Hyaluronic acid
100% PureHydration is key to La Maison Clayton Shagal’s philosophy, making it a must for our chemists to invest their research and development resources into this ultra-hydrating molecule to find the most effective formulation for maximizing the effects of its properties.
Hyaluronic acid supports collagen and elastin which is naturally present throughout the body. Found mainly in the dermis, in the extracellular matrix, hyaluronic acid helps with cell proliferation and maintaining skin firmness, which is its particularly important vocation for sensitive and dehydrated skin.
Like collagen and elastin, hyaluronic acid is essential to the structural integrity of the layers of the skin. Collagen is a significant moisturizer that speeds up the renewal of skin cells, while elastin makes skin firm and reduces redness. Hyaluronic acid works in tandem with collagen and elastin to moisturize, nourish and hydrate the skin.
Hyaluronic acid’s intense moisturizing capacity holds water in the tissue like a sponge. One hyaluronic acid molecule can bind and attract up to 1,000 times its weight in water. One of the reasons hyaluronic acid is so exceptionally moisturizing is that it combines with water to fill in the spaces between cells. It plays a key role in healing skin injuries and its antioxidant activity protects the skin against UV rays.
Hyaluronic acid is known not only in the aesthetics field for its hydrating, plumping and replenishing properties, but also in the medical field for its reparative properties.
The passage of time
Hyaluronic acid helps keep skin hydrated and improves its firmness.
As skin ages, hyaluronic acid gradually disappears from the epidermis but remains in the dermis. As it reduces with age, the quantity and quality in the dermis change. In fact, the skin dries out, becoming more fragile and wrinkles begin to appear. Gradually, the skin tissues loosens and the face starts to look older.
At age 20, your body has already diminished its production of hyaluronic acid and by the time you turn 50, your rate of hyaluronic acid production is cut in half.
What makes Clayton Shagal’s Hyaluronic Acid different
Clayton Shagal’s Hyaluronic Acids have the highest purity rate on the market.
Our Hyaluronic Acids are biotechnologically sourced (naturally fermented) by letting yeast ferment, instantly producing 100% pure Hyaluronic Acids.
La Maison Clayton Shagal has used this molecule in various creams for many years. After three years of intense research and development, our scientists have created the Hyaluronic Acid Serum, which combines three kinds of hyaluronic acid for complete, optimal hydration. Clayton Shagal’s serum holds water in every layer of the skin, offering unrivalled efficiency.
The results…
Clayton Shagal’s Hyaluronic Acids restore the skin’s natural resilience and protect against dehydration.
Low molecular weight acid: penetrates the dermis and contributes to cellular renewal by increasing fibroblast production, making the skin firm and deeply hydrated while acting as a filler.
Regular molecular weight acid: penetrates the basal barrier between the dermis and epidermis. It acts as an antioxidant and strengthens the epidermal barrier that actively protects the skin against external forces (free radicals) that cause the skin to age.
High molecular weight acid: penetrates and stores water in every stratum corneum of the epidermis which maintains hydration and improves the skin’s texture.
All in all, Clayton Shagal’s Hyaluronic Acids ensure intense and long-lasting in-depth and surface-level hydration for all skin types, giving the skin a plump, natural appearance and adding an immediate filling effect on the surface. Your skin will look beautiful for longer and become softer, smoother and firmer.
