Hyaluronic acid is a molecule that plays a crucial role in keeping our skin hydrated and elastic. This substance is naturally produced in soft tissues and is essential for attracting and retaining water in the skin.
However, when it comes to topical applications in cosmetics, the molecular size of hyaluronic acid can be a limiting factor. The molecule is too large to penetrate deeply into the skin, often resulting in a sticky feeling on the surface. This happens because the molecule remains on the surface and cannot reach the deeper layers where it is most needed.
To address this issue, scientists have developed low molecular weight (LMW) hyaluronic acid through the hydrolysis of the entire molecule. This process breaks the molecule into smaller fragments, making it more easily absorbable by the skin.
Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid can penetrate deeper into the skin, where it can hydrate, brighten, and smooth it.
Some may wonder if there are any concerns about using LMW hyaluronic acid since it doesn’t utilize the entire molecule. It’s important to note that the body has the necessary enzymes to use it effectively, as it is a naturally occurring molecule.
In conclusion, using LMW hyaluronic acid in skincare products can provide more significant benefits compared to formulations with high molecular weight hyaluronic acid.
By choosing products that contain LMW hyaluronic acid, you can ensure your skin receives the deep hydration and nourishment it needs to remain healthy and radiant.
What makes our formula highly effective is its simplicity. You’ll notice that the ingredient list is very short, with hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid among the top three ative ingredients, indicating the maximum concentration possible. Our serum is dense yet not sticky, absorbs quickly, and provides a real cosmetic effect. It can be applied to lips, around the eyes, and on the neck, leaving the skin looking radiant and healthy.
INGREDIENT LIST: aqua (water), glycerin, phytic acid, benzyl alcohol, dehydroacetic acid , hydrolized hyaluronic acid, sodium hyaluronate, sodium hydroxide
We recommend applying it 5 to 10 minutes before a rich and nourishing cream like IMMUNO 6, or a gentle under-makeup cream like BIOCREMA eye contour.
