Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found throughout the human body and in many living organisms, and today it is commonly produced through the fermentation of plant-derived sugars using naturally occurring microorganisms. Historically, it was first identified by scientists in the 1930s, with fermentation-based production later providing a sustainable, animal-free source for personal care products. Today, hyaluronic acid is widely used in all-natural lotions, creams, serums, and skin care formulations, where it helps attract and retain moisture while contributing to smooth, well-hydrated products.
