What is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring polysaccharide in skin that can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. As we age, natural HA levels decline, leading to dryness and visible fine lines. Topical HA dramatically improves surface hydration.
The Molecular Weight Difference
High-molecular-weight HA sits on the skin surface reducing water evaporation. Low-molecular-weight HA penetrates more deeply. The best serums combine multiple molecular weights. The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 is a strong example.
How to Use It Correctly
Apply to slightly damp skin within 30 seconds of washing your face. Hyaluronic acid pulls moisture from the nearest source — on dry skin with no humidity, it can pull from deeper layers. Always seal with moisturiser to lock in hydration.
