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.

COSRX Pure Fit Cica Serum 21 ingredients
Really love this serum. It's super calming and hydrating for my dry-sensitive skin. I recently had a reaction to a dermaplaning and this serum along with the pads were the only thing that truly calmed my skin. Highly recommended
Literally does nothing for soothing, not too hydrating either. Save your money
