💧 The Key to True Skin Hydration 💧
Healthy, glowing skin starts with a strong barrier — and that barrier is built by ceramides and lipids your skin naturally makes. But when that process is disrupted (think acne, rosacea, eczema), your skin loses its ability to hold moisture, leading to irritation, flaking, and sensitivity.
Here’s the truth 👉 even acne-prone skin needs hydration.
When the barrier is compromised, your skin actually produces more oil to compensate — which can worsen congestion and inflammation.
That’s where hyaluronic acid comes in.
It draws water into the skin like a magnet. But not all forms are equal — smaller molecular (low-Dalton) hyaluronic acids pe*****te deeper, while larger molecules hydrate the surface. Hyaluronate, the salt form, is even better — it’s more stable, more bioavailable, and holds up to 1000x its weight in water 💦
✨ Tip: Layer a hydrating serum with hyaluronate, then seal it in with a ceramide-rich moisturiser to rebuild your barrier and restore that dewy, calm glow.
