• Hydrating Tri-Essentials Bundle • What is a Humectant? 💙💦 Humectants are ingredients that work by drawing water to the Stratum Corneum (the skin's surface) either from the atmosphere or deeper layers of the skin, to hydrate the surface! Hyaluronic Acid has superior humectant properties, it can act like a magnet to attract hydration deep within the skin's cells and can hold x1000 it's own weight in water! Glycerin is also a common humectant!
