The Secret Ingredient in Your Favourite Celebrity Skincare

Celebrities and movie stars tend to maintain a flawless look throughout the year. The effortless, yet glamorous look, portrayed by our favorite celebrities always gets us thinking about how someone with such a busy and stressed lifestyle could look so natural and flawless in every single picture. Sometimes it's filters and sometimes it's fillers but when they show themselves with no makeup, their glowing and radiant skin makes the fans wonder: How can they look like this?

What’s the secret?

Well, it’s not a secret anymore! More and more celebrities are talking about this secret ingredient, which not only gives you naturally flawless skin, but also helps you achieve a similar, effortless look, without any makeup. It plumps up your skin, makes it firmer and lifted and makes you look more youthful with each use. 

Want to know what it is? 

It’s hyaluronic acid. 

While there are many other ingredients that could help you achieve a glowy look, hyaluronic acid alone can work huge wonders. It’s an ingredient that you are sure to find in your favorite celebrity’s skin care routine. In fact, Khloe Kardashian said about hyaluronic acid: “This is like gold. I love it.”

So, what is hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid is naturally produced by the body and is found in the skin and tissues to help keep them moist and hydrated. It not only provides skin hydration but also maintains the flexibility, softness and radiance of the skin without any side effects. It has the ability to attract 1000 times more water compared to its volume, into your skin and also increases the production of new cells, leaving you with skin that feels plumped and healthy. 

How is hyaluronic acid used in skincare?

Hyaluronic acid can provide many benefits to your skin. It is a humectant, meaning it attracts and retains water into your skin, leaving it feeling much healthier and softer than before. The daily use of hyaluronic acid in your skincare routine could improve your skin's texture and leave it with a natural glow and youthfulness.

You can incorporate hyaluronic acid into your skincare routine through different products including moisturizers, serums, and lip balms. The Lip Luster, Leovard’s star product, and an absolute favourite amongst many lip filler practitioners, is one of the few products out there which has hyaluronic acid as its primary ingredient. It not only reduces fine lines and wrinkling, it helps you to hydrate and naturally plump up your lips, giving you the coveted pouty and sultry lips. 

What are the benefits of hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid has a long list of benefits which includes:

• Provides hydration
• Reduces fine lines and wrinkling 
• Reduces redness
• Helps combat eczema
• Retains moisture into the skin
• Heals acne scars
• Safe for all skin types

 When and how to use hyaluronic acid?

Since it is naturally produced by the body, hyaluronic acid is safe to use by pretty much everyone. You can start using it once you reach teen age to combat the acne that is quite common in those years. It can also help to reduce redness, inflammation and acne scars.

Hyaluronic acid should ideally be used twice a day and always after you have cleansed and exfoliated the skin, as the rubbing and cleansing motion can cause dryness and inflammation. Hyaluronic acid helps to restore the skin’s balance, making it soft and smooth while also combating redness and inflammation.  

Always apply hyaluronic acid on damp skin as that enables it to do its job of attracting moisture in the skin, followed by a generous and thick seal of moisturizer or face oil to retain the moisture into your skin.

Is hyaluronic acid suitable for all genders?

In today’s time, all celebrities despite their gender have included a skincare routine in their daily lives. Whether it's the 10 steps Korean skincare routine, the 2 step basic skincare regime or anything in between, the one ingredient that will always be present in their skin care products is hyaluronic acid. It may sometimes be in the form of a moisturizer and sometimes as a serum. But this ingredient is essential for a glowy and radiant looking skin that all celebrities sport.
