If you are a skincare geek like we are, you are no stranger to the popular ingredient; Hyaluronic Acid. Gaining popularity in the past few years, hyaluronic acid has become the number one choice of ingredients by every skincare enthusiast out there for dehydrated skin. In our hot weather, it’s no surprise that it is a favourite to many Malaysians as well. 

Let’s face it, hyaluronic acid is probably the most heard of ingredient out there. However, is everyone actually using it right? Do they REALLY know what it is? The truth is, this ingredient is often the key to getting you the much desired plump, and glowing skin. That is, if you are using it correctly. We’ve got bad news if you’re not because it can make your skin very upset when used wrong. 

With that said, Beauty Insider (yes, your beauty BFF) alongside Jumiso (a brand dedicated to making your skin smile), will equip you with all the information you need about hyaluronic acid. So don’t miss out and keep reading! 

What is Hyaluronic Acid? 

Your body naturally produces hyaluronic acid, also referred to as hyaluronan, which is a transparent, sticky substance. It facilitates tissue lubrication and affects numerous other biological systems and processes, including bone strength, skin health, and wound healing.

The largest amounts of it are found in, you guessed it, your skin. Hyaluronic acid molecules are so powerful at hydrating the skin and maintaining its moisture and dewiness throughout the day. They can attract up to 1,000 times their own weight in water! Hence, they are able to create the desired plumpiness of the skin, and even help with wrinkles and fine lines too. 

How Should I Use Hyaluronic Acid? 

Hyaluronic acid is part of so many ingredient lists out there. Although, leave-on products such as toners, serums, moisturisers, and essences will provide you with the best hydrating results.

If you have oily skin, experts recommend that you should use a gel or water based product that has hyaluronic acid. For dry skin on the other hand, choose oil based products to keep the hydration extra layered. There are products out there that are purely hyaluronic acid serums, with those you will need to layer it under your favourite moisturiser or face oil, or even both! 

The ingredient is safe to be used everyday. But, don’t put it on top of sunscreen or moisturiser as it will diminish its effects as it will not reach your skin.  

Hyaluronic Acid Product Recommendations

Now that you know all about the popular ingredient, let’s talk about the products. Our skin, no matter the type (combination, oily, sensitive, dry), needs hydration. Thus, we did a little digging and found Jumiso. 

Jumiso is a brand dedicated to making your skin smile. They have a variety of products to address the diverse skin issues and needs. Here however, we’re going to talk about their hyaluronic acid range; The Waterfull Series. This series is formulated to provide the ultimate hydration to your skin, creating a plump and healthy complexion. The series is powered by the waterfull 7-Complex Hyaluronic Acid where hyaluronic acids in small, middle, and high molecules can be absorbed into different layers of the skin to provide moisture to the deepest layers of the skin.

Let’s dive into the Waterfull Series! 

Jumiso Waterfull Hyaluronic Toner

The common misconception when it comes to toners is that they are drying, stripping, and overall the opposite of hydration. Toners are made to remove the excess oil and dirt on the skin, but it doesn’t mean that it can’t hydrate and give other benefits to your skin at the same time. 

The Jumiso Waterfull Hyaluronic Toner is a vegan certified toner that delivers intense moisture, and strengthens the skin’s barrier. Ceramides in the formulation locks up the moisture in the skin and protects the skin from external irritants with a ceramide barrier.
