What is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic Acid is a humectant, which means it draws in and binds moisture. In fact, it can hold up to 1000x its own weight in water. A concentration of 1% Hyaluronic Acid can bind 99% water. That's a whole lot of moisture it can bring to your skin!
Hyaluronic acid is well known for its skin benefits, especially alleviating dry skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and speeding up wound healing. It can also help relieve joint pain in people with osteoarthritis.''
Hyaluronic acid will draw moisture from wherever it can find it to hydrate the surface of your face, including the deeper layers of your skin if there is no humidity in the air." Which is to say, too much hyaluronic acid can leave skin thirstier, and dehydration lines more prominent.
Ok But is it Safe to Use?
Can I use hyaluronic acid every day? Yup! And you can even use it twice a day as long as you're applying it to clean, damp skin, then locking it in with a moisturiser and face oil. ... Instead, think of hyaluronic acid as a team player that works best when used with a cream.
Studies show that long term use is safe, with no reported side effects from hyaluronic acid supplementation. Used as a topical skincare ingredient, hyaluronic acid is also well tolerated. Used as a dermal filler, hyaluronic acid may cause certain side effects, including pain, bruising, itching, redness and swelling.
Does it cause issues in combination with other ingredients?
It plays well with most ingredients from BHA's, AHA's to Retinols.

Hyaluronic Acid is the perfect ingredient for creating an environment where moisture can be kept in the layers of the stratum corneum. The key to this is that you need to use your hyaluronic acid serum with a MOISTURISING CREAM OR LOTION. This is key because Hyaluronic acid is very good at pulling moisture out of it's environment and holding it. Further more it is easily absorbed deeper into the layers at this concentration. This is why it's important to use a serum in conjunction with a moisturiser to get the BEST results.

Benefits of Using Concentrated Hyaluronic Acid:
Hyaluronic acid is used as a humectant. It does this by holding moisture and preventing water loss. It helps hydrate the outer layers of skin, thereby improving the skin's appearance. Skin that's hydrated is touted as being more radiant and youthful-looking.
Due to the hydration created by the hyaluronic acid. The skin layer becomes firmer and has an ability to fade creases and lines through hydration! It provides more hydration than simply your lotions and creams.
The more hydrated your top skin layer becomes, the fresher you look. This is because hydration is key for all bodily process's. Whether it's allowing your body to filter waste products better or allow the healing process's in your skin to occur, having your skin hydrated is key to a rejuvenated look.
Hyaluronic Acid are large molecules that do not penetrate the skin. As a result they sit on top of the skin absorbing moisture and aid your skin barrier from losing key elements of hydration through evaporation. While it's not the most important element of your skin barrier, hyaluronic acid plays a key role in creating hydration layer that disallows pathogenic material to enter past your skin barrier.
While Hyaluronic Acid creations an environment of hydration, Rose-Water reduces irritation.
It's important to allow Hyaluronic Acid to lock in moisture by applying one of our Facial Creams over the serum.
