Introducing Hyaluronic Acid
Discover the profound benefits of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a powerhouse of hydration for your skin. HA works tirelessly to promote skin that is plump, moisturized, and radiantly glowing.
Naturally occurring in our body, HA resides in our skin and connective tissues. Its primary role is water retention, ensuring our tissues stay hydrated and healthy. Its remarkable ability to hold large amounts of water—1,000 times its weight—solidifies its role as a superior skin hydrator. These moisture-retaining attributes are precisely what make it a vital component in Ilumae's The Quartet multi-peptide moisturiser, effectively enhancing your skin's glow and vibrancy.
HA works by capturing and retaining water in the skin, boosting hydration, softness, and radiance. It's important to note that as we age, there's a natural decline in HA within our bodies. This reduction can result in diminished water retention, ultimately playing a role in the noticeable signs of ageing skin.
This is precisely where HA excels: it acts as a master at attracting water, restoring the skin's inherent moisture balance, regardless of external factors.
HA rejuvenates and luxuriously hydrates skin, plumping and smoothing fine lines for a youthful glow. A comprehensive study on serum-form HA in women aged 30 to 65 showed substantial, lasting hydration enhancement. Participants noted improved texture, smoothness, plumpness, and overall complexion, with reduced fine lines and wrinkles (3).
HA is suitable for all skin types and gentle enough for daily use. It's a perfect choice for maintaining plump, healthy, glowing skin. Especially beneficial for dry or mature skin, as it hydrates, replenishes, and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. Even those with oily or combination skin can benefit, as HA balances the protective barrier, promoting resilience and radiance.
