Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate
Hydrating
These ingredients help hydrate the skin by either drawing in moisture or preventing it from escaping. They’re often used to keep skin feeling soft, smooth, and well-balanced.
Reduces Irritation
These ingredients are often used to help reduce irritation and support the skin barrier. They can be especially helpful for soothing sensitive or reactive skin, but how well they work can vary from person to person.
Good for Scar Healing
These ingredients are commonly used to support the skin’s natural healing process and improve the appearance of scars over time. While results can vary, they may help with texture, discoloration, and overall skin recovery.
Explained
This ingredient is created by putting sodium hyaluronate through hydrolysis.
You might know this as 'mini' or 'ultra low-molecular weight' hyaluronic acid. The small molecule size means it is able to travel deeper in the skin.
According to studies, low molecular-weight hyaluronic acid can:
- moisturize at a deeper level
- repair UV-damaged cells
- provide antioxidant protection
- promote wound healing
One study from 2011 found ultra-low weight HA to show pro-inflammatory properties. Another study from 2022 found it to downregulate UV-B induced inflammation.
Hydrolysis is a process of changing a molecule using water or enzymes.
This ingredient is water-soluble.
