The latest craze and discovery of the many benefits of hyaluronic acid (HA) has lead to the production of numerous kinds of hyaluronic acid moisturizer products and creams. But do any of them actually work?
There's no question that more HA in your skin mean a much more supple, smoother, and more more youthful appearance. It's vital function in tissue repair, healing, cell proliferation, and elasticity of the skin makes it one of the most important substances in your skin.
What's even more amazing is it's ability to hold more than 1,000 times it's weight in water! This is where the true benefit of HA comes into play when it comes to preserving the youthfulness and health of your skin. It also prevents the evaporation of water from the skin.
But here's where most hyaluronic acid moisturizer and hyaluronic acid moisturizing cream products go wrong....
Because HA is such a sticky and thick substance and it's molecules are rather large, very little of it (or none whatsoever) can be absorbed into your skin. So no matter how much HA is in a hyaluronic acid moisturizer, only the same amount (or none at all) can actually penetrate through your pores. The rest is just left on your skin and washed off when you bathe or shower. What a waste!
But fortunately for us, there is a way around this problem. We can learn from the Japanese!
Have you by any chance even seen a Japanese man or women that's in their 70s or 80s? Their skin is immaculate! There's no signs of wrinkles, fine lines, or sagging skin, and they are more flexible and energetic that most people are when they're 40!
You know why? Because along with living a very healthy lifestyle, they also use anti-aging skin care products containing a unique Japanese kelp extract called Phytessence Wakame.
What's so special about Phytessence Wakame, especially in an hyaluronic acid moisturizing cream, is that it stops the activity of hyaluronidase, a bodily enzyme that constantly breaks down HA. Basically, the more UV radiation and free radical creation that occurs in the skin, the more active hyaluronidase gets.
So the valuable lesson you can learn from the Japanese is instead of using hyaluronic acid moisturizer products with actually HA in it, you should use topical anti-aging skin care products that contain ingredients like Phytessence Wakame, which naturally stops the degradation of your own UNIQUE HA inside your skin.
