Why is everyone talking about hyaluronic acid?

"Hyaluronic acid is a sugar molecule that occurs naturally in the skin, [and] it helps to bind water to collagen, trapping it in the skin, so that skin can appear plumper, dewier, and more hydrated," explains board-certified dermatologist Tsippora Shainhouse, M.D.
Â
As we age, we lose collagen and hyaluronic acid, causing our skin to become easily dehydrated. When we lose our collagen and hyaluronic acid, skin becomes saggy, wrinkley, less plump, less healthy- this is why it is so important to incorporate hyaluronic acid into your daily routine, as a supplement, or a topical serum. Hyaluronic acid is gentle enough for all skin types, as it is nonirritating and does not trigger acne or rosacea.
