Sodium hyaluronate is the sodium salt of Hyaluronic Acid, is naturally found in your skin as well as the connective tissue in your body. It presents itself in the body wherever moisture is stored or acts as a lubricator between layers of tissue to eliminate friction. Since birth, it presents in very ample amounts, but as we age, it declines faster due to extrinsic aging factors. It is very effective for its moisturizing and skin-plumping qualities. It attracts water and binds moisture to the skin, helping to keep our skin hydrated and moisturized. Hyaluronic Acid is so good for your skin that it retains your skin’s hydration and even fine lines. Lack of moisture is one of the main culprits of aging skin, so using Hyaluronic Acid helps repair your skin’s moisturizer barrier. Just a single gram of Hyaluronic Acid can hold up to six liters of water. Because of this magical ability, it is a must-have when it comes to repairing your skin’s moisture barrier and great for anti-aging.
