Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a star ingredient in the cosmetic industry, renowned for its ability to provide deep hydration and enhance the skin's youthful appearance. For cosmetic formulators, understanding how to best utilize HA is key to creating effective and sought-after products. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers premium hyaluronic acid raw materials to help you achieve outstanding results.

The Versatility of Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring polysaccharide that excels at binding water, making it an indispensable humectant in skincare. Its presence in cosmetic formulations contributes significantly to skin hydration, elasticity, and the reduction of visible aging signs. The effectiveness of HA can be tailored by selecting specific molecular weights.

Tailoring Your Formulations with HA:
  • Low Molecular Weight (LMW) HA: Ideal for targeting deeper epidermal hydration. It penetrates the stratum corneum effectively, providing a long-lasting moisturizing effect and helping to smooth fine lines and wrinkles. This is crucial for anti-aging benefits.
  • High Molecular Weight (HMW) HA: Creates a protective, moisturizing film on the skin's surface. This barrier prevents moisture loss and contributes to a plump, smooth skin texture. It's excellent for overall surface hydration and skin barrier support.

Formulation Best Practices:
  • Ingredient Incorporation: Hyaluronic acid powder should be hydrated in water. To prevent clumping, it can be pre-mixed with glycerin or other humectants before adding to the water phase. Alternatively, sprinkle slowly into water with continuous stirring.
  • pH and Temperature: Avoid exposing HA to high temperatures or extreme pH levels, as this can degrade the molecule and reduce its efficacy. It's best added during the cool-down phase of emulsion making.
  • Concentration: Typical usage rates range from 0.1% to 2%, depending on the desired viscosity and hydration level. For instance, higher concentrations (around 1-2%) are used to create gels.
