Hyaluronic Acid – Dewy Skin's Best Kept Secret

What is Hyaluronic Acid?

Despite sounding like something from a chemistry lab, hyaluronic acid is one of the most skin-loving ingredients you can find. Naturally produced by our bodies, it acts like a sponge, attracting and holding moisture within the skin. In fact, just one gram of hyaluronic acid can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water.

As we age, our skin's natural reserves of hyaluronic acid decline, leading to dryness, fine lines, and dullness. Thankfully, this powerhouse ingredient can be replenished topically, delivering visible hydration and a soft, plump glow.

Key Benefits for Skin

  • Intense Hydration: Delivers an instant boost of moisture by drawing water into the skin.
  • Plumping Effect: Smooths the appearance of fine lines for a more youthful, dewy look.
  • Soothing for All Skin Types: Non-irritating and gentle, even for sensitive or acne-prone skin.
  • Supports Skin Barrier: Helps improve skin resilience and maintain a healthy moisture barrier.

How to Use It

  1. Apply to damp skin: Hyaluronic acid performs best when used on slightly moist skin—try misting before applying.
  2. Seal it in: Always follow with a moisturiser or face oil to lock in hydration.
  3. Use morning and night: Suitable for daily use in both AM and PM routines.

Tip: It also works beautifully under makeup to create a smooth, hydrated base.
