Understanding Hyaluronic Acid Serum
Hyaluronic acid is a skincare ingredient gaining popularity for its ability to act as a humectant — a fancy term for a chemical that holds onto moisture. According to experts from Harvard Health, this substance holds more than 1000 times its weight in water.1 Our bodies are full of hyaluronic acid, from our eyes to the lining of our joints. However, as we age, we lose this acid, along with the elastic proteins that keep skin firm and plump. This leads to moisture loss and wrinkles over time.1
Dermatologists and skincare chemists developed hyaluronic acid serums to replace what’s lost in the skin. These serums help your skin retain its moisture and minimize the appearance of stubborn wrinkles and fine lines.2
Understanding Collagen Serum and Hyaluronic Acid
Around one-third of your body’s protein is made up of collagen.3 This supportive, structural peptide gives your skin, connective tissues, muscles, and bones their strength. In the deeper layers of the skin, collagen also helps new cells form and grow. Serums made with collagen contain hydrolyzed peptides — these smaller fragments are easily absorbed by your skin. Keeping a healthy collagen matrix helps minimize fine lines and wrinkles.3,4
When used together, collagen serum and hyaluronic acid may help maintain normal skin moisture levels while promoting a healthy complexion.
Benefits of Using Collagen Cream and Retinol Together
Enhance your skin’s natural barrier by using collagen serum and hyaluronic acid together. Collagen works by providing a firm, smooth foundation for your skin. Encourage moisture and hydration by adding a hyaluronic acid serum along with your collagen serum. Together, the synergy between these two substances can promote healthy, smooth, and plump skin.
To use them together, start by gently cleansing your face. Pat it dry with a clean towel, but leave some moisture behind. Combine a few drops of collagen and hyaluronic acid serums together, then pat them into your skin. Immediately apply your favorite moisturizer to help lock in moisture and promote absorption. You can also consult your dermatologist on how to best combine these serums for your needs.
