💧 Hyaluronic Acid: Myths & Facts
Myth 1: Hyaluronic Acid is an exfoliant.
Fact: Despite the name, it’s not an acid like AHAs or BHAs. Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a hydrator—it attracts water to the skin and helps keep it plump and moisturized.
Myth 2: HA only works for dry skin.
Fact: HA is great for all skin types, even oily or acne-prone. Hydrated skin is balanced skin!
Myth 3: The more HA, the better.
Fact: Too much HA—especially in dry air—can pull moisture from your skin instead of the environment. Always follow with a moisturizer to lock it in.
Myth 4: All HA is the same.
Fact: HA comes in different molecular sizes. Smaller molecules go deeper, while larger ones hydrate the surface. Products with multiple types of HA offer the best results.
Myth 5: You don’t need to apply anything after HA.
Fact: HA pulls in water, but if there’s nothing to seal it, your skin can dry out. Follow with a cream or oil-based moisturizer for lasting hydration.
Tip: Apply your HA product to slightly damp skin, then seal it in with a good moisturizer for maximum glow! ✨
