What is it?
Hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate is a derivative of sodium hyaluronate, a salt form of hyaluronic acid. This ingredient is known for its powerful hydrating properties and is commonly used in skincare products for moisture and skin texture. The hydrolyzed form has a lower molecular weight, allowing it to penetrate the skin more deeply compared to regular sodium hyaluronate or hyaluronic acid.
Where does it come from?
Sodium hyaluronate is derived from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in the human body, particularly in the skin, connective tissues, and joints. In skincare, sodium hyaluronate is typically produced through fermentation. The hydrolyzed form of sodium hyaluronate is created by breaking down the larger molecules of sodium hyaluronate into smaller fragments, making it ideal for topical application by allowing deeper penetration into the skin.Sodium hyaluronate is derived from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in the human body, particularly in the skin, connective tissues, and joints.
