What Exactly Does Hyaluronic Acid Do? (And Why Your Skin Loves It in Autumn)

You’ve seen it everywhere – in serums, creams, even makeup. But what is hyaluronic acid really... and why is it so good for your skin?

The Basics: What It Is and What It Does

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural substance your body already makes. Its superpower? Holding up to 1,000 times its weight in water.

When applied topically, it acts like a magnet for moisture – pulling hydration into the skin and locking it in.

Autumn = Peak Time for Hyaluronic Acid

As we transition into cooler weather and central heating, skin starts to dry out. Hyaluronic Acid helps:

  • Plump fine lines

  • Boost glow

  • Rehydrate dry, flaky patches

  • Support a stronger skin barrier
