This formula contains 5 types of hyaluronic acid, provitamin B5, and ceramides.
Ceramides:
To retain moisture and strengthen the skin barrier, ensuring long-lasting hydration. Ceramides (a natural lipid found in the skin) improve the barrier's ability to protect and hydrate, ensuring moisture is retained for longer-lasting results.
5 types of hyaluronic acid:
Five types of hyaluronic acid provide hydration to multiple layers of the skin. These include low, medium, and high molecular weight molecules, a hyaluronic acid crosspolymer, and hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid. These ingredients work together to help the skin retain moisture, plump dry and dehydrated areas, and improve skin elasticity.
Provitamin B5 (panthenol):
promotes the formation of essential components of the skin barrier, such as ceramides and fatty acids, further improving the skin's moisture retention and overall healthy appearance.
This next-generation hyaluronic serum has a lightweight serum texture that dries to a non-sticky finish.
