Botanical Hyaluronic Acid
Sodium Hyaluronate
is the naturally derived salt of Hyaluronic Acid with a smaller weight that allows it to penetrate the skin easily. Hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the fluid that bathes joints, in the vitreous humor of the eye and in the skin. Botanical hyaluronic acid is derived from a plant called Cassia Angustifolia (Senna alexandria). Sodium Hyaluronate is a powerful anti aging ingredient in skin care. It is an irreplaceable hydrating ingredient because of its ability to attract and retain moisture. It protects the skin; it helps to restore youthful fullness by plumping skin and giving it a smoother appearance. When we are young our skin is packed with Sodium Hyaluronate causing us to look young and youthful. Hyaluronic Acid & Collagen are vital to maintaining the skin’s layers & structure. It is the collagen that gives the skin its firmness, but it is the Hyaluronic Acid that nourishes & hydrates the collagen.
Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans
is a mixture of plant-derived polysaccharides. It consists essentially of Hyaluronic Acid, lipids and sugars. It has ability to bind with water efficiently and increase depth hydration, improving the elasticity and firmness of the skin. It is a great skin replenishing and softening anti aging ingredient.
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) - A family of carbohydrates that help with the maintenance and support of collagen and elastin, skin-replenishing, skin-restoring ingredients. There are various glycosaminoglycans in the dermis. The most common ones are: hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, keratin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, heparin sulfate, and heparin. They are water-binding substances.
Glycosaminoglycans' primary role is to maintain and support collagen, elastin and turgidity (bounce) in the cellular spaces and keep protein fibers in balance and proportion. It also promotes the ability of the collagen and elastin fibers to retain moisture. They are essential to the epidermal & dermal cells metabolism and keeping the collagen and elastin of the skin in good condition. GAGs are important in the reaction of copper peptides to help repair wrinkles and scarring.
