Sodium Hyaluronate Powder (Hyaluronic Acid)

High molecular weight Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid) powder is a powerful moisture-binding ingredient used in skincare formulations to hydrate, form a protective film, and improve skin smoothness.

Description

Sodium Hyaluronate, commonly known as Hyaluronic Acid, is a fine, water-soluble powder widely used in cosmetic and skincare formulations for its exceptional hydrating properties. It is the salt form of Hyaluronic Acid, allowing for better stability and deeper skin penetration.

When mixed with water, this powder transforms into a lightweight gel-like substance that helps attract and retain moisture on the skin. It works by binding water molecules, helping to keep skin hydrated, smooth, and visibly plumper. Because of its ability to hold many times its weight in water, it is a key ingredient in serums, creams, lotions, and masks.

Ideal for both beginners and experienced formulators, Sodium Hyaluronate powder can be easily incorporated into DIY skincare products or professional formulations. It is suitable for a wide range of skin types and is especially valued in routines focused on hydration and skin conditioning.
