Hyaluronic Acid for Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis)
A pure hydrator that holds water in your skin. Makes skin look plumper and smoother almost immediately.
Why it works for Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis)
Holds a huge amount of water (up to 1,000 times its weight) to hydrate skin on the surface and deeper down. Hyaluronic acid is something your skin makes naturally. The smaller-sized form sinks in and nudges your skin to make more filaggrin, a protein that eczema skin often lacks. Trials of hyaluronic acid moisturizers in kids and adults with eczema show less water loss, less eczema overall, and less itch.
How Hyaluronic Acid works
Polysaccharide humectant that binds up to 1000x its weight in water within the stratum corneum.
