Hyaluronic Acid.
Hyaluronic acid is a type of sugar molecule that is naturally present in the human body.
It is found in high concentrations in the skin, where it helps to keep the tissue hydrated and plump.
In skincare products, hyaluronic acid is often used as a humectant, meaning it helps to keep the skin hydrated by drawing water from the environment and into the skin cells.
This can help to plump up the appearance of the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
