**2% Sodium Hyaluronate

• What is Sodium Hyaluronate?
Sodium Hyaluronate is an all-natural water soluble form of Hyaluronic acid.

• Is Sodium Hyaluronate The Same Thing As Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic Acid: occurs naturally in the human body and works to support the body’s collagen production and to help maintain elasticity. This natural molecule is specifically found in the hair, skin, eyes, nerves, and in the lubricating liquid substance between the joints and tissues.
Sodium Hyaluronate, an all-natural water-soluble form of Hyaluronic Acid, works in a similar way, offering better skin penetration and stability. The added gain when using Sodium Hyaluronate is that it penetrates the skin more easily than Hyaluronic Acid.

 The difference is due to two main factors: stability and ability to penetrate.
 Sodium hyaluronate (salt form) is a more stable version of hyaluronic acid.
 Additionally, sodium hyaluronate has a lower molecular size.
 What this means is while hyaluronic acid hydrates the surface of the skin, sodium hyaluronate is able to absorb more effectively and penetrate deeper.
 “Sodium hyaluronate might penetrate the skin more readily, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that one is better than the other in terms of effect,”

• WHAT DOES SODIUM HYALURONATE DO FOR THE SKIN?
High molecular weight Hyaluronic Acid hydrates only the top layer of skin.
Low molecular weight and water-soluble form (Sodium hyaluronate) hydrates even the deeper layers of skin, helping to plump out the look of fine lines for a smoother appearance. It is used as an alternative to hyaluronic acid, which doesn’t easily penetrate the skin when applied topically.
Cosmetics enriched with Sodium Hyaluronate help to effectively restore the skin’s moisture with natural hydration, promoting a more youthful complexion.
Its water-holding ability – specifically its natural capacity for holding water that is 1000 times its weight – makes it an exceptional hydrating agent. It also promotes better blood circulation, nutrient absorption and wound healing and thus a popular ingredient in the cosmetic industry; this constituent is widely used in rejuvenating skincare products intended to address the appearance of wrinkles.
• What are the benefits of Sodium hyaluronate?
1. Repairs a compromised moisture barrier: Easily and deeply penetrate the skin to help it retain moisture for increased firmness and suppleness, resulting in a revitalized appearance.
2. Combats skin dryness: As a humectant, it pulls in water from the air and helps to retain moisture to keep your skin hydrated and flake-free.
3. Relieve itching due to dehydrated and irritated skin. Smooth the appearance of wrinkles and generally improve the texture of skin.
4. Improves acne-prone skin: Gentle enough for use on most skin types, including acne-prone types. Due to its wound healing properties, it will help prevent scarring.
5. Improves signs of aging: Replace the skin’s natural Hyaluronic Acid content, which diminishes with age, exposure to UV radiation, and various other environmental factors that lead to gradual moisture loss.
6. Plumps: Promote the look of replenished facial volume by causing the skin to appear swollen/plumper, which helps reduce the look of fine lines.
7. Leaves a non-greasy glow: It has a lightweight feel and imparts a dewy finish without leaving a thick, greasy residue.
8. Helps eczema: since the ingredient is so gentle, it’s safe to use on sensitive skin and can be beneficial for severely dry skin types.
9. Restores skin post-procedure: use of sodium hyaluronate to hydrate after in-office procedures, such as lasers or micro-needling, which make the skin vulnerable.
10. Sodium Hyaluronate helps to increase a formulation’s stability and to reduce the probability of oxidization.
11. It promotes better blood circulation and nutrient absorption. Use it in conjunction with a nutrient rich moisturizer or serum to maximize the benefits of the products’ other ingredients. Briefly, it enhances the absorption and benefits of other nourishing ingredients in formulations.
