Need some help with your skin? Try a Jessner!

Hyaluronic Acid – Is it really as good as everyone says?

Hyaluronic acid is actually a sugar that binds to and absorbs water, it gives a fullness and plumpness to the skin and that is what we are constantly trying to replicate. Hyaluronic acid is actually a sugar that attracts water molecules to provide a plump, spongy effect to the skin. As water is absorbed by the acid, volume is created, acting in the same manner as how a sponge soaks up water and becomes full to even out every little crevice.
