The Powerful Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid
Acid. Yikes. I don’t know about you, but it sounds …scary? And you want me to put it on my face!?
Yup. Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is actually something that our skin naturally produces. Its main function is to retain water and keep your skin and tissue well lubricated.
Benefit 1: Hydrated Skin
As I write this article the cold winter air is pounding on my window and I can’t think of a better time to focus on hydration. When your skin is hydrated it has a super soft feel (think baby’s butt) and looks much more radiant. #glowup
Benefit 2: Speeds up Healing
Hyaluronic Acid is a key player when it comes to healing. It can decrease pain faster and even reduce the size of your wounds! HA helps the healing process by telling your body to build more blood vessels in the damaged area.
Benefit 3: Diminished Appearance of Lines & Wrinkles - SIGN ME UP!
So this is for sure connected to benefit number one. When your skin is hydrated it naturally helps hide those age lines. When your skin is dehydrated all your wrinkles will be center stage and your skin can even look dull. Hyaluronic Acid keeps moisture locked in and quenches all the dry patches. wow. wow. wow.
Benefit 4: Protection
in addition to hydration-nation - Hyaluronic Acid is also full of antioxidants that will act like a shield. There are very few options we have in skin care that can protect you from the crap in the air. you won’t want to skip this step.
Benefit 5: An Acid for All
I know what your thinking, how can there be more good news. well it’s here. Hyaluronic Acid is an acid for all skin types. sensitive, breakout-prone, oily. it doesn’t matter. Hyaluronic Acid is for you and you need to get some in your life A$AP rocky.
