Hyaluronic Acid is a beauty buzzword because of its hydrating & plumping ability however, lately, some beauty influencers are ditching it. So I thought I’d do a little Hyaluronic Acid 101 💦
Here are 3 facts you may not know about
#HA:
1. Our bodies naturally produce HA. 50% of it is found in our skin and it helps keep us looking hydrated and plump.
2. As we age, our bodies are constantly breaking down HA. By the time you reach your 40’s you produce half of the HA that you used to. This is why HA fillers like Restylane and Juvederm are great options for aging lips and cheeks.
3. HA is a powerful humectant holding up to 1,000x its weight in water, making it the perfect all day moisturizer.
