Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring polysaccharide found in the skin that helps to retain moisture and keep the skin hydrated. It is commonly used in skincare products as a humectant due to its ability to hold up to 1000 times its weight in water. In addition to hydration, HA has been shown to improve skin texture and smoothness, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promote skin elasticity. HA can also enhance the effectiveness of other active ingredients in skincare products. It is found in a variety of skincare products, including serums, moisturizers, and injectable fillers. It is generally considered safe for all skin types and can be used daily to improve overall skin health and appearance. However, individuals with sensitive skin may want to patch test the product before using it on a larger scale.
