What to Know About Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid has become one of skincare’s most talked-about ingredients. When the trend began gaining traction, I had already stocked up on Hada Labo products, ready to add them to my routine. With formulas packed with hyaluronic acid, the range delivered exactly what it promised.

My skin felt plumper, nourished and hydrated. Fine lines softened. Texture improved. Elasticity returned. That is the power of moisture binding.

Skin naturally produces hyaluronic acid, but production decreases with age. Using products infused with it helps restore the look of fullness and hydration that many people lose over time.

Naturally Found in the Body

Allure magazine quotes Dr Engelman, who describes hyaluronic acid as a water-binding molecule that maintains hydration and elasticity. It occurs naturally, but collagen and HA levels decline as we age. “HA is a great way to bring back the appearance of plumper, more hydrated skin,” she notes. Even on the hottest summer days, hydration still matters.

The Different Types

Skincare information spreads fast, and not all of it is accurate. According to Hada Labo experts, there are multiple types of hyaluronic acid, each with a unique role in retaining moisture in the skin. These include Hyaluronic Acid (HA), Super HA, Nano HA, Absorbent HA, 3D HA, Penetrating HA and Fermented HA. Together, they help wrap the skin in long-lasting hydration.

Hyaluronic Acid as a Filler

Skin Renewal offers a treatment called Revanesse Shape, which uses hyaluronic acid as an injectable filler. It is engineered with Thixofix cross-linking technology, which gives it high viscosity and elasticity. This makes it suitable for deep volumising and shaping where lift and projection are needed.

Products That Deliver

After testing the new Hada Labo Hydrating Premium range, I can confirm it lives up to its promise. My dry skin benefited from long-lasting hydration, improved tone and a smoother appearance.

These are the products in the range:

Tokyo Premium Lotion Super Hydrator
Tokyo Premium Day Cream Intense
Premium Night Cream
Tokyo Face Sun Cream SPF50
Tokyo Sun Lotion SPF50

If smooth, plump summer skin is your goal, this range is worth exploring. Skincare is personal, so find what works for you. For me, these products remain a trusted choice.
