Keeps your skin healthy even if you spend a lot of time in the sun. The sun's heat dries out areas of unprotected skin and ultraviolet (UV) radiation can cause burning and photoaging.
INGREDIENT
Hyaluronic Acid for Skin
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural component of the skin and a potent hydrating ingredient, as its humectant properties allow it to bind to 1,000 times its weight in water. This excellent moisturizer is commonly incorporated in lotions, sheet masks, and serums to promote supple, healthy skin.

What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid, or hyaluronan, is the most abundant glycosaminoglycan found in the human dermis. This long-chain sugar molecule is also produced in the eyes, connective tissue, and joints. Hyaluronic acid maintains the skin’s natural moisture barrier, has anti-inflammatory effects, and repairs damage tothe body after injury. Since HA production gradually declines as we get older, replacing it topically canhelp replenish moisture.
What are the benefits of hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid for skin works wonderfully for hydrating dry and mature complexions and as an anti-aging component. It improves texture -- keeping the skin moist, dewy, and youthful-looking. Due to its water-binding and retaining capacity, HA fills in wrinkles and fine lines, providing a noticeable plumped-up effect. HA products formulated with a lower molecular weight can more easily penetrate the skin to deliver moisture and volume.
Best for these skin types
Oily skin
Hyaluronic acid allows oil glands to quit working overtime and provide just the amount of oil your skin requires to stay glowing and radiant.
Combination skin
Hyaluronic acid is a lightweight formulation that feels weightless on skin, while still providing the moisture it needs.
Dry skin
It is great for dry skin due to its hydrating and anti-aging properties.
Helps with these environmental & lifestyle factors
Keeps your skin hydrated and supple by locking in moisture even if you live in a region with dry air. Air that lacks humidity tends to dry skin out and cause itching, flaking or cracking of the skin.
Helps fight the effects of pollution on your skin. Polluted air contains small nanoparticles which cause premature aging. Clinical studies show that people with low pollution exposure levels have brighter, healthier, more radiant looking skin.
Calibrated for every age
It refines the skin, making it smoother, creating a more even skin tone, a brighter appearance, and gives you radiant skin from within.
It is a perfect fit to address the primary skin care concerns for people in their 20s and early 30s. Make it a part of your regular skin care routine for healthy, beautiful skin.
This is a great time to make it a part of your skincare routine as you start thinking about incorporating more ingredients with anti-aging benefits.
It is a great bet for consistent, everyday incorporation in your skincare routine as it not only will tighten up your anti-aging regimen but also help you achieve firmer, more youthful skin.
As skin matures, it tends to lose hydration and feel dry. This helps hydrate and plump the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Works well with these other ingredients
Hyaluronic acid can be layered with other skincare ingredients for optimum results. This hydrating substance pairs well with Vitamin C, ceramides, antioxidants, lactic acid, and Alpha hydroxyl acids (AHA), among others. Research also shows that HA applied after retinol may help combat irritation and increase product penetration.

What is hyaluronic acid found in?
Hyaluronic acid is found in the extracellular matrix of human tissues. Quality hyaluronic acid used inscience-based skincare products is extracted from plant-based microbial fermentation in a laboratory setting. This lab-based version is formulated with lower molecular weights for better penetration intothe dermis.
Is hyaluronic acid suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, hyaluronic acid is non-irritating and perfect for those with sensitive or acne-prone skin. It does notclog pores or trigger breakouts. Research has shown that HA can help calm inflammatory skinconditions, including rosacea, erythema, scaliness, and allergic reactions.

Getting the most from hyaluronic acid
A few small habits help hyaluronic acid draw and hold moisture where your skin needs it.
- Apply to damp skin Smooth it on right after cleansing, while skin is still slightly damp. That gives the humectant water to bind, so it locks moisture in rather than pulling it from the surface.
- Layer it early Use it after cleansing and exfoliating, before heavier moisturizers or sunscreen. Sealing it under a richer cream helps hold the hydration in place.
- Use morning and night Applied twice daily, hyaluronic acid keeps drawing moisture from the deeper layers of skin. With continued use it helps soften the look of fine lines and supports a smoother texture.
- Pair it with actives Hyaluronic acid plays well with almost everything, including ceramides, vitamin C, and AHAs. It is non-comedogenic and gentle enough for sensitive and acne-prone skin.
- Match it to your skin Whether hyaluronic acid belongs in your routine depends on your hydration levels and environment. The Skin Genome Quiz reads those factors and builds a formula around them.
