Why is everyone talking about hyaluronic acid and ceramides?


Aqua Plus Range

Better together. That is how hyaluronic acid and ceramides are described by skincare junkies. Ask any skincare expert, and they are all praises to these two ingredients when it comes to making your skin healthier! These superstar ingredients are proven to help provide an immediate plump and glow to one’s skin! And the good thing about it, they are both naturally occurring on the skin!

Hyaluronic acid does a killer job in hydrating your skin. In fact, it can hold up to 1000x its weight in water to provide the skin with intense hydration. Don’t get intimidated by the word “acid” in its name; this ingredient is totally safe, and is present in the body naturally. However, due to aging and exposure to pollutants, and stress, the body’s store of hyaluronic acid decreases. Low hyaluronic acid content leads to dull-looking skin, wrinkles, fine lines, skin dehydration, and dry patches. Hyaluronic Acid, when applied topically, attracts water into the skin and infuses the skin cells with water. It’s like giving the skin getting a big drink of water! With a properly hydrated skin, skin’s ability to absorb moisture and nutrients are enhanced. Thus, hydration unveils a healthier, plumper, supple, and glowing version of the skin!

Meanwhile, ceramides comprise 50 percent of the epidermis. Thus, playing a vital role in the appearance of the skin. Ceramides act as the skin’s natural moisturizer. It creates a protective layer to seal in moisture, fight skin aging, and block environmental damage.

These two combined is the holy grail of skincare! Hyaluronic Acid works in giving the skin a surge of hydration, while ceramides works wonder in improving the skin’s barrier. So, what happens when the skin is properly hydrated and skin barrier is strong? It all shows in the outside—plump, supple, radiant, lesser visible wrinkles/fine lines, lesser sebum production, lesser chance of breakout, and refreshingly glowing skin!
