Hyaluronic Acid - Your Skin Champion

We all want a good skin care product that will plump, hydrate and brighten our skin .Hyaluronic Acid will help you achieve this so what is it and why should we be using products that contain this incredible moisture retaining property?

Here’s everything you need to know

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a natural component of the skin, it binds and retains water molecules boosting our skins hydration but as we age our HA levels deplete leading to drier and tired skin.

Even though it is called an acid, it is not like other acids such as glycolic, lactic and salicylic acids and wont exfoliate your skin

You are going to see best results if you use it regularly, morning and night followed by a vitamin A moisturiser to lock everything in and ramp up the production of your skin’s natural HA.

HA suits all skin types but particularly skins that are dry and/or dehydrated. Topical application is essential but you need to know what you are looking for. HA is available in different molecular weights and while many brands tell you their products contain HA, the molecules are often too big to penetrate the skin.

Environ ® products such as HA Hydrating Serum have been engineered so that the molecules are small enough to reach the lower layers of the skin.

HA can also be taken orally and has shown to have fantastic benefits for the skin. Research shows significant improvement to wrinkle depth, skin luminosity and suppleness alongside increasing synthesis of our body’s own supply.

We need to replace HA daily and the best way to do this is to make sure the skin has adequate levels of Vitamin A as it is one of the most powerful stimulants of HA
