What is hyaluronic acid ?

Hyaluronic acid is a body own, sugar-like substance which is a popular cosmetic ingredient due to its ability to firmly retain water. It  also participates in the nutrient supply to skin, can neutralize free radicals and have a positive impact on skin. However, skin loses its natural hyaluronan content over time, but it can be replenished by using cosmetic products containing hyaluronic aicd. 

Hyaluronic acid is produced biotechnologically and isn´t an animal product. 

Effect

RAU Cosmetics products contain hyaluronic acid in its short-chained as well as in its long-chained form.

Long-chained hyaluronic acid can effectively retain moisture in the upper skin layer, which can lead to an immediate plumping effect. The skin-firming and smoothening result is visible within a very short time after usage.
Whereas short-chained hyaluronic acid penetrates the upper skin layer and is able to have a long-term effect on the skin´s own moisture balance.  Regular usage can lead to a moisture-supporting longterm effect, improved moisture supply and, thus, to fimer and more youthful skin.

Hyaluronic acid is admitted for natural cosmetics.
