Shop Smart: Hyaluronic Acid

High Tech use of Hyaluronic Acid in PHYRIS Hyaluron Sensation Range

Hyaluronic Acid is often commonly known as a veritable water magnet. Not only can it quickly fill up gaps between collagen fibers to plump skin from within, it is also capable of binding moisture. The result? Smooth, supple skin that’s filled with healthy freshness. (No wonder it’s even used as a botox replacement in cosmetic filler procedures!)

Nowadays, lots of skincare boast of Hyaluronic Acid as an active ingredient. But product prices vary greatly, and so do results. Here’s what to look out for when choosing products with Hyaluronic Acid.

1. How deep is the penetration rate? Most products contain hyaluronic acid which can hydrate the epidermis (skin surface) for a temporary moisture boost, but is not as effective to improve skin’s moisture levels in the long run.

2. How long does the Hyaluronic Acid stay within skin? Look for timed release formulas that can continuously replenish skin’s moisture levels for best effect.

3. What other active ingredients are there in the product? Sometimes you can depend on one ingredient to do all the work. If there are supporting ingredients that help in the moisture binding process, results will be better and faster! Look out for winners like panthenol and squalene as part of the ingredients deployed.

4. What is the concentration of hyaluronic acid deployed in the product? It might boast the ingredient in large letters on the packaging, but check out the list of ingredients before you commit to your purchase. Ingredients are listed in order of quantity, from highest to lowest. So make sure the active ingredients aren’t at the bottom end of the list!

If the above has gotten you confused, why not check out the new Phyris Hyaluron Sensation Range? The products in this range use the high-tech formulations of Hyaluronic acid, paired with high-grade complementary ingredients to provide the best in moisture boost aid for all skin types.
