Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in our body, the problem is that its presence decreases over the years .

This molecule helps fill in fine lines and wrinkles, giving our skin a plump appearance, which is why it's the most widely used moisturizer in cosmetics. What's behind this effect? ​​Hyaluronic acid can retain up to 1,000 times its weight in water —yes, you read that right, up to 1,000 times! This makes it the best ally for filling and preventing wrinkles and fine lines, minimizing the appearance of pores, and adding radiance.

Hyaluronic acid injections are widely known for their use in cosmetic procedures. At SKINVITY, we're not big fans, and while they might be a solution in certain cases, we actually have a simpler and more affordable way to prevent aging by providing that essential hyaluronic acid in cosmetic form .

The main drawback of this acid is that it is a large and heavy molecule, which makes it difficult for it to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin; however, cosmetic science has managed to reduce this molecular weight to improve its penetration in the case of some cosmetics.

Applied in the morning, hyaluronic acid protects the epidermis from sun damage and other harmful agents such as pollution. According to Gema Herrerías, the ideal morning routine is to apply it after vitamin C, but if you want extra hydration, it's best to apply it before vitamin C.

At night, it provides hydration to the cell regeneration process and works at peak efficiency since the skin is not affected by external agents at this time. It is recommended to lightly dampen the face, apply the acid, and then seal it in with a good moisturizer.

In short, the effect is temporary but real, and that has made it one of the star ingredients in the cosmetics industry .
