Information
Hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate is a derivative of sodium hyaluronate, a salt form of hyaluronic acid. This ingredient is known for its powerful hydrating properties and is commonly used in skincare products for moisture and skin texture. The hydrolyzed form has a lower molecular weight, allowing it to penetrate the skin more deeply compared to regular sodium hyaluronate or hyaluronic acid.
Where does it come from?
Sodium hyaluronate is derived from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in the human body, particularly in the skin, connective tissues, and joints. In skincare, sodium hyaluronate is typically produced through fermentation. The hydrolyzed form of sodium hyaluronate is created by breaking down the larger molecules of sodium hyaluronate into smaller fragments, making it ideal for topical application by allowing deeper penetration into the skin.
What are the benefits?
What are the benefits?
- Deep Hydration: Due to its smaller molecular size, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate can penetrate deeper layers of the skin, providing long-lasting hydration. This can plump the skin, minimize the appearance of maturing skin, and create a smoother, more youthful complexion.
- Enhanced Skin Absorption: The smaller molecules of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate are easily absorbed by the skin, ensuring that the hydrating and nourishing effects reach deeper layers for more effective results.
- Improved Skin Elasticity: By delivering moisture deep into the skin, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate contributes to skin elasticity and tautness, and targets sagging and tone.
- Barrier Support: Hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate can strengthen the skin’s natural barrier by maintaining optimal hydration levels. This makes the skin more resilient against environmental factors and locks in moisture.
- Soothing and Calming: This ingredient has a soothing effect on the skin, making it ideal for sensitive or irritated skin. It can minimize redness while keeping the skin calm and hydrated.
