What Is Hyaluronic Acid For Skin?

Hyaluronic Acid is a type of sugar naturally produced by the body. Found in high concentrations within the skin, Hyaluronic Acid is responsible for the skin’s plumpness and volume. It is also found in the fluid that surrounds the eyes and joints. Using hyaluronic acid skincare products is beneficial as the ingredient acts as a humectant, which means it can attract moisture and act like a sponge to retain up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it an excellent non-comedogenic hydrating agent. However, with age, the skin’s natural production of this ingredient declines, which is why it’s important to topically supplement the skin with hyaluronic acid products. Explore the CeraVe Hyaluronic Acid range that includes hyaluronic acid creams and other skincare products essential for maintaining the skin’s moisture balance and achieving a smooth skin texture.
