L-Sodium Hyaluronate

L-Sodium Hyaluronate is the chirally correct and highly stable salt form of Hyaluronic Acid chosen by O COSMEDICS for its exceptional affinity with the skin. Being chirally correct means the ultra-small molecule is perfectly absorbed and recognised by the skin supporting hydration without irritation and ensuring visibly hydrated and glowing skin.

Due to its smaller molecular structure, L-Sodium Hyaluronate moves efficiently through the skin’s surface layers to bind and hold water. When moisture levels drop, skin can appear dull, feel tight and lose its natural bounce. By supporting hydration reserves this ingredient helps improve softness, plumpness and overall skin appearance. It also plays a vital role in enhancing the performance of peptides, antioxidants and other functional actives that depend on hydration for optimal activity.

Benefits For The Skin

  • Helps smooth the look of fine lines by supporting natural plumpness and suppleness
  • Supports optimal barrier function through improved moisture retention
  • Assists other active ingredients by maintaining ideal water balance

  • Suitable for all skin types including compromised skins

Form, Stability & Delivery

L-Sodium Hyaluronate is water soluble and reliably stable, allowing it to blend seamlessly into hydrating formulations. Its chirally correct structure improves skin affinity helping the molecule bind water efficiently.

How L-Sodium Hyaluronate Works - Made Simple

1. Hydration Reservoir
It binds to water molecules and stores them within the skin’s layers, supporting steady, long-lasting hydration so the skin feels consistently quenched and hydrated.

2. Barrier Strength and Comfort
Consistent hydration reinforces barrier health and function helping the skin defend against dryness and reducing the tight, sensitised feeling that often comes with dehydration.

3. Visible Plumping Support
Higher internal moisture levels help soften the look of fine lines and surface creases as the skin appears naturally fuller and smoother.

4. Enhances Active Ingredient Performance
A well-hydrated and resilient barrier allows peptides, vitamins and antioxidants to work more effectively
