Sodium Hyaluronate is a salt of Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic Acid is normally found in skin, connective and nerve tissue and compared to other natural and synthetic polymers, has the greatest capacity to hold water. It enhances the appearance of dry or damaged skin by reducing flaking and restoring suppleness. It appears as a fine white powder with no odor and can be used in the formulation of skin care products, lipsticks and eye and facial makeup
