Summer is drawing to a close and with it comes harsh winds and central heating systems to starve our skin of hydration, moisture and radiance. Thankfully Hyaluronic Acid is here to help!

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is an autumn-winter skincare essential as it delivers multiple benefits to the skin. Naturally found in our bodies, Hyaluronic Acid is able to provide high levels of hydration to the skin and hold 1000 times its weight in water – whether on the skin, in the eyes or within soft tissue.

It is one of the most powerful natural moisturising ingredients known to science and one of the best skincare ingredients to use in the fight against premature ageing. HA improves elasticity, decreases wrinkles, helps to repair environmental damage and helps to reduce skin irritation.  Hyaluronic Acid is such a hero skincare ingredient that we’ve rounded up our favourites, creating a holy trinity of skin saviours to get us through the season…
