The Ultimate Guide to Hyaluronic Acid Serums: What They Are and How to Use Them
What Is Hyaluronic Acid and Why Does Your Skin Love It?
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in your body that acts as a magnet for moisture. It can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it an incredibly effective hydrator. But as we age, the natural levels of hyaluronic acid in our skin decrease, leading to dryness, fine lines, and loss of elasticity.
Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid:
- Deep Hydration: Attracts moisture to the skin, keeping it plump and supple.
- Anti-Aging Properties: Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by improving skin elasticity.
- Improves Skin Barrier Function: Strengthens the skin’s protective barrier, reducing sensitivity and redness.
- Lightweight and Versatile: Works for all skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin.
Our Hyaluronic Acid Serums
At Simple Body, we’ve crafted two high-performance serums that utilize the hydrating power of hyaluronic acid: the Wrinkle Defense Serum and the Barrier Defense Serum. Each serum is formulated with both high molecular weight (HMW) and low molecular weight (LMW) hyaluronic acid for multi-layer hydration.
Wrinkle Defense Serum
Our Wrinkle Defense Serum is a lightweight, hydrating serum designed to target fine lines and wrinkles while soothing the skin.
Key Ingredients:
- Hyaluronic Acid (HMW & LMW): Deeply hydrates and plumps the skin.
- Lavender and Chamomile Floral Waters: Calm and soothe sensitive or irritated skin.
- Aloe Vera: Hydrates and soothes, providing anti-inflammatory benefits.
- Vegetable Glycerin: Acts as a humectant, drawing moisture into the skin.
- Sodium Phytate: An antioxidant that fights free radicals.
Why You’ll Love It:
- Leaves skin feeling soft, hydrated, and refreshed.
- Perfect for those with dry, aging, or sensitive skin.
- Lightweight texture absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky residue.
Barrier Defense Serum
The Barrier Defense Serum is a gel-to-cream serum that not only hydrates but also repairs the skin’s natural barrier, making it ideal for oily, acne-prone, or sensitive skin.
Key Ingredients:
- Hyaluronic Acid (HMW & LMW): Provides deep hydration and plumps the skin.

- Squalane: A lightweight hydrator that mimics the skin’s natural oils.
- Green Tea Extract: Soothes and protects the skin with powerful antioxidants.

- Reduces redness and sensitivity while deeply hydrating.
Why Dual-Weight Hyaluronic Acid Matters
Both of our serums contain high molecular weight (HMW) and low molecular weight (LMW) hyaluronic acid, which work together to provide hydration at multiple levels of the skin.
- HMW Hyaluronic Acid: Sits on the surface of the skin, forming a hydrating barrier and delivering an immediate plumping effect.
- LMW Hyaluronic Acid: Penetrates deeper into the skin, providing long-lasting hydration and improving elasticity from within.
How to Use Hyaluronic Acid Serums in Your Routine
- Cleanse: Start with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and oil.
- Apply on Damp Skin: After cleansing, apply 1-2 pumps of the serum to damp skin. Hyaluronic acid works best when there’s water present to bind to.
- Follow with Moisturizer: Lock in hydration with a moisturizer that suits your skin type.
- Use Sunscreen: In the morning, finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin.
