In skincare, hyaluronic acid is an ingredient worth its weight in hydration gold.
While its name may sound scary, it is, in fact,something wonderful for your skin, especially during the cooler months.
Hyaluronic acid, also known as Sodium Hyaluronate, is a huge sugar molecule that your body makes every day.
Is a naturally occurring substance in the skin and holds 1,000 times its weight in moisture.
So whilst using skincare products with hyaluronic acid is key all year round, what are the specific benefits of using it in the winter?
Basically, the cold temperatures, low humidity levels, harsh winds and indoor heat result in dry air that draws moisture out of the skin, and that’s where hyaluronic acid makes a huge difference:
Skin hydration
Hyaluronic acid keeps your skin hydrated and feeling moisturized and glowing.
Anti-wrinkle agent
Hyaluronic acid has the capacity to retain large quantities of water, helps the skin stay moisturized, helps with elasticity and prevents further development of wrinkles.
So you get to the the next Spring and Summer wrinkle-free and glowing!
Antioxidant
It helps keep the Skin looking healthy.
