A biomimetic ingredient found naturally in the skin, capable of deeply moisturising and plumping the skin.
Hyaluronic acid is a molecule found naturally in the body. It has two exceptional powers: hydrating & plumping.
Depending on its molecular weight, hyaluronic acid attracts the water molecules found in the skin. It is able to retain 1,000 times its weight in water, which gives it powerful hydrating properties. Your skin is infused with water, making it intensely moisturised and feel more comfortable. Depending on its molecular weight, hyaluronic acid also has anti-ageing properties. The dermis, located under the epidermis, is naturally composed of hyaluronic acid. The more the skin has, the more vibrant and plumper-looking it is. Unfortunately, with age, production of this molecule decreases. As an ingredient, Hyaluronic Acid combined with water is able to fill spaces between cells, which is why it is known for its anti-ageing properties.
Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid
The key ingredient for skin that is naturally and intensely hydrated
Our body is made up of 60% water. It circulates in the blood before evaporating through the epidermis. It is this water that gives our skin its suppleness. When our skin is dehydrated, it becomes dry, wrinkled and uncomfortable. This is where hyaluronic acid comes in. This pure and natural molecule ensures water retention in our bodies, to moisturise it daily, restore suppleness to our skin and strengthen its barrier. In our Avène Thermal Spring Water products, we use natural hyaluronic acid, which is extremely pure and has a high molecular weight. It forms a protective film on the surface of the epidermis, like a natural barrier that captures water and prevents it from evaporating through the epidermis. This form of hyaluronic acid naturally protects the skin from external aggressors while providing long-lasting hydration.
By regularly usingskincare and creams with hyaluronic acid, your skin will be lastingly hydrated and naturally regain its suppleness and softness.
Our skin is smart and looks after itself. To take care of all skin types, we have proven that imitating its components delivers maximised benefits: the hydrating power of a mimetic formula goes beyond that of a traditional formula.
