- How does hyaluronic acid hydrate the skin?
Hyaluronic acid is a powerful humectant that attracts and binds water to the skin's surface. Naturally found in the skin, it helps replenish moisture, improve hydration, and leave skin feeling smoother, softer, and more supple. - How does hyaluronic acid support the skin barrier?
Well-hydrated skin is better able to maintain its natural moisture barrier. By helping the skin retain water, hyaluronic acid supports barrier function, reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and promotes healthy-looking skin. - Can hyaluronic acid be used on all skin types?
Yes. Hyaluronic acid is generally suitable for all skin types, including dry, oily, combination, and sensitive skin. Because it is naturally present in the body and primarily functions as a hydrating ingredient, it layers well with most skincare products. - When should I use hyaluronic acid in my skincare routine?
Apply hyaluronic acid after cleansing and before heavier creams or oils, following the directions on the product label. For best results, apply it to slightly damp skin to help attract and retain moisture, then follow with a moisturizer to help lock in hydration. - What makes Swanson Hyaluronic Acid Serum unique?
