What hyaluronic acid does

Hyaluronic acid is the ingredient your skin uses to hold water. It can bind many times its own weight in moisture, which is what leaves skin plump, smooth and dewy rather than tight and dry. It suits every skin type, including oily and breakout-prone skin that still needs hydration without heaviness.

How to choose

For maximum hydration that lasts, our hero is the 2% Hyaluronic Acid Serum with polyglutamic acid: the HA pulls moisture deep into the skin and the polyglutamic acid seals it at the surface so it holds through a dry South African day. For hydration below the neck, the 2% Hyaluronic Acid + Ceramide Body Yoghurt does the same job for your body, with ceramides to support the skin barrier.

Build your routine

Hyaluronic acid layers beautifully with almost any active. Apply it on damp skin, then follow with a targeted serum for your main concern. For brightness and antioxidant support, add 10% Vitamin C Toner. For oil control and blemishes, reach for 6% Niacinamide Serum or the stronger 10% Niacinamide + 3% Peptides Serum. For fine lines and skin renewal, work in 0,3% Retinol Serum at night. For dark marks and uneven tone, try 2% Alpha Arbutin + Licorice Extract Serum, and for gentle exfoliation, 5% Glycolic Acid. Prefer softer, barrier-friendly hydration? The 1% Raspberry Extract Moisturiser seals everything in. New to actives and not sure where to start? The Oily & Sensitive Bundle pairs the essentials for you.

Frequently asked questions

Which hyaluronic acid serum is best for my skin?

For most people, the 2% Hyaluronic Acid Serum is the best starting point: it delivers lasting hydration, suits all skin types, and layers under any moisturiser. If you want the same hydration for your body, add the Hyaluronic Acid Body Yoghurt.

When should I apply hyaluronic acid?

Apply it to slightly damp skin, morning or night, before heavier creams and oils. Hyaluronic acid pulls moisture in, so following it with a moisturiser locks that hydration in place.
