EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HYALURONIC ACID

If you’re feeling out of the loop when it comes to hyaluronic acid, let us fix that really quick. The fact you’re most likely to hear tossed around about this popular ingredient is that it’s capable of holding up to 1,000 times its weight in water—and it’s true. Additionally, according to the American Academy of Dermatology, hyaluronic acid can help to soothe dry skin.

OUR BEST HYALURONIC ACID MOISTURIZERS

Moving on to what you really want to know…where you can find skin care products formulated with hyaluronic acid? Enter our best moisturizers with hyaluronic acid. The L’Oréal Paris Hydra Genius line offers three lightweight moisturizers formulated with hyaluronic acid and aloe vera water, each of which is designed for a different skin type. To use any of the following three moisturizers, start by cleansing your skin. (Need a facial cleanser recommendation? Read our article, How to Find the Right Clay Cleanser for Your Skin Type). Then, smooth your moisturizer of choice over your face and neck while your skin is still damp, to help lock in hydration.

L’Oréal Paris Hydra Genius Daily Liquid Care – Normal/Oily Skin: In normal and oily skin, external factors such as pollution, UV rays, and excessive cleansing can damage skin’s moisture barrier, causing loss of moisture and an increase in oil production. As a result, your complexion can start to look overly shiny. This water-based moisturizer helps reduce the appearance of excess shine and has a matte finish.

L’Oréal Paris Hydra Genius Daily Liquid Care – Normal/Dry Skin: Normal and dry skin faces external factors such as pollution and UV rays that can damage the skin’s moisture barrier, increasing loss of moisture and causing it to become drier. As a result, skin’s surface loses its glow, becoming dull-looking. This water-based moisturizer envelops skin with moisture, improving the look of radiance.

L’Oréal Paris Hydra Genius Daily Liquid Care – Extra Dry Skin: Your skin has a very fragile moisture barrier that can be easily damaged by external factors such as pollution and UV rays. Skin consequently loses its ability to retain moisture, becoming easily dehydrated, feeling tight and uncomfortable. This water-based moisturizer envelops skin with moisture, providing comfort.

These aren’t our only moisturizers formulated with hyaluronic acid. If you have mature skin, we also have an anti-aging moisturizer with hyaluronic acid to tell you about.

L’Oréal Paris RevitaLift Triple Power™ Intensive Anti-Aging Moisturizer: As skin ages, you may notice that wrinkles and rough texture are becoming more noticeable. This anti-aging moisturizer provides long-lasting hydration and immediately makes skin look more radiant. With continued use over time, the appearance of wrinkles is reduced, while skin’s overall appearance is improved. In the A.M. and P.M., smooth the moisturizer over your face, neck, and jawline until thoroughly absorbed. For best results, use this moisturizer in conjunction with other L’Oréal Paris RevitaLift products.

OUR BEST HYALURONIC ACID SERUM

As we mentioned just a bit ago, hyaluronic acid face creams aren’t the only way for you to work the popular ingredient into your skin care routine. In fact, if you want to take hydrating to a new level, you may want to consider using multiple skin products with hyaluronic acid. Our suggestion for the next addition to your routine? A hyaluronic acid serum! Apply the L’Oréal Paris RevitaLift Derm Intensives 1.5% Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum—a 1.5% pure hyaluronic acid serum—in-between your cleansing and moisturizing steps. The lightweight serum replenishes moisture for plumped, youthfully supple skin with a bounce.
