This is the holy grail of skin care.
 
This hyaluronic acic serum is a game changer, because it's not "just" hyaluronic acid (which is amazing by itself). I've including several other unicorn ingredients which will have you doing a double-take each time you pass by a mirror!
 
Let's go over some science, shall we?
 
Hyaluronic acid (Sodium Hyaluronate) is a naturally occurring substance formed in the human body. It is a glycosaminoglycan which is primarily found in connective, neural, and epithelial tissue (outer surface of the skin) where it acts as a cushioning and lubrication agent for our joints, nerves, hair, skin and eyes. HA has an especially important role in epithelial tissue because it promotes the growth of keratinocytes and retinoic acid (vitamin A metabolite), and it helps collagen synthesis. It is stored in large amounts between the spaces of skin cells where it provides moisture and improves the elasticity and plumpness of the skin. 
 
As we age our bodies start to produce less and less hyaluronic acid, which decreases moisture in our skin significantly. Applying hyaluronic acid topically is beneficial because it penetrates through the dead layer of the skin (stratum corner) and diffuses deeper into the skin. HA is unique in that it has the ability to hold in 1000 ml of water per gram of hyaluronic acid, giving it the capability to hold a lot of moisture in the skin.  Using hyaluronic acid topically can increase the moisture, elasticity, firmness, and plumpness of the skin. Helping to decrease fine lines and wrinkles, providing healthy and youthful looking skin. HA is good for all skin types including oily and combination skin. 
 
Argireline (Acetyl Hexapeptide-8) is a fragment of SNAP-25 (a substrate of botulinum toxin) similar to Botox & may boost collagen production. It is a wonderful topical substitute for Botox injections. Working in a similar way to Botox, Argireline is absorbed through the skin, where its chemical composition inhibits the SNARE complex, causing facial muscles to contract with less force. This decreases the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles that are gradually caused by facial expressions over time.
 
Matrixyl 3000 (Palmitoyl Oligopeptide & Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7) is made up of peptides that promote collagen synthesis, nearly doubling the amount of collagen found in the skin. Collagen is the structural support located beneath the skin, making it firm.
 
Retinol is a form of vitamin A and increases skin cell production (proliferation). Retinol also exfoliates your skin and increases collagen production, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving your skin a fresher, plump appearance. Retinols may also improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation when used consitently, and it can unclog pores - helping rid the skin of blackheads. 
 
dl Panthenol (Pro Vitamin B5) is a racemic mixture of d-panthenol and l-panthenol used to improve the look and feel of skin. Once absorbed into the skin, dl Panthenol converts to Vitamin B5, which helps moisturize and soften skin as well as rejuvenate irritated/damaged skin.  Just like Hyaluronic Acid, Provitamin B5 is a highly regarded humectant in skincare formulations due to its ability to attract and retain moisture.
 
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) & Glucosamine are designed to improve the appearance of dark spots, blemishes, enlarged pores, fine lines, uneven skin tone, and aged or photodamaged skin.  They moisturize and soothe skin while also strengthening the skin’s supportive layers.
 
N Acetyl Glucosamine (NAG) is naturally occurring in the body where it stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid. In skincare, it serves several key roles: as a moisturizer, antioxidant, to improve the overall condition of the skin, and reduce the visual effects of aging. The combination of N Acetyl Glucosamine and Vitamin B3 can provide heightened effects of balancing skin tone by reducing visible skin discolorations. 
 
Phenoxyethanol is one of the best antimicrobial preservatives available. It is paraben and formaldehyde free and contains no formaldehyde donors. It is made up of phenoxyethanol.
 
Caprylyl Glycol serves a dual purpose as a preservative against bacteria as well as a skin conditioning agent.
 
I hope you enjoy this serum. It has done wonders for my own skin!
