What’s the hype about Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a clear substance that is naturally occurring within our skin, joints and eyes. The primary function of hyaluronic acid is a lubricant and to retain the skins moisture level. When we use topical skincare or supplements containing hyaluronic acid, it can boost the skins glow and hydration.

The hyaluronic acid within the skin can be depleted by harmful environmental aggressors known as free radicals. Also, as we age, our natural hyaluronic acid levels decline, and we see a drop in hydration levels resulting in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and dull uneven skin tone.

Incorporating topical hyaluronic acid into your skincare regimen does not interfere with the use of other powerful ingredients such as retinols and Vitamin C. Hyaluronic acid can be used both in the morning and the evening for additional benefit and come in a variety of different formulations, such as serums, toning sprays and moisturisers.
