Most humectant ingredients share a general approach. Sodium Hyaluronate is more targeted than most. Salt of hyaluronic acid; smaller molecule — better penetration than HA.
The scientific name is Sodium Hyaluronate. Salt of hyaluronic acid; smaller molecule — better penetration than HA. This mechanism is consistent across properly formulated products, which means the real variable is concentration and delivery system.
Typical working concentration is 0.01–2%. Best suited to all skin types skin. Primary applications: deep hydration (smaller molecule than ha).
Works well with: All moisturisers.
In ingredients lists = hyaluronic acid; just a more stable, penetrative form.
