic acid in your skin decreases, which can lead to dryness, fine lines and loss of volume.
What does hyaluronic acid do for your skin?
Hyaluronic acid acts like a sponge in your skin: it attracts and retains moisture, making your skin appear fuller and smoother. Here are the key benefits:
- Intensely hydrates: ideal for dehydrated or dry skin.
- Improves skin texture: leaves skin soft and supple.
- Softens fine lines: gives a more plumped appearance.
- Supports the skin barrier: helps lock in moisture.
What skin type is hyaluronic acid suitable for?
The great thing about hyaluronic acid is that it’s suitable for every skin type. From extremely dry to oily, and from sensitive to combination skin: this ingredient hydrates without feeling greasy or heavy. Even the most sensitive skin types tolerate hyaluronic acid well. Use it in the morning under your day cream and in the evening under your night care for a maximum moisture boost.
How to use hyaluronic acid in your routine
Always apply hyaluronic acid to slightly damp skin. This helps draw in water and prevents it from pulling moisture out of your skin. Follow with a cream or oil to lock in hydration. Feel free to combine hyaluronic acid with other active ingredients like niacinamide or vitamin C—it works well in almost every routine.
Hyaluronic acid in different products
You’ll find hyaluronic acid in all kinds of skincare products these days. Think serums, moisturizers, sheet masks, and even foundations. Products with a high concentration or multiple molecular weights of hyaluronic acid are especially effective, as they hydrate both on the surface and deeper in the skin.
