Hyaluronic Acid

What is Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid is a remarkable, human-inspired ingredient that occurs naturally within our bodies. It is an essential element that performs vital functions across various organs—from providing lubrication in the eyes to limiting friction in the joints. The skin, however, contains the most significant quantities of Hyaluronic Acid, where it acts as a primary support for the skin matrix. As a powerful humectant, it has the extraordinary biological ability to hold up to 1,000 times its own weight in water, making it a "moisture sponge"

*Tips for you: If my skin already makes Hyaluronic Acid, why do I need to add it to my routine?

FAQ about Hyaluronic Acid

My skin already makes Hyaluronic Acid, why add it to my routine?
While our bodies do produce Hyaluronic Acid, the amount we make naturally decreases as we age. This reduction can weaken the skin's barrier, leading to moisture loss, dryness, and the appearance of fine lines. Topping up your levels with well-formulated products helps to counteract this decline, ensuring your skin remains hydrated, plump, and protected.

Can I use Hyaluronic Acid with other active ingredients like Vitamin C?
Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin C work beautifully together. This combination helps boost radiance while keeping the skin plump and smooth. For the best results, it is recommended to apply your Vitamin C product first to brighten and protect, and then layer Hyaluronic Acid on top to lock in moisture.

I know it's great for skin, but what does Hyaluronic Acid do for hair?
Inspired by its success in skincare, we've harnessed the power of Hyaluronic Acid for hair, especially for curls! In our Fructis Curls Method range, it is the star of our Hyaluronic Moisture Complex. It acts as a moisture magnet, attracting and holding up to 1,000 times its weight in water. This intense hydration transforms dry, brittle hair into soft, supple, and beautifully defined curls by smoothing the hair fiber and reducing frizz.

How do I know if my skin or hair is dehydrated?
For Your Skin: Dehydrated skin lacks water, which often results in: a dull, less radiant complexion due to poor light reflection; a feeling of tightness and loss of plumpness; a weakened skin barrier, making it more vulnerable to external aggressors. For Your Hair: Just like skin, hair shows clear signs when it's thirsty: increased frizz, as the hair tries to absorb moisture from the air; a dry and dull appearance with a rough texture; hair that is unmanageable, lacks definition, and is prone to breakage.

I want a glowing routine. How do I get it with Hyaluronic Acid?
For a radiant, glowing look, the key is to pair Hyaluronic Acid with Vitamin C. This combination works beautifully to boost radiance while keeping the skin plump and smooth.
