Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in the skin and plays an important role in maintaining moisture. This essential molecule however has a short lifecycle in skin, with 30%-50% degrading every 24 hours. With age, the skin’s ability to produce hyaluronic acid decreases. Production starts to decline in the 20s and this decline accelerates in the 40s. Decreased production rapid degradation of hyaluronic acid contribute to signs of aging, including decreased firmness, less facial plumpness, and rough texture.

While hyaluronic acid is a powerful hydrator, the size of the hyaluronic acid molecules are too large for optimal skin absorption. H.A. Intensifier uniquely combines surface-hydrating hyaluronic acid with 10% proxylane™ and an optimal concentration of licorice and purple rice extracts to support skin’s hyaluronic acid levels.

KEY INGRIDIENTS:

• 10% Proxylane™
  Supports skin’s hyaluronic acid levels to help improve the appearance of skin firmness.
• 2.0% Licorice Root Extract (dipotassium glycyrrhizate) + 0.2% Purple Rice Extract
  These potent ingredients work together to help preserve hyaluronic acid content in skin.
• 1.3% Hyaluronic Acid
  This powerful natural humectant provides long lasting hydration to improve the look of skin texture.
