If you've gotten a facial, visited an esthetician, or are skin-care obsessed like I am, you've probably heard of hyaluronic acid.

A lot of people don't know exactly how important it is to incorporate hyaluronic acid into your skin care regimen. Hint: Very Important

What It Does:

Hyaluronic Acid locks in moisture and keeps our skin hydrated and plump. As we get older, our skin begins to lose its elasticity, therefore losing its ability to retain moisture. Adding hyaluronic acid to your beauty routine, especially from a young age, can help skin stay firm and supple.

Also, it helps your skin look healthy and glowing which you know I LOVE.

If your skin is feeling and looking dry or dull, search the ingredients in your moisturizers and serums. If they don't contain hyaluronic acid, you're missing out on a crucial step.

How To Add It To Your Beauty Routine:

The easiest way to add hyaluronic acid innto your beauty routine is through your moisturizer.

Every morning I use Neutrogena's Hydro Boost Moisturizer which contains hyaluronic acid and keeps my skin super hydrated throughout the day. It also creates an amazing base layer for makeup, enabling my tinted moisturizer or foundation to glide on and blend much more easily.

Another way to add it to your beauty routine is with a sheet mask. Once a week, apply a sheet mask containing hyaluronic acid to help hydrate your skin, especially during times when you feel you need a boost of moisture.

If you're experiencing dry under eyes, hyaluronic acid eye creams are the perfect way to target that area and get rid of any dry, flaky skin.

Is your makeup drying you out? That happens to almost everyone. Lucky for you brands like Tarte incorporate hyaluronic acid into some of their concealers and foundations to keep you glowing ALL. DAY. LONG.
