For great-looking skin, you get out what you put in. Along with drinking plenty of water and having a healthy diet, it means choosing skincare products that penetrate deeply for intense moisturization like those with hyaluronic acid.
Skincare serums containing the same substances as those found naturally in the skin can be super effective. Hyaluronic acid is one such substance, and the skincare world is loving it right now. With a bit of inside knowledge, it becomes clear why.
Hyaluronic acid or HA is what’s known as a humectant. This term refers to any substance that retains moisture, and HA does that incredibly well. HA can bind or hold on to over 100 times its weight in water.
Your skin contains plenty of HA when you’re very young, but you produce less and less of it as you get older. This natural reduction leads to less-hydrated skin, so it feels thinner and drier and looks dull. Using skincare products containing hyaluronic acid means you’re naturally topping up your own body’s way of keeping the skin moist. It’s a purifying skincare routine that speaks for itself with glowing, beautiful results.
Because hyaluronic acid is naturally found in the face, many high-quality skincare products use HA for the following benefits:
You’ll often find this product in age complex products or billed as an age interrupter, and that’s because the intense moisturizing action helps to fill fine lines and crows’ feet. Look out for HA in age eye complex products designed specifically for smoothing the lines around tired eyes. Other useful benefits include the fact that pregnant and breastfeeding folks can use HA products topically (on the skin) without concern. HA is also well tolerated by anyone with sensitive skin. That’s a boon for those who spend hours trying to find products that moisturize deeply but don’t cause irritation or redness.
As people become more focused on a natural, glowing look, no-makeup skincare lines are more popular than ever. But that means finding products that genuinely boost the skin’s moisture and firmness. HA ticks the box, providing users with a natural glow that doesn’t need to hide under layers of makeup. HA serums and lotions are easy and enjoyable to apply, unlike the alternative of HA injections.
One of the advantages of 101 Cosmetics hyaluronic acid products is that they utilize different molecular weights. Don’t worry; it’s not as complicated as it sounds! Basically, hyaluronic acid molecules of different sizes do different yet wonderful things to your skin – with science. The smaller molecules, or those with lower weight, penetrate deep into the skin structure for hydration right from the foundation. The higher-weight molecules hydrate the surface layers to help smooth and firm your skin.
The Hyalu4Deep complex also contains ultra-low-weight hyaluronic acid molecules that go as deep as possible into your skin layers, promoting collagen and elastin fibers for toned and elastic skin.
Now you know why everyone is raving about hyaluronic acid serums! Try it yourself and go from “glow hour” to glow all the time!
