Why Do You Need Hyaluronic Acid In Your Skincare Routine?

DATE:

CATEGORY:

Our skin becomes dull and dry due to various factors like aging, environmental aggressors, etc. and keeping it healthy in the longer term requires a bit of care and a proper skincare routine, of course. The secret to healthy skin is similar to that of a healthy body – Nutrients! Vitamins, minerals and other good ingredients contribute to keeping your skin soft, healthy and nourished. One such ingredient I swear by is hyaluronic acid! Hyaluronic acid is a naturally generated compound and is extremely necessary to keep your skin hydrated. It is a superhero skincare product that works as a moisture magnet and helps in keeping your skin healthy and plump! I make sure to look for it on the ingredient label of every product I use as it is one of my favorite ingredients. I started noticing the positive effects of it very quickly and since then it has been an integral part of my skincare routine! Here are a few products I love and yes, they all are enriched with the goodness of hyaluronic acid!

MASKS

Cleansers, toners, moisturizers, serums, etc. are some things that form the base of a good, healthy skincare routine but there’s one more thing you shouldn’t miss on when it comes to skincare – Face Masks! Yes, using a face mask, once in a while (as per your skin needs) can greatly benefit your skin. There’s an ingredient for every skin type and a skin type for every ingredient and hyaluronic acid is one of the best ingredients you can look for while buying a mask as it does not leave your skin dry. Listed below are my personal favorites!

Model Off Duty Beauty True Miracle Brightening Reset Mask

One of my favorites, this truly miraculous mask is packed with antioxidants and vitamins which prevent skin damage from free radicals and restore skin’s natural elasticity and glow from the inside out. It is loaded with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, green tea, rooibos and everything that’s good for your skin.

Youth To The People Superberry Hydrate + Glow Dream Mask

This overnight masks deeply hydrates, plumps, and brightens your skin with powerful super berries and other good ingredients like vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, etc. I’ve been using this mask for a quite few months and I’m absolutely in love with it!

SERUMS

Loaded with antioxidants, serums are the real healers when it comes to skincare. They are designed to address specific issues and you can include it in your skincare regimen at an early age. Unlike sunscreens and creams, serums are light and can be absorbed by the skin while helping it to rejuvenate. Your skin needs hydration and potent nutrients to deal with environmental aggressors and pollutants which is why ‘serums’ are becoming popular these days. Check out my favorite serums right here!

OSEA Hyaluronic Sea Serum

A super-hydrating formula that delivers all the hydration my skin needs and locks it within. It starts working from the first application and keeps the skin youthful, healthy and nourished. All in all, it fights aging and rejuvenates your skin from within.

EYE CREAMS

Eye skin is prone to aging hence it needs to be protected from an earlier age. A cream that contains a mix of anti-aging and hydrating ingredients would be just perfect to keep this delicate skin healthy in the longer term. Try using a cream that contains a mix of retinol, hyaluronic acid, and other good ingredients to keep this under-eye skin healthy, firm and bright. Listed below are my all-time superstars!

Model Off Duty Beauty Supercharged Eye Brightening Cream

This superstar formula rejuvenates and brightens the delicate under-eye skin. It helps in healing skin fatigue and protects the delicate eye area from dullness and damage. It also boosts collagen to help treat dark circles and eye puffiness. Packed with antioxidants from Rooibos tea extract that helps fight free radicals in the skin and repairs damage brought on by the elements.

First Aid Beauty FAB Skin Lab Retinol Eye Cream with Triple Hyaluronic Acid

An enriching formula that helps combat the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and other signs of aging. It is loaded with good ingredients to nourish this delicate skin and lock the moisture within so that it looks good and feels better.

MOISTURIZER

If you wanna keep your skin healthy and glowing, start with the basics! Creams are basically the building blocks of a healthy skincare routine. A hydrating cream that nourishes your skin with the good ingredients without making it greasy is all that your skin needs. Look for a cream that’s loaded with antioxidants and other good ingredients to serve the purpose! Check out my favorites right here!

Caudalie Resveratrol Lift Face Lifting Soft Cream

A nourishing formula that hydrates your skin while keeping it healthy from the inside. I love the texture of this cream as it is absorbed by the skin in a fraction of seconds and does not make it look dull.

Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Cream

A miraculous formula consisting of 30% hyaluronic acid that transforms vapor into the water and keeps your skin hydrated up to 72 hours. My skin felt noticeably smoother and firmer just after I started using this cream. Moreover, it never makes your skin dull so you can consider using it if you’re going for a ‘bare face’ look!

Have you added hyaluronic acid in your skincare regimen yet?
