Hyaluronic acid is a renowned skincare ingredient, celebrated for its exceptional ability to hydrate and plump the skin. While many are familiar with its benefits, a common question arises: should hyaluronic acid products be stored in the fridge?

The Cool Touch: A Potency Preserver

Refrigeration offers several advantages for hyaluronic acid products:

• Enhanced Stability: Cooler temperatures can help maintain the molecular structure of hyaluronic acid, preventing degradation and preserving its potency over time. This is particularly beneficial for those with sensitive or reactive skin, as a well-preserved product is less likely to cause irritation.
• Improved Absorption: The cool sensation of a refrigerated product can temporarily constrict blood vessels, potentially enhancing the absorption of hyaluronic acid into the skin. This can lead to more visible results, such as reduced fine lines, wrinkles, and increased hydration.
• Soothing Sensation: Applying a chilled hyaluronic acid product can provide a refreshing and calming sensation, especially during hot weather or after a long day. This can help soothe irritated skin and reduce redness.
• Synergistic Effects: When combined with other skincare ingredients, such as rosehip oil and antioxidants, refrigerated hyaluronic acid can enhance their effectiveness. The cool temperature can help to stabilize these ingredients and prevent them from degrading.

NeuLuna's Innovative Delivery System

Brands like NeuLuna® have taken hyaluronic acid to the next level with innovative delivery systems. Their patented technology encapsulates hyaluronic acid in a protective, water-in-oil formulation, ensuring optimal absorption and stability. This means that even without refrigeration, NeuLuna® products can deliver exceptional results.

Refrigeration: A NeuLuna® Recommendation

While NeuLuna® products are formulated for optimal performance at room temperature, our research has shown that refrigerating them can provide even greater benefits. The cool temperatures can further enhance the product's stability and absorption, leading to improved results.

Understanding Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in the human body, primarily in the skin, connective tissues, and eyes. It is a powerful humectant, meaning it can attract and retain moisture. This ability makes hyaluronic acid an ideal ingredient for hydrating and plumping the skin.

The Science Behind Refrigeration

When hyaluronic acid is stored at room temperature, it can be exposed to fluctuations in temperature and humidity. These fluctuations can potentially degrade the hyaluronic acid molecules, reducing its effectiveness. By storing hyaluronic acid in the fridge, you can help to minimize these fluctuations and preserve the product's potency.

Conclusion

By storing your NeuLuna® hyaluronic acid product in the fridge, you can maximize its effectiveness and enjoy the full range of benefits this remarkable ingredient has to offer. Whether you have sensitive skin, are looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, or simply want to improve the overall health and appearance of your skin, refrigeration can be a valuable addition to your skincare routine.
