Hyaluronic Acid (HA), which has become the superstar of skincare in recent years, works like a moisture magnet, giving your skin fullness, elasticity, and a youthful appearance. So what exactly is this popular ingredient and why should it be in everyone's care routine?
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic Acid is actually a sugar molecule that is naturally found in our body, especially concentrated in our skin, joints, and eyes. Its most important feature is its capacity to hold up to 1000 times its weight in water. This makes it one of the most powerful moisturizing ingredients on the market.
What are its Benefits for the Skin?
- Intense Moisturization: It penetrates the deep layers of the skin, trapping water and ensuring the skin stays moist throughout the day. This is a lifesaver, especially for dry skin.
- Plumping Effect: By drawing moisture into the skin, it instantly plumps and smoothes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Strengthens the Skin Barrier: By providing the necessary moisture for a healthy skin barrier, it helps the skin to be more resistant to external factors.
- Suitable for All Skin Types: Since it does not leave a greasy feeling, it can be easily used by all skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin. It helps to establish the oil and moisture balance of the skin.
- Increases Skin Elasticity: It contributes to making the skin feel more flexible and firm.
How to Use?
Hyaluronic acid serums are generally applied to cleansed and slightly damp skin before moisturizer. Applying to slightly damp skin allows the serum to better draw moisture from the environment and the skin's surface. Pamper your skin with this miraculous ingredient, which we frequently resort to in our professional treatments to give the skin intense moisture and vitality.
