FAQs
How does hyaluronic acid benefit the skin?
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring molecule in the skin and connective tissues. As we age, the amount of natural HA declines. Environmental factors such as pollution accelerates this decline. In topical products, HA functions as a humectant by binding to water and increasing the water content in the skin. This plumps the skin and gives it a dewy appearance. HA is great for all skin types, while individuals with dry or mature skin will benefit the most. It is non-irritating and does not trigger acne, eczema, or allergic reactions.
Are fruit enzymes good for skin?
An enzyme is a natural catalyst, meaning it speeds up the rate of reaction in natural processes. In skincare, fruit enzymes catalyze exfoliation by digesting keratin proteins in the outermost layer of the skin. They offer a safe and gentle form of exfoliation by sloughing off dead skin cells without contributing to micro tears that are common with most physical exfoliants. They eliminate dull skin and help to reveal soft, glowing skin underneath.
