Hyaluronic Acid (HA)

Hyaluronic Acid (HA)
naturally produced in our bodies (skin joints, and elsewhere)

we produce less as we age

therefore we lose volume in face

2 main functions: hydration + plumping/increasing elasticity

most facial fillers are hyaluronic acid in varying sized molecules

if use an HA serum then seal in with moisturizer

use 1-2 times daily

Listed as Sodium Hyaluronate in skincare ingredient lists and also 2 derivatives 🧪 🔬
Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate
Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate (smaller)

IMO best in moisturizers! Everyone can use for hydration.

🌟 spend the extra money for more expensive products if for anti-aging purposes
