Deep Hydration & Plumping

Overview

A naturally occurring polysaccharide in the human body that can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. In skincare, it acts as a premier humectant, drawing moisture from the environment into the skin. We utilize multi-molecular weight hyaluronic acid to ensure surface plumping as well as deep-tissue hydration.
A moisture magnet that draws water into your skin to make it bouncy, smooth, and deeply hydrated. High molecular weight HA forms a breathable film on the skin's surface, preventing moisture evaporation and instantly smoothing fine lines. Low molecular weight HA penetrates the deeper layers of the epidermis, providing sustained hydration, teaching the skin to hold its own water, and restoring internal volume and bounce.
