HYDRA-MIST+ HYALURONIC ACID SPRAY (30ML)

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, derived from the aloe vera plant, is a widely used botanical ingredient in skincare and cosmetic formulations. This natural extract contains over 75 active compounds, including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and polysaccharides. Its primary components are acemannan and beta-glucomannan, which contribute to its soothing and hydrating properties.

Known for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract helps calm irritated skin and reduce redness. It also promotes wound healing by stimulating collagen production and enhancing skin cell regeneration. The extract's high water content and humectant properties make it an effective moisturizer, improving skin hydration and elasticity.

In skincare formulations, this ingredient is often used in concentrations ranging from 0.1% to 20%, depending on the desired effect and product type. It is compatible with most skin types and can be incorporated into various products, including moisturizers, serums, masks, and after-sun treatments. While generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience allergic reactions, particularly those sensitive to plants in the Liliaceae family.

Sodium PCA (Pyrrolidone Carboxylic Acid) is a naturally occurring component of human skin and a powerful humectant in skincare formulations. This water-soluble ingredient is derived from amino acids and plays a crucial role in maintaining skin hydration. Sodium PCA has the remarkable ability to attract and retain moisture, binding up to 250 times its weight in water.

In skincare products, Sodium PCA helps to increase the skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF), enhancing its ability to stay hydrated. It is particularly effective in improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines caused by dehydration. Due to its small molecular size, Sodium PCA penetrates the skin easily, providing deep hydration without feeling heavy or greasy.

This ingredient is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. It has a neutral pH and is non-irritating, making it an excellent choice for those with easily reactive skin. Sodium PCA also exhibits mild antimicrobial properties, potentially helping to maintain a balanced skin microbiome. In formulations, it synergizes well with other humectants like hyaluronic acid and glycerin, creating potent hydrating complexes.
