Hyaluronic Acid, the key to Healthy Hydration
Let's begin by explaining what Hyaluronic acid actually is. This wonderful element of specialized skincare cosmetics is a proponent of hydration and retention of moisture in the skin. The skin
produces this naturally in order to retain moisture, but adding to the natural amount is beneficial rather than harmful, as it helps your skin keep moisture levels that are the most ideal for staying healthy and flawless. Aging and environmental damage have your skin suffering the consequences and looking and feeling worse for wear, but
cosmetics with Hyaluronic acid help push off these signs of wear on your skin, giving it the glowy, flexible, healthy moisture and function that helps you stay youthful looking and feeling.
UV exposure and free radicals degrade the quality of the hyaluronic acid that is naturally produced in the skin, so replenishing the supply increases its ability to keep in the moisture it needs. Hyaluronic acid can hold up to 6000 times its weight in water, and is specialized to help retain a balanced amount of moisture without drowning the cells, so this smart ingredient is an incredibly valuable addition to your beauty regiment.
Moisture in the skin gives you many health and beauty benefits, such as improved tone, radiance and glow, and texture - making the skin soft and delightfully pillowy. Wrinkles and lines are diminished, and the skin retains its youthfulness and flexibility.
Hyaluronic acid works great of sensitive skin as well as oily or dry skin, it does not cause break outs and can help any type and age of skin. Additionally, study says that it may act as an anti-
oxidant as well, protecting the skin from free radicals and the negative elements of the environment.
Completely safe, despite the unnerving name, this is an acid that does not harm or strip the skin and applied topically only benefits the health of the skin, the largest and most susceptible organ of the body.
As we age, our skin cells are able to produce less and less of this vital ingredient, and so replenishing the supply helps the skin appear and feel healthy and young for longer, combating signs of aging as it keeps the skin in its best possible condition. Helping you counter the tendency of the skin to lose moisture as it ages, hyaluronic acid is a wonderful addition to your skincare routine, a lovely and refreshing drink for the skin.
Dermatologist Dr. Magovern tells us that hyaluronic acid is technically a protein called glycosaminoglycan, which is produced in the skin, but less of it is produced over time and so serums and creams with it can help supplement the production naturally happening in the skin and keep the skin smooth and soft.
Used in your skincare routine twice or so daily, the aid of hyaluronic acid is also maximized by making sure you are drinking enough water, avoiding damage to the skin with over-scrubbing or too much sun and elements exposure. It's also important to be consistent with the skincare routine for best results.
A buzzword in skincare cosmetics, hyaluronic acid is a word thrown around in the spa and cosmetics world, and for good reason. Its benefits for the skin are terrific and give the skin the healthy glow and smooth texture that it had, maintaining its youth and keeping it appropriately moisturized. A naturally occurring element in the skin, it helps it keep moisturized and protected from the elements, and slows and minimizes the aging process of the skin. It has an alarming name, but it is a wonderful choice to incorporate into your daily skincare routine. Combined with other skincare ingredients, you are sure to give yourself a spa treatment that is enjoyable and also beneficial long term for your skin health.
