Hyaluronic acid is one of the most well-known hydrators, and is a likely active in most skincare cabinets. Despite its somewhat intimidating name, it is anything but harsh. In fact, it's a naturally occurring substance in the human body. The substance is another humectant and it is renowned for its ability to attract and retain moisture. So let's dive into why AMELIORATE loves hyaluronic acid and how we incorporate it into our formulas.
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
It is a gel-like substance found abundantly in the skin, connective tissues, and eyes. Its main claim to fame? Its incredible ability to hold up to 1000 times its weight in water. Yes, you read that right – 1000 times! This remarkable moisture-binding capacity makes hyaluronic acid a veritable hydration hero for your skin. But its benefits don't end there. Hyaluronic acid also plays a crucial role in maintaining skin elasticity, promoting wound healing, and defending against environmental aggressors.
Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid:
- Intense Hydration: Is your skin feeling thirsty? Hyaluronic acid can come to the rescue. As another humectant, the ingredient works because it draws moisture from the surrounding environment and deeper layers of the skin. Incorporating hyaluronic acid into your skincare routine with AMELIORATE can help restore suppleness, leaving your skin feeling soft, smooth, and thoroughly moisturized.
- Plumps Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Even those of us who want to age gracefully wouldn't mind some extra hydration. By binding moisture to the skin from within, it helps minimize the appearance of age-related creases and crevices, by adding extra plumpness and under the surfaces.
- Improves Skin Texture: Hyaluronic acid can help restore balance and radiance to your complexion, no matter what you're dealing with. Be it rough patches, uneven tone, or dullness, its hydrating properties nourish the skin's barrier. With regular use of ceramide-infused formulas, you'll notice a significant improvement in skin texture, as well as a newfound glow from within.
- Soothes and Calms Irritation: Got sensitive skin? hyaluronic acid is here to save the day. Its gentle, non-irritating formula makes it suitable for even the most delicate complexions, providing much-needed relief from redness, inflammation, and irritation. Whether you've overdone it with exfoliation or your skin is simply in need of some extra hydration, hyaluronic acid offers soothing comfort that won't cause further issues.
- Complements All Skin Types: One of the most remarkable aspects of hyaluronic acid is its versatility. Unlike some skincare ingredients that may be too harsh or congesting for certain skin types, hyaluronic acid is suitable for everyone. Whether you have oily, dry, combination, or sensitive skin, you can reap the benefits of this hydration hero without having to worry about irritation or blemishes.
