Humectant, Skin Conditioning

Sodium Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid's salt form. It is commonly derived from the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid.

Like hyaluronic acid, it is great at holding water and acts as a humectant. This makes it a great skin hydrating ingredient.

Sodium Hyaluronate is naturally occurring in our bodies and is mostly found in eye fluid and joints.

🤍 time used: a month
I had very high hopes about this serum since it had minimalistic ingredients that looked promising as an acne prone skin, but upon using it day and night for a month i didn’t see any difference at all.
It barely hydrates the skin even when used on damp skin, and when i use it on dry skin it becomes sticky.
Also it’s expensive for the small ml they give.
Love avene but this Show more
